How to test changes in rust-lightning Library

[mohamedawnallah]

Hey everyone,

I'm new to the rust-lightning codebase and eager to contribute to its growth. Recently, I successfully ran the ldk-sample node following the steps outlined in the Running a sample LDK node documentation, coupled with Polar LN Environments.

However, I'm seeking guidance on testing changes within the rust-lightning modular library. I'd greatly appreciate any insights on how to proceed with testing new features or fixes in this library. Specifically, I'm interested in understanding how to build a node from the current rust-lightning source code to test these changes.

Thanks in advance for your help! 🙏

I would discuss this on discord better. Thanks!
