Chapter Eighteen: Understanding Your Lighting Setup
ℹ️ NOTE: This is a draft in progress, so that I can get some feedback from early reviewers. It is not yet ready for learning.
In this chapter you'll be ready to begin working with the lightning-cli
command-line interface. But that first requires that you understand your c-lightning setup and its features, which is what will be explained with some examples and basic configuration.
For this and future chapters, we presume that you have a VPS with c-lightning installed, running lightningd
courtersy of Bitcoin Standup Scripts on Testnet.
Objectives for This Chapter
After working through this chapter, a developer will be able to:
- Demonstrate that their c-lightning Node is Installed and Up-to-date
- Use basic wallet Commands
- Setting up a channel.
- Pay an invoice
- Generate a payment request.
