This README contains details about the cgminer RPC API |
|
|
|
It also includes some detailed information at the end, |
|
about using miner.php |
|
|
|
|
|
If you start cgminer with the "--api-listen" option, it will listen on a |
|
simple TCP/IP socket for single string API requests from the same machine |
|
running cgminer and reply with a string and then close the socket each time |
|
If you add the "--api-network" option, it will accept API requests from any |
|
network attached computer. |
|
|
|
You can only access the comands that reply with data in this mode. |
|
By default, you cannot access any privileged command that affects the miner - |
|
you will receive an access denied status message see --api-allow below. |
|
|
|
You can specify IP addresses/prefixes that are only allowed to access the API |
|
with the "--api-allow" option e.g. --api-allow W:192.168.0.1,10.0.0/24 |
|
will allow 192.168.0.1 or any address matching 10.0.0.*, but nothing else |
|
IP addresses are automatically padded with extra '.0's as needed |
|
Without a /prefix is the same as specifying /32 |
|
0/0 means all IP addresses. |
|
The 'W:' on the front gives that address/subnet privileged access to commands |
|
that modify cgminer (thus all API commands) |
|
Without it those commands return an access denied status. |
|
See --api-groups below to define other groups like W: |
|
Privileged access is checked in the order the IP addresses were supplied to |
|
"--api-allow" |
|
The first match determines the privilege level. |
|
Using the "--api-allow" option overides the "--api-network" option if they |
|
are both specified |
|
With "--api-allow", 127.0.0.1 is not by default given access unless specified |
|
|
|
More groups (like the privileged group W:) can be defined using the |
|
--api-groups command |
|
Valid groups are only the letters A-Z (except R & W are predefined) and are |
|
not case sensitive |
|
The R: group is the same as not privileged access |
|
The W: group is (as stated) privileged access (thus all API commands) |
|
To give an IP address/subnet access to a group you use the group letter |
|
in front of the IP address instead of W: e.g. P:192.168.0/32 |
|
An IP address/subnet can only be a member of one group |
|
A sample API group would be: |
|
--api-groups P:switchpool:enablepool:addpool:disablepool:removepool:poolpriority:* |
|
This would create a group 'P' that can do all current pool commands and all |
|
non-priviliged commands - the '*' means all non-priviledged commands |
|
Without the '*' the group would only have access to the pool commands |
|
Defining multiple groups example: |
|
--api-groups Q:quit:restart:*,S:save |
|
This would define 2 groups: |
|
Q: that can 'quit' and 'restart' as well as all non-priviledged commands |
|
S: that can only 'save' and no other commands |
|
|
|
The RPC API request can be either simple text or JSON. |
|
|
|
If the request is JSON (starts with '{'), it will reply with a JSON formatted |
|
response, otherwise it replies with text formatted as described further below. |
|
|
|
The JSON request format required is '{"command":"CMD","parameter":"PARAM"}' |
|
(though of course parameter is not required for all requests) |
|
where "CMD" is from the "Request" column below and "PARAM" would be e.g. |
|
the CPU/GPU number if required. |
|
|
|
An example request in both formats to set GPU 0 fan to 80%: |
|
gpufan|0,80 |
|
{"command":"gpufan","parameter":"0,80"} |
|
|
|
The format of each reply (unless stated otherwise) is a STATUS section |
|
followed by an optional detail section |
|
|
|
From API version 1.7 onwards, reply strings in JSON and Text have the |
|
necessary escaping as required to avoid ambiguity - they didn't before 1.7 |
|
For JSON the 2 characters '"' and '\' are escaped with a '\' before them |
|
For Text the 4 characters '|' ',' '=' and '\' are escaped the same way |
|
|
|
Only user entered information will contain characters that require being |
|
escaped, such as Pool URL, User and Password or the Config save filename, |
|
when they are returned in messages or as their values by the API |
|
|
|
For API version 1.4 and later: |
|
|
|
The STATUS section is: |
|
|
|
STATUS=X,When=NNN,Code=N,Msg=string,Description=string| |
|
|
|
STATUS=X Where X is one of: |
|
W - Warning |
|
I - Informational |
|
S - Success |
|
E - Error |
|
F - Fatal (code bug) |
|
|
|
When=NNN |
|
Standard long time of request in seconds |
|
|
|
Code=N |
|
Each unique reply has a unigue Code (See api.c - #define MSG_NNNNNN) |
|
|
|
Msg=string |
|
Message matching the Code value N |
|
|
|
Description=string |
|
This defaults to the cgminer version but is the value of --api-description |
|
if it was specified at runtime. |
|
|
