A statistics collection agent for powerpool mining server

Project description

A statistics collection agent for the PowerPool mining server. It was built to work with Simple Doge mining pool . Currently only available for linux distributions running python 2.6 or 2.7. Tested on cgminer 3.7.2 and sgminer 4.1.0, may work for other cgminer derivatives.

Installation

Make sure your cgminer or sgminer is running with the api port enabled. This can be done on command line with the --api-listen argument, or in your configuration file with "api-listen": true.

Ubuntu:

sudo pip install ppagent
sudo ppagent install upstart

Debian (for BAMT or SMOS):

sudo pip install ppagent
sudo ppagent install sysv

Now when your miner is running against stratum.simpledoge.com the daemon will automatically start sending statistics to the server as well. Check your stats page on SimpleDoge to see that it’s working. You should see something similar to this:

Worker status display

Upgrade

Ubuntu:

sudo pip install --upgrade ppagent
sudo service ppagent restart

Debian (for BAMT or SMOS):

sudo pip install --upgrade ppagent
sudo /etc/init.d/ppagent stop
sudo /etc/init.d/ppagent start

Troubleshooting

If it’s not showing up after a minute or two you should first check the logs. On debian these are at:

/var/log/ppagent.log

On Ubuntu:

/var/log/upstart/ppagent.log

The error messages should give you a clue why it’s not working. If not, login to the simple doge IRC and we’ll try to help you get is straightened out.
