Installation
You need uv to run this
plugin like a binary. After uv is installed you can simply run
lightning-cli plugin start /path/to/persistent-channels.py
If you use systemd to start CLN, you must have uv in the PATH that systemd uses, which is likely different than the PATH from your shell. Most uv installation methods install uv into your user's home directory (~/.local/bin or ~/.cargo/bin), which systemd cannot access.
You can either:
Option 1: Install uv system-wide (recommended):
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sudo env UV_INSTALL_DIR="/usr/local/bin" sh
Option 2: Copy your existing user installation:
sudo cp "$(command -v uv)" /usr/local/bin/uv
Option 3: Configure your systemd service to use a custom PATH (see systemd documentation).
To verify uv is accessible to systemd:
sudo systemd-run --user --wait command -v uv
This should output /usr/local/bin/uv.
For general plugin installation instructions see the repos main README.md
Persistent Channels plugin
lightningd automatically tracks channels internally and will make
sure to reconnect to a peer if it has a channel open with it. However,
it only tracks the channel itself, it does not re-open a channel that
was closed.
The persistent channels plugin allows you to describe a number of channels you'd like to have open at any time and the plugin will attempt to maintain that state. The plugin keeps a list of desired channels that should be opened and operational and will check every 30 seconds if it needs to open a new channel, or re-open a channel that is currently being closed.