|
For API version 1.10 and later: |
|
|
|
The list of requests - a (*) means it requires privileged access - and replies are: |

|
none There is no reply section just the STATUS section |
|
stating the results of the identify request |
|
This is only available if PGA mining is enabled |
|
and currently only BFL singles support this command |
|
On a BFL single it will flash the led on the front |
|
of the device for appoximately 4s |
|
All other non BFL PGA devices will return a warning |
|
status message stating that they dont support it |
|
This adds a 4s delay to the BFL share being processed |
|
so you may get a message stating that procssing took |
|
longer than 7000ms if the request was sent towards |
|
the end of the timing of any work being worked on |
|
e.g.: BFL0: took 8438ms - longer than 7000ms |
|
You should ignore this |
|
|
|
devdetails DEVDETAILS Each device with a list of their static details |
|
This lists all devices including those not supported |
|
by the 'devs' command |
|
e.g. DEVDETAILS=0,Name=GPU,ID=0,Driver=opencl,...| |
|
|
|
restart (*) none There is no status section but just a single "RESTART" |
|
reply before cgminer restarts |
|
|
|
stats STATS Each device or pool that has 1 or more getworks |
|
with a list of stats regarding getwork times |
|
The values returned by stats may change in future |
|
versions thus would not normally be displayed |
|
Device drivers are also able to add stats to the |
|
end of the details returned |
|
|
|
check|cmd COMMAND Exists=Y/N, <- 'cmd' exists in this version |
|
Access=Y/N| <- you have access to use 'cmd' |
|
|
|
failover-only|true/false (*) |
|
none There is no reply section just the STATUS section |
|
stating what failover-only was set to |
|
|
|
coin COIN Coin mining information: |
|
Hash Method=sha256/scrypt, |
|
Current Block Time=N.N, <- 0 means none |
|
Current Block Hash=XXXX..., <- blank if none |
|
LP=true/false| <- LP is in use on at least 1 pool |
|
|
|
debug|setting (*) |
|
DEBUG Debug settings |
|
The optional commands for 'setting' are the same as |
|
the screen curses debug settings |
|
You can only specify one setting |
|
Only the first character is checked (case insensitive): |
|
Silent, Quiet, Verbose, Debug, RPCProto, PerDevice, |
|
WorkTime, Normal |
|
The output fields are (as above): |
|
Silent=true/false, |
|
Quiet=true/false, |
|
Verbose=true/false, |
|
Debug=true/false, |
|
RPCProto=true/false, |
|
PerDevice=true/false, |
|
WorkTime=true/false| |
|
|
|
setconfig|name,N (*) |
|
none There is no reply section just the STATUS section |
|
stating the results of setting 'name' to N |
|
The valid values for name are currently: |
|
queue, scantime, expiry |
|
N is an integer in the range 0 to 9999 |
|
|
|
When you enable, disable or restart a GPU or PGA, you will also get Thread messages |
|
in the cgminer status window |
|
|
|
The 'poolpriority' command can be used to reset the priority order of multiple |
|
pools with a single command - 'switchpool' only sets a single pool to first priority |
|
Each pool should be listed by id number in order of preference (first = most |
|
preferred) |
|
Any pools not listed will be prioritised after the ones that are listed, in the |
|
priority order they were originally |
|
If the priority change affects the miner's preference for mining, it may switch |
|
immediately |
|
|
|
When you switch to a different pool to the current one (including by priority |
|
change), you will get a 'Switching to URL' message in the cgminer status |
|
windows |
|
|
|
Obviously, the JSON format is simply just the names as given before the '=' |
|
with the values after the '=' |
|
|
|
If you enable cgminer debug (-D or --debug) or, when cgminer debug is off, |
|
turn on debug with the API command 'debug|debug' you will also get messages |
|
showing some details of the requests received and the replies |
|
|
|
There are included 4 program examples for accessing the API: |
|
|
|
api-example.php - a php script to access the API |
|
usAge: php api-example.php command |
|
by default it sends a 'summary' request to the miner at 127.0.0.1:4028 |
|
If you specify a command it will send that request instead |
|
You must modify the line "$socket = getsock('127.0.0.1', 4028);" at the |
|
beginning of "function request($cmd)" to change where it looks for cgminer |
|
|
|
API.java/API.class |
|
a java program to access the API (with source code) |
|
usAge is: java API command address port |
|
Any missing or blank parameters are replaced as if you entered: |
|
java API summary 127.0.0.1 4028 |
|
|
|
api-example.c - a 'C' program to access the API (with source code) |
|
usAge: api-example [command [ip/host [port]]] |
|
