Development

nix develop

This will launch a nix shell with a regtest bitcoind node as well as two lightning nodes.

In order to use the node first a channel will need to be opened.

  ln1 newaddr
  ln2 newaddr

  btc sendtoaddress <ln1 bitcoin address> 100
  btc sendtoaddress <ln2 bitcoin address> 100
  btc getnewaddress
  btc generatetoaddress 50 <btc address>

Connect ln nodes

  ln2 getinfo
  ln1 connect <pubkey of ln1> 127.0.0.1 15352

Open a channel from ln1 to ln2

  ln1 fundchannel id=<pubkey of ln2> amount=10000000

Open a channel from ln2 to ln1

  ln1 getinfo
  ln2 fundchannel id=<pubkey of ln1> amount=10000000

Generate blocks to confirm channels

  btc getnewaddress
  btc generatetoaddress 50 <btc address>

Start the mint, by default the mint will use ln1

  cargo r
