We have the same helpers for writing and reading a wire.Outpoint type defined separately in a couple places. We will want to use these from the graph db package soon though so instead of defining them again there, this commit unifies things and creates a single exported set of helpers. The next commit will make use of these.
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, 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
