In trying to setup an account that would prefund its peer, I couldn't find any documentation on what a positive/negative balance represents or how I should set the settle_to, nor what units I should use. The best I could find was this in line the ETH example:
The settle_threshold and settle_to parameters control when settlements are triggered. The node will send a settlement when an account's balance reaches the settle_threshold, and it will settle for balance - settle_to.
We need to document, within the HTTP API specification and the ilp-cli help text (and maybe elsewhere, too?):
When settle_to gets triggered, and what a positive or negative balance represents
What units the settlement parameters need to be in, with a couple examples (I was using an account with asset scale 2 and I tried to set settle_to to 4.52 but the CLI gave me a confusing error until I changed it to 452. We should clarify this or change the API to use the standard, arbitrary precision representation of the asset, since it's more intuitive).
I've expanded our unit tests for that functionality here: 2f83e70. These should be helpful for someone trying to understand the usage and should probably be added as examples to the readmes
