DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The **sendinvoice** RPC command creates and sends an invoice to the
|
|
|
|
|
issuer of an *offer* for it to pay: the offer must contain
|
|
|
|
|
*send_invoice*; see lightning-fetchinvoice(7).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*offer* is the bolt12 offer string beginning with "lno1".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*label* is the unique label to use for this invoice.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*msatoshi* is optional: it is required if the *offer* does not specify
|
|
|
|
|
an amount at all, or specifies it in a different currency. Otherwise
|
|
|
|
|
you may set it (e.g. to provide a tip), and if not it defaults to the
|
|
|
|
|
amount contained in the offer (multiplied by *quantity* if any).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*timeout* is how many seconds to wait for the offering node to pay the
|
|
|
|
|
invoice or return an error, default 90 seconds. This will also be the
|
|
|
|
|
timeout on the invoice that is sent.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*quantity* is optional: it is required if the *offer* specifies
|
|
|
|
|
*quantity_min* or *quantity_max*, otherwise it is not allowed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
