💅 LIGHTNING-ASKRENE-UPDATE-CHANNEL(7) 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the lightning-askrene-update-channel page — that's the manual name, yes it's a mouthful, we deal 💖 It's a lightning-askrene-update-channel command situation and honestly? iconic.

✨ NAME ✨

askrene-update-channel — the command that lets you manipulate channel in a layer. lowkey powerful, highkey useful 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

askrene-update-channel layer short_channel_id_dir [enabled]
[htlc_minimum_msat] [htlc_maximum_msat] [fee_base_msat]
[fee_proportional_millionths] [cltv_expiry_delta]

that's it. that's the whole shape of it. very demure, very mindful 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Command added in v24.11. so yeah, it's a newer one — vintage girlies stay mad 😌

The askrene-update-channel RPC command overrides updates for an existing channel when the layer is applied. it's giving "i know better than the gossip, trust me" energy ✨

  • layer (string) — the name of the layer to apply this change to 🎀
  • short_channel_id_dir (short_channel_id_dir) — the channel and direction to apply the change to, bestie. direction matters, don't forget the direction 💀
  • enabled (boolean, optional) — whether the channel is usable at all. like, on or off, dead or alive, that kind of vibe
  • htlc_minimum_msat (msat, optional) — the minimum value allowed in this direction 🍓
  • htlc_maximum_msat (msat, optional) — the maximum value allowed in this direction. the ceiling. the limit. the cap 💅
  • fee_base_msat (msat, optional) — the base fee to apply to use the channel in this direction 💸
  • fee_proportional_millionths (u32, optional) — the proportional fee (in parts per million) to apply to use the channel in this direction. ppm girlies rise 🙈
  • cltv_expiry_delta (u16, optional) — the CLTV delay required for this direction ⏳

🔥 RETURN VALUE 🔥

On success, an empty object is returned.

like literally just {}. nothing. silence. the void. and honestly? that's the flex 🌈
