The uniform clearing price rate in parts per billion of the batch. It equals to the lowest included bid rate in the batch.
Returns the current Node Tier of a node, along with other information.
By default nodes listed in the Bos Score list are used to fill the bids, called
TIER_1 in the ratings. They are shortlisted according to: up time, inbound capacity, history, channel updates, ability to actively route (via probing).- Check for a rating of a public node:pool auction ratings [NODE_PUBKEY]
- The check the rating of the local node:$ pool auc r $(lncli getinfo|grep "identity"|cut -d'"' -f4){"node_ratings": [{"node_pubkey": "REDACTED_NODE_PUBKEY","node_tier": "TIER_1"}]}
- A channel buyer (Taker) can specify a bid to accept all tiers with
--min_node_tier 0--min_node_tier value the min node tier this bid should be matched with, tier 1 nodes are considered 'good', if set to tier 0, then all nodes will be considered regardless of 'quality' (default: 0)
Returns information about the next batch the auctioneer will perform.
Shows:
fee_rate_sat_per_kw: what the target fee rate cut off will beclear_timestamp: the blockheight of the next marker clearing attempt
$ pool auction nextbatchinfoExample:
{
"conf_target": 35,
"fee_rate_sat_per_kw": "27714",
"clear_timestamp": "1604406782"
}
For your order to be included in the next batch the
fee_rate_sat_per_kw should be above the cut off value.List the
fee_rate_sat_per_kw of your orders with:$ pool orders list | grep fee_rate_sat_per_kw
Returns information about a prior batch such as the clearing price and the set of orders included in the batch. The prev_batch_id field can be used to explore prior batches in the sequence, similar to a block chain.
last batch info:
$ pool auction snapshotquery the prior batches recursively:
# get the previous batch id
prev_batch_id=$(pool auc s |jq -r '.prev_batch_id')
# show the prior batch (just repeat the line to show the past batches)
prev_batch_id=$(pool auc s --batch_id $prev_batch_id|jq -r '.prev_batch_id') && pool auc s --batch_id $prev_batch_id
# show only the clearing price of the prior batch recursively:
prev_batch_id=$(pool auc s --batch_id $prev_batch_id|jq -r '.prev_batch_id') && pool auc s --batch_id $prev_batch_id|jq -r '.clearing_price_rate'
