channeldb ========== [![Build Status](http://img.shields.io/travis/lightningnetwork/lnd.svg)] (https://travis-ci.org/lightningnetwork/lnd) [![MIT licensed](https://img.shields.io/badge/license-MIT-blue.svg)] (https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/blob/master/LICENSE) [![GoDoc](https://img.shields.io/badge/godoc-reference-blue.svg)] (http://godoc.org/github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/channeldb) The channeldb implements the persistent storage engine for `lnd` and generically a data storage layer for the required state within the Lightning Network. The backing storage engine is [boltdb](https://github.com/boltdb/bolt), an embedded pure-go key-value store based off of LMDB. The package implements an object-oriented storage model with queries and mutations flowing through a particular object instance rather than the database itself. The storage implemented by the objects includes: open channels, past commitment revocation states, the channel graph which includes authenticated node and channel announcements, outgoing payments, and invoices ## Installation and Updating ```bash $ go get -u github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/channeldb ```
