This is a simple curses GUI for the lightning-cli for the Blockstream c-lightning Lightning Network implementation.
These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.
This software will only be of use to people that have a bitcoin node (or access to one) and a Lightning Network node running. Additionally, you'll need to have nodejs (including npm).
Give examples
Installation of Lightning Curse is extremely simple. There are only two steps.
- Clone this repository
git clone https://github.com/craigsailor/lightning_curse
- Install the required libraries
cd lightning_curse
npm install
Now that you've done that, start it with the command npm start
One footnote: you do need to configure the deps/_settings.json with the full path to your lightning-cli binary. But don't worry. If you don't the software will tell you that.
