+# BTCPYSERVER
+BTCPayserver is incredibly bloated. The goal of BTCpyserver is to act as a lightweight bitcoin payment system for your website.
+
+# Installation
+This should be easy to install.
+
+# Architecture
+btcpysever
+-site/
+--website.php
+-invoice/
+--main.py
+--database.py
+--price_feed.py
+-btc_pay/
+--bitcoind.py
+--clightning.py
+-success/
+--success.py
+-failure
+--failure.py
+-main.py
+
+
+# Minimum requirements for proof of concept
+Requires end-to-end payment, handling both success and failure
+- PHP invoice page, could everything be php...?
+- Not PHP, need something that can dynamically show the progress!
+- Feedback: timeleft, confirmations, etc.
+- integrate with bitcoind, monitor transactions
+-
+
+
+
+# On php post,
+# Call btcpy with invoice commands
+# Invoice is in USD (default) and converts automatically to BTC
+# conversion_to_usd.py
+# Call bitcoind to create a new address
+# Save invoice with address to database
+ - Pandas
+ - SQL?
+ - Other?
+# read address form database back:
+# Pass address back to website
+# Wait for user send...
+
+# btc_pay
+# Check bitcoind mempool every 5 seconds for incoming transactions,
+# wait for x confirmations (x also determines invoice_timeout)
+# After x confirmations, return as paid to website and unlock/call any other function. This could even be a custom script like sale_success_command.sh (link to digital good, call other APIs)
+# Need to integrate with at least 1 shop, woocommerce, as a proof of concept.
+
+# lighting_pay
+# Same but integrate c_lightning.py for proof of concept.
+
+
+# success/
+Payment success
+Display on website as successfuly paid, write to database to confirm payment.
+Navigate elsewhere by calling script from `sales/*.py`
+This script will control what happens after payment confirmation, can integate many shops / styles.
+
+# failure/
+Also customisable!
+Times out after XX minutes, (depend on confirmations required).
+Default:
+ - Add button to recreate invoice
+ - Recalculates value request.
+ -
