lnd connect URL

Zap-iOS can open URLs with the scheme lndconnect: to directly connect to remote nodes.

Syntax

[foo] means optional, <bar> are placeholders

lndconnect://<host>:<port>?[cert=<base64url DER certificate>&]macaroon=<base64url macaroon>

Javascript reference implementation

// open tls.cert file
var certFile = fs.readFileSync(os.homedir() + '/.lnd/tls.cert', 'utf8');

// remove '-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----', '-----END CERTIFICATE-----' and line breaks
var lines = certFile.split(/\n/);
lines = lines.filter(line => line != "");
lines.pop();
lines.shift();
var cert = base64url.fromBase64(lines.join(''));

// open macaroon file in base64 encoding
var macaroonPath = os.homedir() + '/.lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/testnet/admin.macaroon'
var macaroonData = fs.readFileSync(macaroonPath);
var macaroon = base64url(new Buffer(macaroonData));

var url = 'lndconnect://' + ip.address() + ':10009?cert=' + cert + '&macaroon=' + macaroon

Create and show a QR code using command line

This is useful when one doesn't want to bring dependencies.

echo 'lndconnect://example.com?cert='"`grep -v 'CERTIFICATE' tls.cert | tr -d '=' | tr '/+' '_-'`"'&macaroon='"`base64 admin.macaroon | tr -d '=' | tr '/+' '_-'`" | tr -d '\n' | qrencode -o /tmp/out.png

Example:
