SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
|
*lightning-cli* ['OPTIONS'] 'command'...
|

DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
|
*lightning-cli* sends commands to the lightning daemon.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
|
*--lightning-dir*='DIR'::
|
|
|
|
|
Set the directory for the lightning daemon we're talking to; defaults to
|
|
|
|
|
'$HOME/.lightning'.
|
|
|
|
|
*--rpc-file*='FILE'::
|
|
|
|
|
Named pipe to use to talk to lightning daemon: default is 'lightning-rpc'
|
|
|
|
|
in the lightning directory.
|
|
|
|
|
*--help*/*-h*::
|
|
|
|
|
Print summary of options to standard output and exit.
|
|
|
|
|
*--version*/*-V*::
|
|
|
|
|
Print version number to standard output and exit.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
COMMANDS
|
|
|
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
|
'lightning-cli' simply uses the JSON RPC interface to talk to 'lightningd',
|
|
|
|
|
and prints the results. Thus the commands available depend entirely on the
|
|
|
|
|
lightning daemon itself.

BUGS
|
|
|
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
|
This manpage documents how it should work, not how it does work. The
|
|
|
|
|
pretty printing of results isn't pretty.
