Electrs: Donation address and server message?

[BlackHatCoiner]

I'm almost done with Electrs' setup. What's left is a donation address and a fancy server message. I remember how you could do it in ElectrumX, but in Electrs I have no clue. I've searched for it, but didn't actually find anything related with those two. It should be defined in the configuration file.

See yourself:

I'm quite shy to open this request as a “new feature” in their github (since it's not a bug), so that's why I'm asking you (first).

A quick search over the internet has shown that Electrs uses "banner":

The server I use (electrs), just provides a "Banner" option that is just free text that can be specified at runtime or in a config file that is the message shown in the Electrum console and you can add a donation address in that message.

and it should be configurable even as command line flag (you can search for banner in release notes).
Maybe it's a start.

I was scrolling through their github and noticed it was a wallet too (the server), have you checked it doesn't already have an address from that associated with donations.

But, what's the command line flag?

I used to run Electrs in the past, IIRC, there was no donation address parameter like other electrum node implementations have... So it's pretty normal you cannot find this option... My memory is not that good, but i vaguely remember going trough the same motions as you're going trough, only to find out the parameter just isn't there...

I think that's:

Code:

--server-banner <server_banner>
            The banner to be shown in the Electrum console [default: Welcome to electrs 0.7.0 (Electrum Rust Server)!]

I've found the info on this page: https://base.shiftcrypto.ch/applications/electrs.html

Thanks @NeuroticFish!
