# pyln-proto: Lightning Network protocol implementation
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This package implements some of the Lightning Network protocol in pure
|
||
|
|
python. It is intended for protocol testing and some minor tooling only. It is
|
||
|
|
not deemed secure enough to handle any amount of real funds (you have been
|
||
|
|
warned!).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Installation
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`pyln-proto` is available on `pip`:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
pip install pyln-proto
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Alternatively you can also install the development version to get access to
|
||
|
|
currently unreleased features by checking out the c-lightning source code and
|
||
|
|
installing into your python3 environment:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
git clone https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning.git
|
||
|
|
cd lightning/contrib/pyln-proto
|
||
|
|
python3 setup.py develop
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This will add links to the library into your environment so changing the
|
||
|
|
checked out source code will also result in the environment picking up these
|
||
|
|
changes. Notice however that unreleased versions may change API without
|
||
|
|
warning, so test thoroughly with the released version.
