lightning-hsmtool -- Tool for working with software HSM secrets of lightningd
=============================================================================
SYNOPSIS
--------
```bash
lightning-hsmtool method [ARGUMENTS]...
```
DESCRIPTION
-----------
**lightning-hsmtool** performs various operations on the `hsm_secret`
file used by the software HSM component of **lightningd**.
This can be used to encrypt and decrypt the `hsm_secret` file,
as well as derive secrets used in channel commitments.
METHODS
-------

*max\_channel\_dbid* is your own guess on what the *channel\_dbid* was,

It allows the use of passphrases, the ECHO mode in the terminal is disable for higher security. It currently supports "en", "es", "fr", "it", "jp", "zhs", "zht".

Checks that hsm_secret matchs a BIP39 pass phrase.
hsmtool: implement checkhsm. This gives a nice way to ensure your secret is the correct one. Also, we don't need to suppress VALGRIND for this test, now the output races are fixed. Changelog-Added: `hsmtool`: new command `checkhsm` to check BIP39 passphrase against hsm_secret. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

**dumponchaindescriptors** *hsm_secret* \[*password*\] \[*network*\]
Dump output descriptors for our onchain wallet.
doc: document output descriptors in hsmtool Touch a bit about it as a backup/recovery mechanism in the FAQ Signed-off-by: Antoine Poinsot <darosior@protonmail.com>

The descriptors can be used by external services to be able to generate
addresses for our onchain wallet. (for example on `bitcoind` using the
`importmulti` or `importdescriptors` RPC calls)
We need the path to the hsm_secret containing the wallet seed, and an optional
(skip using `""`) password if it was encrypted.
To generate descriptors using testnet master keys, you may specify *testnet* as
the last parameter. By default, mainnet-encoded keys are generated.
Makefile: Install `tools/hsmtool` as `lightning-hsmtool`. Changelog-Added: We now install `lightning-hsmtool` for your `hsm_secret` needs. See: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/issues/3717#issuecomment-644844594 It seems reasonable to add this to the standard install, and to document it properly as well, hopefully we can fill in the documentation better later on.

doc: force refresh of all manpages. The idea is that you regenerate the man pages in the same commit you alter them: that's how we know whether to try regenerating them or not (git doesn't store timestamps, so it can't really tell). Travis will now check this, so force them all to sync to this commit. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
