This is a lightweight daemon that allows mining to a local (or remote) Astrix node using stratum-base miners.
This daemon is confirmed working with the miners below in both dual-mining and Astrix-only modes (for those that support it) and Windows, Linux, macOS and HiveOS.

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

The grafana monitoring UI is an optional component but included for convenience. It will help to visualize collected statistics.
Many of the stats on the graph are averaged over a configurable time period (24hr default - use the 'resolution' dropdown to change this), so keep in mind that the metrics might be incomplete during this initial period.
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 aix_ will get a
listing of current stats. All published stats have a aix_ prefix for
ease of use.

Install go 1.18 using whatever package manager is appropriate for your system.
cd cmd/astrixbridge
go build .
Modify the config file in ./cmd/astrixbridge/config.yaml with your setup,
the file comments explain the various flags.
./astrixbridge
To recap the entire process of initiating the compilation and launching the astrix dridge, follow these steps:
cd cmd/astrixbridge
go build .
./astrixbridge
Best option for users who want access to reporting, and aren't already using Grafana/Prometheus. Requires a local copy of this repository, and docker installation.
Install Docker using the appropriate method for your OS. The docker commands below are assuming a server type installation - details may be different for a desktop installation.
The following will run the bridge assuming a local astrixd node with default port settings, and listen on port 5555 for incoming stratum connections.
git clone https://github.com/astrix-network/astrix-stratum-bridge.git
cd astrix-stratum-bridge
docker compose -f docker-compose-all-src.yml up -d --build
These settings can be updated in the config.yaml
file, or overridden by modifying, adding or deleting the parameters in the
command section of the docker-compose-all-src.yml file. Additionally,
Prometheus (the stats database) and Grafana (the dashboard) will be
started and accessible on ports 9090 and 3000 respectively. Once all
services are running, the dashboard should be reachable at
http://127.0.0.1:3000/d/x7cE7G74k1/aixb-monitoring with default
username and password admin.
These commands builds the bridge component from source, rather than
the previous behavior of pulling down a pre-built image. You may still
use the pre-built image by replacing docker-compose-all-src.yml with
docker-compose-all.yml, but it is not guaranteed to be up to date, so
compiling from source is the better alternative.
