@ericpp:

i am moving to a core lightning node for my podcast. I would love to run helipad to manage boost messages and streaming.

I see that support for CL is in progress?

https://github.com/Podcastindex-org/helipad/pull/92

is there anything i can do to help? testing? I also need to run this on a vps. Umbrel, etc don't cooperate with my home network and frankly this needs to be more robust. I see you have a docker build. anyone do this on a vps? Thanks for all you do for PC2

Add partial CLN support with potential for other node types in the future by ericpp · Pull Request #92 · Podcastindex-org/helipad

Adds partial support for CLN: CLN still doesn't store TLVs when storing invoices and payments (see ElementsProject/lightning#4470). However, they do now store a copy of the TLV into the descrip...

@mcintosh Why core lightning? Just curious but everyone I know in PC 2.0 is running a LND node.

@ChadF because I’m running this on a vps. Umbrel etc don’t work well on my home network ( isp issues). Pretty sure core is the only lightning setup that supports pruned bitcoin nodes. I allocate 30 gb to bitcoind so it doesn’t fill my disk.

And I like Adam Back.

To be fair mostly the first part but still - the dude is named in the btc white paper…

@mcintosh I haven't done much since opening that PR since most PC20 people are using LND.

The code does work, but relies on Core Lighting's hack of putting incoming payment TLVs into the invoice description field. Outgoing payment TLVs are not natively supported and require a plugin.

To get it fully working, I need to create a Core Lightning plugin that will store TLV information for all incoming and outgoing payments.

@ericpp ok I inderstand. If i can be of any help beyond actually writing the plugin let me know.

I could certainly help with any testing.
If I understood it I could write documentation.

I told Chadf in another comment why this is important to me. I know it’s not high priority but there is a use case I believe.
