|
|

\fBtxprepare\fR \fIoutputs\fR [\fIfeerate\fR] [\fIminconf\fR] [\fIutxos\fR]

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The \fBtxprepare\fR RPC command creates an unsigned transaction which
|
|
|
|
spends funds from c-lightning’s internal wallet to the outputs specified
|
|
|
|
in \fIoutputs\fR\.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The \fIoutputs\fR is the array of output that include \fIdestination\fR
|
|
|
|
and \fIamount\fR({\fIdestination\fR: \fIamount\fR})\. Its format is like:
|
|
|
|
[{address1: amount1}, {address2: amount2}]
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
|
|
[{address: \fIall\fR}]\.
|
|
|
|
It supports the any number of outputs\.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The \fIdestination\fR of output is the address which can be of any Bitcoin accepted
|
|
|
|
type, including bech32\.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The \fIamount\fR of output is the amount to be sent from the internal wallet
|
|
|
|
(expressed, as name suggests, in amount)\. The string \fIall\fR can be used to specify
|
|
|
|
all available funds\. Otherwise, it is in amount precision; it can be a whole
|
|
|
|
number, a whole number ending in \fIsat\fR, a whole number ending in \fI000msat\fR,
|
|
|
|
or a number with 1 to 8 decimal places ending in \fIbtc\fR\.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\fBtxprepare\fR is similar to the first part of a \fBwithdraw\fR command, but
|
|
|
|
supports multiple outputs and uses \fIoutputs\fR as parameter\. The second part
|
|
|
|
is provided by \fBtxsend\fR\.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\fIutxos\fR specifies the utxos to be used to fund the transaction, as an array
|
|
|
|
of "txid:vout"\. These must be drawn from the node's available UTXO set\.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.SH RETURN VALUE
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On success, an object with attributes \fIunsigned_tx\fR and \fItxid\fR will be
|
|
|
|
returned\. You need to hand \fItxid\fR to \fBtxsend\fR or \fBtxdiscard\fR, as the
|
|
|
|
inputs of this transaction are reserved until then, or until the daemon
|
|
|
|
restarts\.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\fIunsigned_tx\fR represents the raw bitcoin transaction (not yet signed)
|
|
|
|
and \fItxid\fR represent the bitcoin transaction id\.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On failure, an error is reported and the transaction is not created\.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
