Expiring old nodes #27

Closed laanwj closed 6 years ago

laanwj commented 6 years ago

Do old nodes ever expire and disappear from the view? I had to re-initialize my node at some point, and now it has been listed doubly for almost two months (the old instance without any channels).

As explained in #20, this is an issue with LND as it does not prune old graph nodes. Maybe it does now, I'm still running quite an old version. I could manually filter nodes by last_update field, but I think they can still be useful for historic purposes.

Personally I think this clutters the graph and it would be useful at least as an option. But ok, closing this if this is already resolved in #20.
