ilp-connector-config v1.0.2

ilp-connector-config

A skeleton config for an ILP connector and some tools for mamnaging the config.

Installation

$ npm install -g ilp-connector-config

The content of ./etc/ilp-connector can be copied to /etc/ilp-connector on the connector server then modified as required. The content of ./home can be copied to the homedir of the user that will run ILP connector.

This can be automated by calling ilp-connector-config create.

ilp-connector

Supports 6 commands, create, test, restart, enable, disable and clean-channels

The following will copy the config skeleton into /etc/ilp-connector:

$ ilp-connector create

The following will enable the peer peer1:

$ ilp-connector enable peer1

The following will disable it:

$ ilp-connector disable peer1

The connector must still be restarted after changes. This can be done with:

$ ilp-connector restart

The config can also be tested first with:

$ ilp-connector test

The following will connect to the XRP ledger and look for all out going payment channels for this connector. For each of these it will look for incoming payment channels from the same account. If no incoming channels exist it will close the outgoing channels.

The first run will request that the channels are closed (which starts the expiry timer), the second run will finally close channels that have expired:

$ ilp-connector clean-channels

WARNING: This command asks no questions, it will close the outgoing channels it needs to without prompts.
