NOT UNDER ACTIVE DEVELOPMENT

Note that this miner was only intended to be a temporary solution in the early days of Warthog and to serve as a reference for miner devs. There are probably better miners available today, see here.

📦 What is in the box?

  • GPU+CPU Miner for Janushash

💻 System Requirements

  • Linux
  • gcc11 or newer
  • meson
  • ninja
  • opencl

Note: Ubuntu 20.04 does not meet these requirements.

😵‍💫 BUILD INSTRUCTIONS

  • Install dependencies (gcc, meson, ninja): sudo apt install meson ninja-build build-essential
  • Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/CoinFuMasterShifu/janusminer
  • cd into the repo: cd janusminer
  • Create build directory: meson build . (meson build . --buildtype=release for better performance)
  • cd into build directory: cd build
  • [Optional] For old OpenCL headers (like on Ubuntu 20.04):
    • meson configure -Dopencl-legacy=true
  • Compile using ninja: ninja

Docker build

System Requirements

  • Linux
  • Docker

Build for Linux

Ubuntu 18.04
  • Run DOCKER_BUILDKIT=1 docker build . -f Dockerfiles/Dockerfile_Ubuntu18 --output build in the repo directory.
Ubuntu 20.04
  • Run DOCKER_BUILDKIT=1 docker build . -f Dockerfiles/Dockerfile_Ubuntu20 --output build in the repo directory.
Ubuntu 22.04
  • Run DOCKER_BUILDKIT=1 docker build . -f Dockerfiles/Dockerfile_Ubuntu22 --output build in the repo directory.

Binaries are located in ./build directory.

▶️ USAGE

  • Linux only at the moment
  • Compile with meson/ninja
  • Run the miner (use some restarter in case it crashes)
  • In case you are unsure, things should work exactly as in this Warthog node guide

General Options

Parameter Description
--help Help screen.
-V, --version Print version and exit.
-a,
--address=WALLETADDRESS		 Specify wallet address to mine on.
--gpus=STRING Specify GPUs as comma separated list like "0,2,3".
By default all GPUs are used.
-t, --threads=INT Number of CPU worker threads, use 0 for hardware concurrency. (default='0')
-h, --host=STRING Host (RPC-Node / Pool URL) (default='localhost')
-p, --port=INT Port (RPC-Node / Pool PORT) (default='3000')
-u, --user=STRING Enable stratum protocol and specify username ( default='')
--password=STRING Password (for Stratum) (default='')

One line example to start mining

  • with restarter: screen -dmS janusminer bash -c "while true; do ~/janusminer-ubuntu22 -a YOUR_WALLET_ADDRESS -h YOU_NODE_IP -p YOUR_NODE_PORT; done"

  • without restarter: screen -dmS janusminer ~/janusminer-ubuntu22 -a YOUR_WALLET_ADDRESS -h YOU_NODE_IP -p YOUR_NODE_PORT

Custom miner for HiveOS

To use it you need to select “Custom” miner when you create Flight Sheet and paste the direct link on HiveOS build (e.g. janusminer_hiveos-0.0.1.tgz) from Releases into "Installation URL'".

Flight Sheet example for HiveOS

mmpOS implementation

  • After installing and running the miner using the custom miner feature in mmpOS, the below mmp-stats.sh file can be pulled into the miner directory to enable hashrate reporting in mmpOS for the Janusminer.

sudo wget https://update.mmpos.eu/fixes/j/mmp-stats.sh -O mmp-stats.sh sudo chmod +x mmp-stats.sh
