LIGHTNING-NOTIFICATION-SHUTDOWN(7)

💖 NAME 💖

shutdown — the notification for plugin shutdown (yes bestie, that's literally the whole name, it's giving minimalism 👑)

So like, this is the LIGHTNING-NOTIFICATION-SHUTDOWN page, manual section 7, and it's short short — but every word counts, so pay attention 🫶

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

The shutdown notification is the heads-up that lightningd sends to a plugin when it's shutting down. That's it. That's the message. lightningd is leaving the group chat 💅

The way this is supposed to go: when a plugin subscribes to this notification, it's expected to terminate its own process. Like, girl, read the room — the party's over, go home 🌙

⚠️ But listen — if the plugin does not terminate its own process, lightningd will kill the plugin's process after a timeout. Not a vibe check, an actual kill. So don't ghost the shutdown notification, bestie, it will not end well for you 😭💀

---

🎀 NOTIFICATION PAYLOAD 🎀

Literally nothing. The payload section is empty — no fields, no struct, no data, nada 🦋 The notification itself is the entire message, iykyk ✨

Okay that's the whole page, genuinely — short and iconic, main character energy in like 6 lines 🌸 This was LIGHTNING-NOTIFICATION-SHUTDOWN(7) from Core Lightning v26.06.9, and ngl the footer date didn't come along for the ride, but the version absolutely did 🎀 Stay safe, terminate your processes, love u bye 💜🧚
