A growing collections of shell scripts which ease the running of c-lightning c.f.: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning

This project is a collection of lightning-helpers which are small files (usually) written as shell scripts or in python which are supposed to ease the work with c-lightning.

currently there are two tools:

• listfunds is a small tool that gives you a nicer overview of your funds than the native lighting-cli listfunds API call
• pay_anyone_without_invoice is a tool that allows you to pay any lightning node by making a routed payment to yourself and drop a high routing fee for the node which you actually want to pay.

If you want to learn more about these tools visit my youtube channel at: https://www.youtube.com/user/RenePickhardt or send me message at https://twitter.com/renepickhardt
