lightning-askrene-listlayers -- Command to display information about layers

SYNOPSIS

askrene-listlayers [layer]

DESCRIPTION

Command added in v24.11.

The askrene-listlayers RPC command reports any modifications each layer (or, the layer specified) would make to the topology, if it were used for getroutes.

  • layer (string, optional): The name of the layer to report on.

RETURN VALUE

On success, an object containing layers is returned. It is an array of objects, where each object contains:

  • layer (string): The name of the layer.
  • persistent (boolean): Whether the layer is saved across restarts.
  • disabled_nodes (array of pubkeys):
    • (pubkey, optional): The id of the disabled node.
  • created_channels (array of objects):
    • source (pubkey): The source node id for the channel.
    • destination (pubkey): The destination node id for the channel.
    • short_channel_id (short_channel_id): The short channel id for the channel.
    • capacity_msat (msat): The capacity (onchain size) of the channel.
  • channel_updates (array of objects):
    • short_channel_id_dir (short_channel_id_dir): The short channel id and direction this update applies to.
    • enabled (boolean, optional): True if this can be used, false otherwise.
    • htlc_minimum_msat (msat, optional): The minimum value allowed in this direction.
    • htlc_maximum_msat (msat, optional): The maximum value allowed in this direction.
    • fee_base_msat (msat, optional): The base fee to apply to use the channel in this direction.
    • fee_proportional_millionths (u32, optional): The proportional fee (in parts per million) to apply to use the channel in this direction.
    • cltv_expiry_delta (u16, optional): The CLTV delay required for this direction.
  • constraints (array of objects):
    • short_channel_id_dir (short_channel_id_dir): The short channel id and direction
    • timestamp (u64, optional): The UNIX timestamp when this constraint was created.
    • maximum_msat (msat, optional): The maximum value which this channel could pass.
    • minimum_msat (msat, optional): The minimum value which this channel could pass.
  • disabled_channels (array of short_channel_id_dirs, optional):
    • (short_channel_id_dir, optional): The channel and direction which is disabled.
  • biases (array of objects, optional):
    • short_channel_id_dir (short_channel_id_dir): The short channel id and direction
    • bias (integer): The bias (-100 to +100)
    • description (string, optional): The bias (-100 to +100)
