LIGHTNING-NOTIFICATION-WARNING(7)

💖 LIGHTNING-NOTIFICATION-WARNING(7) 💖

okay so bestie, listen — this is a page from the LIGHTNING-NOTIFICATION-WARNING part of the manual, section 7, and it's honestly so useful. grab a snack, we're learning what warning notifications are 🍓

---

✨ NAME ✨

warning — the notification that fires for warning-level log events 🎀

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So here's the vibe: the warning notification is the little messenger that informs you whenever lightningd emits a warning or error level event — specifically the kind that should be surfaced to plugins. it's giving "hey bestie, something happened and you should probably know about it" energy 💅

no cap, that's the whole point. if lightningd has something to say at that level, this notification is how plugins hear about it. periodt 🔥

---

🌸 NOTIFICATION PAYLOAD 🌸

here's what's inside the notification, every single field, don't skip any of these or i will know 🙈

• level (string) (one of "warn", "error") — the log level of the warning notification. so it's either "warn" or "error", no in-between, iykyk ⭐
• time (string) — the event time, as seconds since epoch, with subsecond precision. fancy precision, we love to see it ✨
• timestamp (string) — the event time in ISO 8601 format. (added v24.02) 💖
• source (string) — the source component that emitted the log entry. like, who's speaking please 👀
• log (string) — the original log message. the actual words, verbatim, iconic 💀
