htn-stratum-bridge

Hoosat Stratum Adapter

This is a forked lightweight daemon that allows mining to a local (or remote) hoosat node using stratum-base miners.

This daemon is confirmed working with the miners below in both dual-mining and hoosat-only modes (for those that support it) and Windows/MacOs/Linux/HiveOs.

• lolminer
• srbminer

Huge shoutout to https://github.com/onemorebsmith/kaspa-stratum-bridgev and https://github.com/KaffinPX/KStratum for the work Tips appreciated: kaspa:qp9v6090sr8jjlkq7r3f4h9un5rtfhu3raknfg3cca9eapzee57jzew0kxwlp

Features:

Shares-based work allocation with miner-like periodic stat output:

Optional monitoring UI:

Prometheus API:

If the app is run with the -prom={port} flag the application will host stats on the port specified by {port}, these stats are documented in the file prom.go. This is intended to be use by prometheus but the stats can be fetched and used independently if desired. curl http://localhost:2114/metrics | grep htn_ will get a listing of current stats. All published stats have a htn_ prefix for ease of use.

Install

Docker All-in-one

Note: This does requires that docker is installed.

docker compose -f docker-compose-all.yml up -d will run the bridge with default settings. This assumes a local hoosat node with default port settings and exposes port 5555 to incoming stratum connections.

This also spins up a local prometheus and grafana instance that gather stats and host the metrics dashboard. Once the services are up and running you can view the dashboard using http://127.0.0.1:3000/d/x7cE7G74k/monitoring

Default grafana user/pass: admin/admin

Most of the stats on the graph are averaged over an hour time period, so keep in mind that the metrics might be inaccurate for the first hour or so that the bridge is up.

Docker (non-compose)

Note: This does not require pulling down the repo, it only requires that docker is installed.

docker run -p 5555:5555 Hoosat-Oy/htn-stratum-bridge:latest --log=false will run the bridge with default settings. This assumes a local hoosat node with default port settings and exposes port 5555 to incoming stratum connections.

Detailed:

docker run -p {stratum_port}:5555 Hoosat-Oy/htn-stratum-bridge --log=false --hoosat={hoosat_address} --stats={false} will run the bridge targeting a hoosat node at {hoosat_address}. stratum port accepting connections on {stratum_port}, and only logging connection activity, found blocks, and errors

Manual build

Install go 1.18 using whatever package manager is approprate for your system

run cd cmd/hoosatbridge;go build .

Modify the config file in ./cmd/bridge/config.yaml with your setup, the file comments explain the various flags

run ./hoosatbridge in the cmd/hoosatbridge directory

all-in-one (build + run) cd cmd/htnbridge/;go build .;./htnbridge
