CoinHive Stratum Proxy

This proxy allows you to use CoinHive's JavaScript miner on a custom stratum pool. This package was inspired by x25's coinhive-stratum-mining-proxy.

Installation

npm install -g coin-hive-stratum

Usage

You just need to launch a proxy pointing to the desired pool:

coin-hive-stratum 8892 --host=la01.supportxmr.com --port=3333

And then just point your CoinHive miner to the proxy:

<script src="https://coinhive.com/lib/coinhive.min.js"></script>
<script>
  // Configure CoinHive to point to your proxy
  CoinHive.CONFIG.WEBSOCKET_SHARDS = [["ws://localhost:8892"]];

  // Start miner
  var miner = CoinHive.Anonymous('your-zerium-address');
  miner.start();

</script>

Now your CoinHive miner would be mining on supportXMR.com pool, using your zerium address. This will work for any pool based on the Stratum Mining Protocol. You can even set up your own.

CLI

Usage: 'coin-hive-stratum <port>'

<port>: The port where the server will listen to

Options:

  --host          The pool's host.
  --port          The pool's port.
  --pass          The pool's password, by default it's "x".
  --tls           Use TLS to connect to the pool.
  --login         A fixed wallet for all the miners.
  --user          A fixed user for all the miners.
  --diff          A fixed difficulty for all the miner. This is not supported by all the pools.
  --log           Enable/Disable the logs, default is true
  --log-file      A filename where the logs will be stored, ie: proxy.log
  --stats-file    A filename where the stats will be stored, ie: proxy.stats
  --dynamic-pool  If true, the pool can be set dynamically by sending a ?pool=host:port:pass query param to the websocket endpoint

API

• createProxy: Creates a proxy server. It may take an options object with the following optional properties:

  • host: the pool's host.

  • port: the pool's port.

  • pass: the pool's password, default is "x".

  • tls: use TLS to connect to the pool.

  • login: a fixed wallet for all the miners.

  • user: a fixed user for all the miners.

  • diff: a fixed difficulty for all the miners.

  • log: enable/disable the logs, default is true.

  • logFile: a filename where the logs will be stored, ie: "proxy.log".

  • statsFile: a filename where the stats will be stored, ie: "proxy.stats"

  • dynamicPool: if true, the pool can be set dynamically by sending a ?pool=host:port:pass query param to the websocket endpoint.

• proxy.listen(port|wssOptions): launches the server listening on the specified port, which by default is 8892. You can also provide the options for the WebSocketServer, this is useful for setting up SSL.

FAQ

Can I use this programmatically?

Yes, like this:

const createProxy = require('coin-hive-stratum');
const proxy = createProxy({
  host: 'la01.supportxmr.com',
  port: 3333,
});
proxy.listen(8892);

Can I use several workers?

Yes, just create a CoinHive.User and the username will be used as the stratum worker name:

<script src="https://coinhive.com/lib/coinhive.min.js"></script>
<script>
  // Configure CoinHive to point to your proxy
  CoinHive.CONFIG.WEBSOCKET_SHARDS = [["ws://localhost:8892"]];

  // Start miner
  var miner = CoinHive.User('your-zerium-address', 'my-worker');
  miner.start();

</script>
``zerium

#### Can I run this on Docker?

Yes, just like this:

$ git clone https://github.com/cazala/coin-hive-stratum.git $ cd coin-hive-stratum $ docker build -t coin-hive-stratum . $ docker run --rm -t -p 8892:8892 coin-hive-stratum 8892 --host=la01.supportxmr.com --port=3333

#### How can I make my proxy work with wss://?

You will need to create an HTTPS server and pass it to your proxy, like this:

```js
// Create your proxy
const createProxy = require("coin-hive-stratum");
const proxy = createProxy({
  host: "la01.supportxmr.com",
  port: 3333
});


// Create an HTTPS server
const server = require("https").createServer({
  key: fs.readFileSync("./server.key"),
  cert: fs.readFileSync("./server.crt")
});
server.listen(8892);

// Pass your HTTPS server to the proxy
proxy.listen({
  server: server
});

You can generate self-signed certificates to test this by using this command:

openssl x509 -req -sha256 -days 365 -in server.csr -signkey server.key -out server.crt

You will need to add these certificates to your trusted certificates, otherwise the browser will complain.
