LIGHTNING-HOOK-OPENCHANNEL(7) LIGHTNING-HOOK-OPENCHANNEL(7) NAME openchannel -- Hook fired when a peer proposes opening a channel using v1 protocol DESCRIPTION The openchannel hook is called whenever a remote peer tries to fund a chan- nel using the v1 protocol, after passing basic sanity checks. The payload mirrors the BOLT #2 open_channel message and may include addi- tional fields defined by the protocol. Plugins can reject the channel or modify certain parameters before accept- ing it. This is a chained hook: the first plugin returning a non-"continue" result terminates the chain. Mutation fields (close_to, mindepth, reserve) are only applied from the first plugin that sets them. Additional fields may be present in the request as defined by BOLT #2. Providing invalid values (e.g., invalid close_to address) will cause lightningd to exit. HOOK PAYLOAD * openchannel (object): * id (pubkey): The peer's node_id. * funding_msat (msat): Funding amount proposed by the peer. * push_msat (msat): Amount pushed to us at channel open. * dust_limit_msat (msat): Dust limit for outputs. * max_htlc_value_in_flight_msat (msat): Maximum HTLC value allowed in flight. * channel_reserve_msat (msat): Channel reserve required by the peer. * htlc_minimum_msat (msat): Minimum HTLC value. * feerate_per_kw (u32): Feerate in satoshi per kw. * to_self_delay (u32): The number of blocks before they can take their funds if they unilateral close. * max_accepted_htlcs (u32): Maximum number of HTLC's the remote is al- lowed to offer at once. * channel_flags (u8): Channel flags as defined in BOLT #7. * channel_type (object) (added v25.09): * bits (array of u32s): List of feature bit numbers that define the ne- gotiated channel type. Each value represents a feature bit as de- fined in BOLT #2.: * (u32, optional): Feature bit number. * names (array of strings): Human-readable names corresponding to each feature bit. Names are implementation-defined and may evolve over time.: * (string, optional): Name of the feature bit. * shutdown_scriptpubkey (hex, optional): Optional shutdown scriptPubKey proposed by the peer. HOOK RETURN * result (string) (one of "continue", "reject"): Whether to accept or re- ject the channel opening request. * error_message (string, optional): Optional error message sent to the peer when rejecting. * close_to (string, optional): Bitcoin address for mutual close output. Must be valid for the current chain or lightningd will exit with an er- ror. * mindepth (u32, optional): mindepth is the number of confirmations to re- quire before making the channel usable. Notice that setting this to 0 (zeroconf) or some other low value might expose you to double-spending issues, so only lower this value from the default if you trust the peer not to double-spend, or you reject incoming payments, including for- wards, until the funding is confirmed. (added v0.12.0) * reserve (sat, optional): reserve is an absolute value for the amount (in satoshi) in the channel that the peer must keep on their side. This en- sures that they always have something to lose, so only lower this below the 1% of funding amount if you trust the peer. The protocol requires this to be larger than the dust limit, hence it will be adjusted to be the dust limit if the specified value is below. (added v22.11) If result is present, and result is "reject": - error_message (string, op- tional) Core Lightning v26.06.1 LIGHTNING-HOOK-OPENCHANNEL(7)
