π LIGHTNING-NOTIFICATION-CUSTOMMSG(7) π
okay so bestie, you're reading lightning-notification-custommsg(7) and honestly? it's a short one, we love a low-effort icon β¨ it's a whole manual page about one (1) notification, and she's serving main character energy anyway π
β¨ NAME β¨
custommsg β the notification for custom messages, periodt π
πΈ DESCRIPTION πΈ
so this notification literally got added in v24.02 β vintage-ish but still cute π¦
custommsg fires off a notification whenever your node receives a custom message from a peer. that's it, that's the vibe. someone out there is talking to your node in a language only your node understands and this is how you get the receipts π
β¨
π§ NOTIFICATION PAYLOAD π§
two little fields, both iconic, no notes:
peer_id(pubkey) β the id of the peer that sent the custom message. like, who even are they, but now you know π«Άpayload(hex) β the hex-encoded payload. heads up bestie, the first 2 bytes are the BOLT-8 message type, and everything after that is the message content. don't get it twisted π₯
and that's the whole page, no cap π short, sweet, slays. this lil beauty comes to you courtesy of Core Lightning v26.06.9 β go off, version number, we stan ππ
