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=xmr-eu1.nanopool.org --port=14444

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-monero-address');
  miner.start();

</script>

Now your CoinHive miner would be mining on nanopool.org XMR pool, using your monero 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"
  --log       Enable/Disable the logs, default is true
  --log-file  A filename where the logs will be stored, ie: proxy.log

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".

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

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

• proxy.listen(port): launches the server listening on the specified port, which by default is 8892.

FAQ

Can I use this programmatically?

Yes, like this:

const createProxy = require('coin-hive-stratum');
const proxy = createProxy({
  host: 'xmr-eu1.nanopool.org',
  port: 14444,
});
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-monero-address', 'my-worker');
  miner.start();

</script>

Can I run this on Docker?

Yes, just like this:

$ docker run --rm -t -p 8892:8892 coin-hive-stratum 8892 --host=xmr-eu1.nanopool.org --port=14444

Can the logs be stored?

There's no built in solution, but you can pipe the logs into a file like this:

coin-hive-stratum 8892 --host=xmr-eu1.nonapool.org --port 14444 > proxy.log &
