Are you developing a tool for Antminer units?
Or are you trying to fork BTCminer tool developed by BTC.com (https://github.com/btccom/libbtctools) and you are doing some changes?


I think the API use on Bmminer is the same as the API use on Cgminer?
Check the Cgminer APIs from this link below.

- https://github.com/ckolivas/cgminer/blob/master/API-README

Or check this old one below.

Actually, -ck abandoned his development of cgminer years ago. Kano is the sole remaining active Primary developer of it and has applied a slew of updates to it since -ck left the project. BTW, Kano wrote the entire API for cgminer. His repo is https://github.com/kanoi/cgminer  The API info is under API-README.

AFAIK Bitmain (and most other makers) uses the cgminer API with no additions of their own.
