The primary crate, lightning , is runtime-agnostic. Data persistence, chain interactions, and networking can be provided by LDK's sample modules, or you may provide your own custom implementations. More information is available in the About section. Status ------ The project implements all of the BOLT specifications, and has been in production use since 2021. As with any Lightning implementation, care and attention to detail is important for safe deployment. Communications for rust-lightning and Lightning Development Kit happen through our LDK Discord channels. Crates ----------- 1. lightning The core of the LDK library, implements the Lightning protocol, channel state machine, and on-chain logic. Supports no std and exposes only relatively low-level interfaces. 2. lightning-background-processor Utilities to perform required background tasks for Rust Lightning. 3. lightning-block-sync Utilities to fetch the chain data from a block source and feed them into Rust Lightning. 4. lightning-invoice Data structures to parse and serialize BOLT #11 Lightning invoices. 5. lightning-net-tokio Implementation of the rust-lightning network stack using the Tokio async runtime. For rust-lightning clients which wish to make direct connections to Lightning P2P nodes, this is a simple alternative to implementing the required network stack, especially for those ","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/lightningdevkit","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/lightningdevkit/rust-lightning/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
