So tired of waiting for StartOS 0.4.0?
Wish you could have your LND node generate an invoice anytime and anywhere?

run a container on your fart9 that connects your node to a vps! (ie breaks the security model 🤭)
all through an encrypted wireguard tunnel.

nginx routes LNURL requests that hit your VPS through the tunnel to the podman container and your node generates invoices.
works anywhere, even behind CGNAT

easy peasy

Internet → VPS (domain[.]tld:443)
└─ nginx proxies /[.]well-known/lnurlp/ & /pay[/]callback/
└─ WireGuard tunnel (10.0.0.1 ← 10.0.0.2)
└─ Podman container (--network host, --cap-add NET_ADMIN)
├─ lnaddrd[.]py (Python http server on :3441)
└─ wg-quick up (entrypoint)
└─ LND REST API (172.18.0.x:8080, auto-discovered)
