network-lightning

Library for interfacing with c-lightning API. Currently only works over TCP using socat:

sudo socat TCP-LISTEN:<PORT>,reuseaddr,fork UNIX-CLIENT:/path/to/lightning/lightning-rpc

example

module Main where

import           Control.Monad.IO.Class             (liftIO)

                                                     newAddr)
import           Network.Lightning.API.NodeInfo     (getInfo)
import           Network.Lightning.Client           (runTCPClient)
