lntop
lntop is an interactive text-mode channels viewer for Unix systems.
*lntop-v0.1.0*
Install
Require the go programming language (version >= 1.13)
Raspberry Pi users: be aware that Raspbian ships with Go 1.11 ( see #30 )
git clone https://github.com/edouardparis/lntop.git
cd lntop && go install ./...
With Go version >= 1.16, you can use go-install
go install github.com/edouardparis/lntop@latest
Config
First time lntop is started, a config file .lntop/config.toml is created in the user's home directory. Change address, cert path and macaroon path according to your setup.
The following environment variables, if present, will be used in the initial config file instead of the defaults, so you won't have to have lntop fail on the first start and then manually edit the config file: LND_ADDRESS, CERT_PATH, MACAROON_PATH.

[network.aliases]
# Not all peers have aliases set up. In order to remember who is whom, pubkeys can be annotated.
# "Forced" aliases will be printed in a different color to be distinguished from network advertised aliases.

Routing view
Routing view displays screenful of latest routing events. This information
is not persisted in LND so the view always starts empty and is lost once
you exit lntop.
The events are in one of four states:
active- HTLC pendingsettled- preimage revealed, HTLC removedfailed- payment failed at a downstream nodelinkfail- payment failed at this node
Docker
If you prefer to run lntop from a docker container, cd docker and follow README there.
