Exposes a server to enable Stratum mining protocol (server and client) usage on Node.js and subscribe for events using EventEmitter, and accept stratum-notify from *coind daemons
This is not a ready-to-use miner pool, you may use this server to implement your favorite altcoins, all the pool logic is up to you (shares, passwords, sessions, etc).
- Simple but powerful API for managing both server and client
- Build-in support for spawn coins daemons (
bitcoind,litecoind, etc) process and accept RPC calls - Easy for you to add your own procedures do the RPC server (using
expose) - No need to worry about
.conffiles for the daemons, everything is passed through command line the best way possible (but you may override arguments) - All classes based on
EventEmitterby default (through theBaseclass) - The client part make it easy, along with an RPC server, to setup your own farming pool for coins
- You can create a proxy from it using the
Clientinterface, mix up Stratum with your own RPC definition and commands
npm install stratumNotice that you may install this globally using -g, stratum-notify will be available system wide
node node_modules/.bin/stratum-notify --host localhost --port 1337 --password willbebase64encoded --type block --data "jsondata"This command is called automatically if you set the coind options, they are forked when the server is started.

server.on('mining', function(req, deferred){
switch (req.method){
case 'subscribe':
// req.params[0] -> if filled, it's the User Agent, like CGMiner/CPUMiner sends
// Just resolve the deferred, the promise will be resolved and the data sent to the connected client
deferred.resolve([subscription, extranonce1, extranonce2_size]);

}
});
server.listen();You can connect to Stratum servers as well:
var Client = require('stratum').Client;
client = new Client();
client.connect({
host: 'localhost',
port: 3333
}).then(function(){
return ...;
}).then(function(value){
if (value){
//etc
}
});Check the examples folder, each part (client and server) is completely explained, and how to proceed on each possible case.
The following documentation expects that:
var stratum = require('stratum');Available through stratum.Base
All the classes inherit from the base class, that inherits from EventEmitter3, and got an additional method:
Show debug messages for the class only if DEBUG=stratum environment variable is set
stratum.Base.debug('oops');Available through stratum.Server
You can write your own defaults that applies to all new server instances through stratum.Server.defaults
stratum.Server.defaults.settings.toobusy = 50;You can also include your own stratum method calls through stratum.Server.commands object, the server will lookup them automatically and provide it in the event emitted callback.
The 'mining.' prefix is expected, so if you put 'hashes', it expects the command to be mining.hashes
stratum.Server.commands.hashes = function(id, any, params, you, want, to, pass, to, the, client){
// this function is actually the "resolved" function, that sends data back to the client
// it's reached by using deferred.resolve([...params...]); in the emitted callback
// "this" is the current socket
// "id" is the current RPC call id and is non-optional, must be always the first parameter
// you should always return something like this:
return this.stratumSend({
error: null,
result: [any, params, you, want], // your result
id: id
});
};
// the event `mining.hashes` will be fired on the callback
server.on('mining', function(req, deferred) {
if (req.method === 'hashes'){
deferred.resolve([any, params, you, want, to, pass, to, the, client]);
// or reject
deferred.reject([any, params, you, want, to, pass, to, the, client]);
}
});
// mining.error event is emitted when something is wrong, mining related
server.on('mining.error', function(){
});
// the stratum.Server also holds defaults for coins daemons
console.log(stratum.Server.daemons); // a list of pre-configured daemons in stratum.Server.daemons
// You can inject them into the server later on, using stratum.Daemon
//instantiates a bitcoin stratum.Daemon and places inside the server
server.addDaemon(stratum.Server.daemons.bitcoin);
// you can instantiate using your own instance as well
server.addDaemon(stratum.Daemon.create({
'name': 'MyExampleCoin',
/*...*/
}));Available through stratum.RPCServer.
Enables you to communicate from outside the Stratum module through an JSON RPC 2.0 interface. It's optional, and you don't need to enable it, you may communicate from inside out only.
It's mainly useful to receive notifications (wallet, block and alert), like the stratum-notify bin to receive json data from the outside, but you may extend the interface to accept any other commands that you deem necessary for your app.
It's advised to bind the RPCServer instance to either localhost or an internal IP range, and/or access through trusted proxies.
const rpc = new stratum.RPCServer({
'mode': 'tcp', // can be 'tcp', 'http', 'both' (can handle TCP and HTTP/Websockets on one port)
'port': 9999,
'host': 'localhost', // bind to localhost
'password': 'a665a45920422f9d417e4867efdc4fb8a04a1f3fff1fa07e998e86f7f7a27ae3' // SHA256 hash of the password, no plain text!
});
rpc.listen(); // listens on port 9999, binding to localhost
rpc.expose('mymethod', function(args, connection, callback){
// if you want to pass an error, use the first callback parameter
callback(error);
// otherwise, pass the result through the second parameter
callback(null, result);
});
// RPC calls like {"method":"mymethod","params":[1,"2"],"id":1}, the args parameter will receive only the [1,"2"]Available through stratum.Client
The client can connect to a stratum server and send and receive commands like if it was a miner.
The main reason for this part of the module is that you can setup a stratum proxy using it, to forward raw data (or even a command line call) to a stratum server.
You may also test your pool sending arbitrary test data to see if it's responding properly.
If your URL starts with 'stratum+tcp://', remove it!
var client = new stratum.Client();
client.on('mining.error', function(message){
});
client.on('mining', function(req, deferred){
// this
});
client.connect(8080, 'localhost').then(function(socket){
socket.stratumSubscribe('NodeMiner');
socket.stratumAuthorize('user','pass');
socket.stratumSubmit('worker', 'job_id', 'extranonce2', 'ntime', 'nonce');
socket.stratumSend(data, true); //send a stratum command other than the previous ones
socket.send(data); // send raw data through the socket
});Available through stratum.Daemon
Include or change the global configuration for daemons using the stratum.Server.daemons member. It's not set per instance, but rather globally.
The options path, args, notifyPath, notify are optional
stratum.Server.daemons['sillycoin'] = {
'path': '/usr/bin/sillycoind', // optional
'args': ['debug'], // optional
'rpcserver': { // this whole block is optional, this is the stratum server RPC (not the daemon one))
'port': 8888,
'host': 'localhost',
'password': 'rpcpassword',
'notifyPath': './node_modules/.bin/stratum-notify', // optional
'notify': ['block', 'wallet', 'alert'], // optional, will build walletnotify, blocknotify and alertnotify parameters
}
'name': 'SillyCoin',
'user': 'rpcuser',
'password': 'rpcpassword',
'port': 0xDEAD,
'host': 'localhost'
};You can start issuing commands to the daemon BEFORE calling start(), usually when you already have it running. start() will attempt to spawn the process.
var daemon = new stratum.Daemon({
'path': '/usr/bin/sillycoind',
'name': 'SillyCoin',
'user': 'rpcuser',
'password': 'rpcpassword',
'port': 0xDEAD,
'host': 'localhost',
'args': ['debug']
});
async function start() {
daemon.start();
try {
const result = await daemon.call('getinfo', []);
// daemon returned a result
console.log(result.balance);
} catch (result) {
// daemon returned an error
console.log(result); // usually "Command timed out" or "Unauthorized access"
}
}
start();Export/set the environment variable DEBUG=stratum on your command line before executing your code, that you'll be able to see everything behind the hood inside this module on the command line.
You can additionally set DEBUG=stratum,jsonrpc to also see the RPC part in-depth (for stratum.Daemon and stratum.RPCServer)
