First, how we record "our_funds" and then apply pushes vs lease_fees (for liquidity ad buys/sales) was exactly opposite. For pushes we were reporting the total funded into the channel, with the push representing how much we'd later moved to the peer. For lease_fees we were rerporting the total in the channel, with the push representing how much was already moved to the peer. We fix this (from a view perspective) by re-adding lease fees to what's reported in the channel funding totals. Since this is now new behavior (for leased channel values), we added new fields so we can take the old field names thru a deprecation cycle. We also make it possible to differentiate btw a push and a lease_fee (before they were all the same), by adding to new fields to `listpeers`: `fee_paid_msat` and `fee_rcvd_msat`. This allows us to avoid math in the bookkeeper, instead we just pick the numbers out directly and record them. Fixes #5472 Changelog-Added: JSON-RPC: `listpeers` now has a few new fields for `funding` (`remote_funds_msat`, `local_funds_msat`, `fee_paid_msat`, `fee_rcvd_msat`). Changelog-Deprecated: JSON-RPC: `listpeers`.`funded` fields `local_msat` and `remote_msat` are now deprecated.
pyln-testing: A library to write tests against Core Lightning
This library implements a number of utilities that help building tests for Core Lightning nodes. In particular it provides a number of pytest fixtures that allow the management of a test network of a given topology and then execute a test scenarion.
pyln-testing is used by Core Lightning for its internal tests, and by the
community plugin directory to exercise the plugins.
Installation
pyln-testing is available on pip:
pip install pyln-testing
Alternatively you can also install the development version to get access to currently unreleased features by checking out the Core Lightning source code and installing into your python3 environment:
git clone https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning.git
cd lightning/contrib/pyln-testing
poetry install
This will add links to the library into your environment so changing the checked out source code will also result in the environment picking up these changes. Notice however that unreleased versions may change API without warning, so test thoroughly with the released version.
