πŸ’… LIGHTNING-NOTIFICATION-CUSTOMMSG(7) πŸ’…

okay so bestie, you're reading lightning-notification-custommsg(7) and honestly? it's a short one, we love a low-effort icon ✨ it's a whole manual page about one (1) notification, and she's serving main character energy anyway πŸŽ€

✨ NAME ✨

custommsg β€” the notification for custom messages, periodt πŸ’Œ

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so this notification literally got added in v24.02 β€” vintage-ish but still cute πŸ¦‹

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 πŸ’…βœ¨

🧚 NOTIFICATION PAYLOAD 🧚

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 🫢
  • payload (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 πŸ”₯

and that's the whole page, no cap 😭 short, sweet, slays. this lil beauty comes to you courtesy of Core Lightning v26.06.9 β€” go off, version number, we stan πŸ‘‘πŸ’œ
