Verus-ccminer is now hosted on docker hub. You can get it there, or built it yourself:
docker pull wattpool/verusccminer...or build it yourself:
git clone https://github.com/wattpool/verus-ccminer-dockerized.gitcd verus-ccminer-dockerized
docker build -t verusccminer .docker run --name verusccminer verusccminer -a verus -o stratum+tcp://verus.wattpool.net:1232 -u WALLET_ADDRESS.WORKER_NAME -p x -tXReplace WALLET_ADDRESS with your verus address, WORKER_NAME with a workername that will be displayed on the pool and -tX with the number of threads that you would like to run the miner on eg. -t4 for 4 threads.
Run miner in background using screen.
screen -dmS verusminer docker run verusccminer -a verus -o stratum+tcp://verus.wattpool.net:1232 -u RMJid9TJXcmBh2BhjAWXqGvaSSut2vbhYp.dockerworker -p x -t4This will run the containerized miner in a screen named verusminer, you can see what is running inside that screen by entering the command screen -r verusminer and detach from that screen with [ctrl]+a d (that is the ctrl and a keys together, then d for detach), if you do ctrl+c you will quit the miner.
-
Build the docker image for the miner.
When using this feature, it is recommended to build the container with your wallet and worker ID baked into the image.
-
Edit the
Dockerfileand replaceRMJid9TJXcmBh2BhjAWXqGvaSSut2vbhYp.dockerizedwith your own WALLET_ADDRESS.WORKER_NAME -
Rebuild the docker image:
docker build -t verusccminer . -
-
Create a new container using the newly built docker image:
docker container create verusccminer
This command will output a long hash.
- Start the new container referenced by the long hash from the previous step:
docker container start {that long hash}
- You can combine steps 2 & 3 into a single command:
docker container start `docker container create verusccminer`
- You can limit CPU usage by passing arguments to the
docker container createcommand:
docker container start `docker container create --cpus=".7" verusccminer`
- If you need to stop the container, you can use the command:
docker container stop {that long hash}
- Restart the container with the command:
docker container restart {that long hash}
- You can view the running container and see the newly assigned name with the command:
docker container ls
- View container logs using that newly assigned name:
docker container logs -f that-container-name
Assuming you have created a user verusminer in group verusminer and have cloned this repository in the verusminer home user directory, the following service file will start the daemon automatically at system startup.
Adjust the percentage of CPU being allocated to the process by editing the file cpus.txt. By default, this is set to 35% - feel free to change this value.
Enter the following into /etc/systemd/system/verusccminer.service:
