You should be able to access to https://YOURDOMAIN.COM/.well-known/lnurlp/USERNAME and get a valid LUD-06 JSON response.

Now your Lightning address is configured as follow [email protected]

In .env config file or docker-compose environment:

LIGESS_LN_BACKEND=LND
LIGESS_LND_REST=https://yourLNDRestAPI.com # can be an onion url
LIGESS_LND_MACAROON=hex macaroon with createinvoice

In .env config file or docker-compose environment:

LIGESS_ECLAIR_REST=http://eclair_rest_api # can be an onion url
LIGESS_ECLAIR_LOGIN=login
LIGESS_ECLAIR_PASSWORD=password

In .env config file or docker-compose environment:

LIGESS_LN_BACKEND=LNbits
LIGESS_LNBITS_DOMAIN=https://lnbits.com # can be replaced by your own LNbits isntance url
LIGESS_LNBITS_API_KEY=this1is2an3example # can be found at the right of your wallet page, under "API info" > "Invoice/read key"

For the standalone install, be sure to have Tor running on your computer.

For the Docker install, add (or uncomment) the following lines in 'docker-compose.yml` in order to run Tor as a Docker container:

  tor:
    image: lncm/tor:latest
    restart: on-failure
    command: --SocksPort 0.0.0.0:9050
    expose:
      - 9050

Then specify the Tor proxy URL in .env config file or docker-compose environment:

LIGESS_TOR_PROXY_URL=socks5h://127.0.0.1:9050 # standalone installation
# or
LIGESS_TOR_PROXY_URL=socks5h://tor:9050 # docker installation
