|
lightning-pay - Protocol for sending a payment to a BOLT11 invoice
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
*pay* 'bolt11' ['msatoshi'] ['description'] ['riskfactor']
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
The *pay* RPC command attempts to find a route to the given destination,
|
|
and send the funds it asks for. If the 'bolt11' does not contain an amount,
|
|
'msatoshi' is required, otherwise if it is specified it must be 'null'. If
|
|
'bolt11' contains a description hash ('h' field) 'description' is
|
|
required, otherwise it is unused. The 'riskfactor' is described in detail
|
|
in lightning-getroute(7), and defaults to 1.0.
|
|
|
|
The response will occur when the payment fails or succeeds. Once a
|
|
payment has succeeded, calls to *pay* with the same 'bolt11' will
|
|
succeed immediately.
|
|
|
|
RETURN VALUE
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
On success, this returns the payment 'preimage' which hashes to the
|
|
'payment_hash' to prove that the payment was successful.
