A collection of plugins for c-lightning to do convenient things. At the moment the utilities primarily perform useful filter and aggregation, but the embeded library can be extended for many things.

Please contribute ideas!

Start lightningd with the plugin-dir option pointing to this repository

lightningd --plugin-dir <path to this repo>

Alternatively you can add a line to the c-lightning config (~/.lightning/config)

...
plugin-dir=<path to this repo>

• balance : Aggregated on-chain balance and channel balance information. Still a work in progress...
• nodestats : Get statistical information about a particular node, akin to 1ML stats
• channelstats : Get stats about channels
• invoicestats : Get stats about invoices
• paymentstats : Get stats about payments
• quickfund: Use onchain funds to fund amount to num_channels, simply creating channels with top capacity nodes. This is not recommended for mainnet as it's a bad strategy.
• closeall : Close all active channels, with option to force close after timeout
• getnetworkinfo : Get statistical information about the current state of the network
• filterchannels: Filter channels by various parameters

To pretty print the JSON, simply pipe the output to jq

lightning-cli balance | jq

• Create Circular Route
• Auto Balance Channels
