General Plugin Installation

download and install go

git clone https://github.com/rsbondi/clightning-go-plugin.git

cd clightning-go-plugin

# the DIRECTORY below is for the plugin you want to build
# example if you want to build remoteRPC plugin, use that directory
# this will build for your current architecture, for others see go documentation
go build -o path/to/where/you/want DIRECTORY

Once the plugin is built, there are several ways to use it.

Add plugin info to the config file plugin=path/to/plugin

Also in the above link, you can specify plugin-diroption and put the plugin there, or note from the ling you can also use the defualt plugin directory.

In addition to the config file,you can also add these options when launching the daemon

lightningd --plugin=path/to/plugin [other options]

or --plugin-dir as command line option

Additionally with version 0.7.2 forward, you can use the cli/rpc to launch

note

The old directory was my initial attempt at creating a plugin module for clightning but glightning is a much more complete effort of what I intended to achieve, I suggest using it and see no need for me to continue with a duplicate effort, but keeping for reference examples
