[BBR] Pool-developers thread

[crypto_zoidberg]

This thread is started to support BBR pool-developers.
I'll help with techincal questions, expanding API or solving problems.

Why creating pool for BBR is a good idea ?
1. No doubt that a lot of people looking for pool for BBR.
2. You can offer alias registering service with pool, extra earning for each block. I'm personally ready to pay 5 BBR to pool for registering for me alias @obama(later i'll sell it to him)
3. Unlike other CryptoNote-family, BBR PoW hash is easy to check - less resources and less complicated backend (you don't need tho check only every hundredth share).

Technical details:
Now simpleminer is back, and several instances could work directly with daemon, as a clear example of shared work with blockchain-based scratchpad.
Hope this code let developers to organize pools for our project.
Notice: it's just a working example, it is not production code, and it's not optimized for trafic usage, so it's up to the pool developer.
Notice: At start simpleminer downloads whole scratchpad (it could be pretty big, estimate 90MB/year, at moment of writing this message it was about 2MB). Obviously pool client have to store this scratchpad somewhere on disk, to avoid traffic overhead.
To check work of simpleminer you need to run daemon as usual, and than start simpleminer:

Code:

simpleminer --login=anyname --pass=anypas --pool-addr=127.0.0.1:50102

50102 - rpc port for testnet, i recommend you to try there, since it is possible there to find a block pretty fast.

Goog luck!

Anydownload link?

I have a pool up and ready to test, the above link is to the daemon source but is simpleminer included in that source?  I am compiling now just hoping its in there.

It is boolberry project, not just daemon, and simpleminer is included.

Wait do you mean that I can mine to demon from other machines and hash rate will be accumulate ?

I tried to run pool. Use node-cryptonote-pool.
Got errors

I think  something is wrong in the above output, I am almost done with setting stuff up and I can test.

[cubydu]

I think  something is wrong in the above output, I am almost done with setting stuff up and I can test.

I got error becouse https://github.com/LucasJones/node-cryptonote-util use

Code:

#include "cryptonote_core/cryptonote_basic.h"
#include "cryptonote_core/cryptonote_format_utils.h"
#include "cryptonote_protocol/blobdatatype.h"

instead

Code:

#include "currency_core/cryptonote_basic.h"
#include "currency_core/cryptonote_format_utils.h"
#include "currency_protocol/blobdatatype.h"

from Boolberry sources

But I don't know how build node-cryptonote-util with my local changes

[33zer0w0lf]

I think the problem is with the address validator.

[33zer0w0lf]

I have chatted with Zone117x, he is the developer of the cryptonote open source pool.
http://www.extremepool.org
http://mro.extremepool.org
http://bcn.extremepool.org
http://bcn.extremepool.org

He has told me he is backed up with projects but if a bounty was available and worthwhile he could look at the code and make it work with boolberry.

So this is the office notice of a POOL BOUNTY!!

donation address for the pool bounty are 1EAMdQQcYjw1PYY2oZPmywTNra3sySBds8VjvfyoZPBjU7ZY4YwcVUebhGp6xQRpr1ZdVYUvP21kTHW gAHZk4hViUH4mq7c

I will setup a specific thread given updates on the balance as we go. 

PM or message me with questions.

OMG.
This is not cryptonote pool client, this is GUIDE OF HOW TO CREATE POOL, like SDK.
Don't use it for mining, it's not optimized well for traffic and speed.

Any update?
