dcrlncli sendpayment - Send a payment over lightning.
Usage
dcrlncli sendpayment [command options] dest amt payment_hash final_cltv_delta
or
dcrlncli sendpayment --pay_req=[payment request]
Description
Send a payment over Lightning. One can either specify the full parameters of the payment, or just use a payment request which encodes all the payment details.
If payment isn’t manually specified, then only a payment request needs
to be passed using the --pay_req argument.
If the payment is manually specified, then all four alternative arguments need to be specified in order to complete the payment:
--dest=N--amt=A--final_cltv_delta=T--payment_hash=H
The --debug_send flag is provided for usage purely in test
environments. If specified, then the payment hash isn’t required, as
it’ll use the hash of all zeroes. This mode allows one to quickly test
payment connectivity without having to create an invoice at the
destination.
