c-lightning-REST Listening for paid invoices

Great work on the library! Are there plans to including a websocket to subscribe to invoices that are paid?

Thanks @LightningK0ala No plan yet. Will explore this requirement more.

@saubyk FWIW now that you support plugin mode you can listen to notifications such as invoice_payment ;-) https://lightning.readthedocs.io/PLUGINS.html#invoice-payment

This could help: https://github.com/btcpayserver/BTCPayServer.Lightning/blob/dee2f2809d31ec7681b0b97b96fb7a610993b18e/src/BTCPayServer.Lightning.CLightning/CLightningClient.cs#L418

You could just run this plugin, there would really be no benefit to including here unless for some reason you are running as a service and can not use plugins? Of course the plugin is newer than the last comment in this thread so maybe it could be the solution.

We run C-lightning-rest as a standalone service in its own docker container so we cannot have a plugin

It was resolved a while back. Closing it now.
