To simply topup an instance with 10000 sats using c-lightning
bitclouds-topup.sh --host {host-name} --amount 10000 --wallet c-lightning
To topup an instance with 10000 sats only if current balance is below 30000 using lnd
bitclouds-topup.sh --host {host-name} --amount 10000 --max-balance 30000 --wallet lnd
By using cron it can be setup to automatically topup your instance when the balance has gone below the minimum wanted level. For example, this cron command will run the script every day at 1am. The script will topup the instance with 10000 sats only if the current balance is below 30000 and save the output to the provided log file. Note that it can be necessary to enter the full path of the commands when using crontab on Linux
