# Unidrectional Payment Channels

# Payment Channels
|
||||
|
||||
This module implements simple but feature complete unidirectional payment channels. Channels can be opened by a sender and closed immediately by the receiver, or by the sender subject to a dispute period. There are no top-ups or partial withdrawals (yet). Channels support multiple currencies.
|
||||
Payment channels are designed to enable high speed and throughput for transactions while requiring no counter-party risk.
|

|
||||
This initial implementation is for unidirectional channels. Channels can be opened by a sender and closed immediately by the receiver, or by the sender subject to a dispute period. There are no top-ups or partial withdrawals (yet).

# Installation and Setup
|
||||
|
||||
#### Who this guide is for
|
||||
The blockchain code currently consists of a full node daemon (`kvd`) and it's command line interface (`kvcli`).
|
||||
|
||||
Full nodes are fairly resource intensive and are designed to be run continuously on servers, primarily by people validating the network. While it is possible to run locally it is not recommended unless for development purposes. In the future light clients will enable secure transactions for clients.
|
||||
|
||||
A **full node** syncs with the blockchain and processes transactions. A **validator** is a full node that has declared itself to be a "validator" on chain. This obligates it to participate in consensus by proposing and signing blocks and maintaining uptime. By not following the protocol, the validator's stake will be slashed.
|
||||
|
||||
Use the following instructions to set up a full node, and to optionally declare yourself as a validator.
|
||||
|
||||
## Install
|
||||
|
||||
Requirements: go installed and set up (version 1.10+).

||||
@ -32,38 +43,13 @@ Requirements: go installed and set up (version 1.10+).

dep ensure -vendor-only
|

3. Install the code
|
||||
|
||||
go install ./cmd/kvd
|
||||
go install ./cmd/kvcli
|
||||
|
||||
<!--### Docker
|
||||
|
||||
Requirements: docker installed.
|
||||
|
||||
No installation necessary, just prepend commands with `docker run kava/kava`. TODO name necessary to avoid new contianer being created each time?
|
||||
|
||||
This will use our docker container `kava/kava` and store all blockchain data and keys within the container. -->
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- To store this data outisde the conatiner, attach volumes to the container:
|
||||
|
||||
docker run --rm -v $HOME/.kvd:/root/.kvd -v $HOME/.kvcli:/root/.kvcli kava/kava <further commands>
|
||||
|
||||
Now blockchain data will be stored in `$HOME/.kvd` and keys in `$HOME/.kvcli`. Also the `--rm` flag removes the contianer after each run.

You can send transactions on the testnet using our node without yncing a local node.
