SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**listpeers** \[*id*\] \[*level*\]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The **listpeers** RPC command returns data on nodes that are connected
|
|
|
|
|
|
or are not connected but have open channels with this node.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Once a connection to another lightning node has been established, using
|
|
|
|
|
|
the **connect** command, data on the node can be returned using
|
|
|
|
|
|
**listpeers** and the *id* that was used with the **connect** command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If no *id* is supplied, then data on all lightning nodes that are
|
|
|
|
|
|
connected, or not connected but have open channels with this node, are
|
|
|
|
|
|
returned.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Supplying *id* will filter the results to only return data on a node
|
|
|
|
|
|
with a matching *id*, if one exists.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Supplying *level* will show log entries related to that peer at the
|
|
|
|
|
|
given log level. Valid log levels are "io", "debug", "info", and
|
|
|
|
|
|
"unusual".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If a channel is open with a node and the connection has been lost, then
|
|
|
|
|
|
the node will still appear in the output of the command and the value of
|
|
|
|
|
|
the *connected* attribute of the node will be "false".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The channel will remain open for a set blocktime, after which if the
|
|
|
|
|
|
connection has not been re-established, the channel will close and the
|
|
|
|
|
|
node will no longer appear in the command output.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
RETURN VALUE
|
|
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On success, an object with a "peers" key is returned containing a list
|
|
|
|
|
|
of 0 or more objects.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Each object in the list contains the following data:
|
|
|
|
|
|
- *id* : The unique id of the peer
|
|
|
|
|
|
- *connected* : A boolean value showing the connection status
|
|
|
|
|
|
- *netaddr* : A list of network addresses the node is listening on
|
|
|
|
|
|
- *globalfeatures* : Bit flags showing supported global features (BOLT \#9)
|
|
|
|
|
|
- *localfeatures* : Bit flags showing supported local features (BOLT \#9)
|
|
|
|
|
|
- *channels* : An list of channel id’s open on the peer
|
|
|
|
|
|
- *log* : Only present if *level* is set. List logs related to the
|
|
|
|
|
|
peer at the specified *level*
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If *id* is supplied and no matching nodes are found, a "peers" object
|
|
|
|
|
|
with an empty list is returned.
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
{ "code" : -32602, "message" : "'id' should be a pubkey, not '...'" }
