python-lnd-grpc 0.0.5

grpc client for lnd python version 3.6

Install python package locally from pypi:

import python_lnd_grpc

Initiate the connector class

lightning = python_lnd_grpc.LNDMethods()
walletunlocker = python_lnd_grpc.WalletUnlocker()

Use methods

info = lightning.getinfo()
print(info)

Custom connector object

User can modify connector object in cases when connection to remote lnd node is needed (instead of local one), specifying custom parameters, like paths and file names:

lightning = python_lnd_grpc.LNDMethods(
    tls_file_path = "~/.lnd/",
    tls_file_name = "remote.cert", 
    custom_tls_path_full = "~/.lnd/fullpath.cert"
    macaroon_filename = "remote.macaroon",
    macaroon_path = "~/.lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/",
    custom_macaroon_path_full = "~/.lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/mainnet/full_path.macaroon"
    grpc_host = "192.168.0.199",
    grpc_port = "10009",
    network = "mainnet"
)

In case of connecting to remote lnd node, the grpc setting in lnd.conf has to be set to listening:

rpclisten=0.0.0.0:10009
