LSP Client Libary

Description

Blocktank is an LSP that allows businesses, apps, or online platforms to integrate, automate, and monetize services from your Lightning node. This includes channel configuration, channel purchases, channel info and more.

For widget and complete code samples see lsp-ui

Getting started

yarn add @synonymdev/lsp-client
#or
npm i -S @synonymdev/lsp-client

Usage

import bt from '@synonymdev/lsp-client';

// Choose network
bt.setNetwork('mainnet'); // Options are 'mainnet' and 'regtest'

// Get all node info
const info = await bt.getInfo();

// 1. Create channel order
const buyRes = await bt.createOrder({
    lspBalanceSat: 100000,
    channelExpiryWeeks: 6,
    clientBalanceSat: 0
});

// 2. Make payment using one of the provided methods
const {onchain, bolt11Invoice} = buyRes.payment;

// 3. Get status and details for the current channel order

const {state, payment} = order;

// 4. Open channel once order.payment.state === 'paid'
await bt.openChannel({
