If you want to decode your lightning invoice you should use `lightning-cli decodepay ` command that receives a string and checks and parses as specified by the [BOLT 11 specification](https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lightning-rfc/blob/master/11-payment-encoding.md).
On success it returns an object with the following fields:
* currency: Currency.
* timestamp: the UNIX-style timestamp of the invoice.
* expiry: the number of seconds this is valid after timestamp.
* payee: the public key of the recipient.
* payment_hash: the payment hash of the request.
* signature: the DER-encoded signature.
* description: Description.
