Description
MPOS is a web based Mining Portal for various crypto currencies. A few pools using this interface are running at:
NOTE: This project is still under development and commits are happening on a daily basis. I do not recommend using this for a live setup as of yet. Wait for the later Release Candidate if you wish to run your pool with it. Testing pools are much appreciated though!
Donations
I was hoping to keep this out of the README but apparently people remove or change the LTC address at the bottom of the page. For those of you finding my project and are willing to appreciate the work with some hard earned coins feel free to donate:

Website Footer
When you decide to use MPOS
please be so kind and leave the footer intact. You are not the author of the software and should honor those that have worked on it. I don't mind changing the LTC donation address at the bottom, but keep in mind who really wrote this software and would deserve those ;-).

Requirements
This setup has been tested on Ubuntu 12.04, Ubuntu 13.04 and CentOS. It should also work on any related distribution (RHEL, Debian).
Be aware that MPOS
is only for pooled mining. Solo Mining is not
supported. They will never match an upstream share, solo miners do not create
any shares, only blocks. Expect weird behavior if trying to mix them. See #299
for full information.

Installation
Please take a look at the Quick Start Guide. This will give you an idea how to setup MPOS
.
Customization
This project was meant to allow users to easily cusomize the system and templates. Hence no upstream framework was used to keep it as simple as possible. If you are just using the system, there will be no need to adjust anything. Things will work out of the box! But if you plan on creating your own theme, things are pretty easy:
- Create a new theme folder in
public/templates/
- Create a new site_assets folder in
public/site_assets
- Create your own complete custom template or copy from an existing one
- Change your theme in the
Admin Panel
and point it to the newly created folder
The good thing with this approach: You can keep the backend code updated! Since your new theme will never conflict with existing themes, a simple git pull will keep your installation updated. You decide which new feature you'd like to integrate on your own theme. Bugfixes to the code will work out of the box!
Other customizations are also possible but will require merging changes together. Usually users would not need to change the backend code unless they wish to work
on non-existing features in MPOS
. For the vast majority, adjusting themes should be enough to highlight your pool from others.
In all that, I humbly ask to keep the MPOS
author reference and Github URL intact.