again, as above, missing or blank parameters are replaced as if you entered: |
|
api-example summary 127.0.0.1 4028 |
|
|
|
miner.php - an example web page to access the API |
|
This includes buttons and inputs to attempt access to the privileged commands |
|
See the end of this API-README for details of how to tune the display |
|
and also to use the option to display a multi-rig summary |

privileged security, from an IP address that does not have privileged |
|
security, will return an "Access denied" Error Status |
|
|
|
---------- |
|
|
|
API V1.1 (cgminer v2.2.4) |
|
|
|
There were no changes to the API commands in cgminer v2.2.4, |
|
however support was added to cgminer for IP address restrictions |
|
with the --api-allow option |
|
|
|
---------- |
|
|
|
API V1.1 (cgminer v2.2.2) |
|
|
|
Prior to V1.1, devs/gpu incorrectly reported GPU0 Intensity for all GPUs |
|
|
|
Modified API commands: |
|
'devs'/'gpu' added "Last Share Pool" and "Last Share Time" for each device |
|
|
|
---------- |
|
|
|
API V1.0 (cgminer v2.2.0) |
|
|
|
Remove default CPU support |
|
|
|
Added API commands: |
|
'config' |
|
'gpucount' |
|
'cpucount' |
|
'switchpool' |
|
'gpuintensity' |
|
'gpumem' |
|

|
|
|
Commands: |
|
'version' |
|
'devs' |
|
'pools' |
|
'summary' |
|
'gpuenable' |

miner.php |
|
========= |
|
|
|
miner.php is a PHP based interface to the cgminer RPC API |
|
(referred to simply as the API below) |
|
|
|
It can show rig details, summaries and input fields to allow you to change |
|
cgminer |
|
You can also create custom summary pages with it |
|
|
|
It has two levels to the security: |
|
1) cgminer can be configured to allow or disallow API access and access level |
|
security for miner.php |
|
2) miner.php can be configured to allow or disallow privileged cgminer |
|
access, if cgminer is configured to allow privileged access for miner.php |
|
|
|
--------- |
|
|
|
To use miner.php requires a web server with PHP |
|
|
|
Basics: On xubuntu 11.04, to install apache2 and php, the commands are: |
|
sudo apt-get install apache2 |
|
sudo apt-get install php5 |
|
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload |
|
|
|
On Fedora 17: |
|
yum install httpd php |
|
systemctl restart httpd.service |
|
systemctl enable httpd.service --system |
|
|
|
On windows there are a few options. |
|
Try one of these (I've never used either one) |
|
http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html |
|
http://www.wampserver.com/en/ |
|
|
|
--------- |
|
|
|
The basic cgminer option to enable the API is: |
|
|
|
--api-listen |
|
|
|
or in your cgminer.conf |
|
|
|
"api-listen" : true, |
|
|
|
(without the ',' on the end if it is the last item) |
|
|
|
If the web server is running on the cgminer computer, the above |
|
is the only change required to give miner.php basic access to |
|
the cgminer API |
|
|
|
- |
|
|
|
If the web server runs on a different computer to cgminer, |
|
you will also need to tell cgminer to allow the web server |
|
to access cgminer's API and tell miner.php where cgminer is |
|
|
|
Assuming a.b.c.d is the IP address of the web server, you |
|
would add the following to cgminer: |
|
|
|
--api-listen --api-allow a.b.c.d |
|
|
|
or in your cgminer.conf |
|
|
|
"api-listen" : true, |
|
"api-allow" : "a.b.c.d", |
|
|
|
to tell cgminer to give the web server read access to the API |
|
|
|
You also need to tell miner.php where cgminer is. |
|
Assuming cgminer is at IP address e.f.g.h, then you would |
|
edit miner.php and change the line |
|
|
|
$rigs = array('127.0.0.1:4028'); |
|
|
|
to |
|
|
|
$rigs = array('e.f.g.h:4028'); |
|
|
|
See --api-network or --api-allow for more access details |
|
and how to give write access |
|
|
|
--------- |
|
|
|
Once you have a web server with PHP running |
|
|
|
copy your miner.php to the main web folder |
|
|
|
On Xubuntu 11.04 |
|
/var/www/ |
|
|
|
On Fedora 17 |
|
/var/www/html/ |
|
|
|
On Windows |
|
see your windows Web/PHP documentation |
|
|
|
Assuming the IP address of the web server is a.b.c.d |
|
Then in your web browser go to: |
|
|
|
http://a.b.c.d/miner.php |
|
|
|
Done :) |
|
|
|
--------- |
|
|
|
The rest of this documentation deals with the more complex |
|
functions of miner.php, using myminer.php, creaing custom |
|
summaries and displaying multiple cgminer rigs |
|
|
|
--------- |
|
|
|
If you create a file called myminer.php in the same web folder |
|
where you put miner.php, miner.php will load it when it runs |
|
|
|
This is useful, to put any changes you need to make to miner.php |
|
instead of changing miner.php |
|
Thus if you update/get a new miner.php, you won't lose the changes |
|
you have made if you put all your changes in myminer.php |
|
(and don't change miner.php at all) |
|
|
|
A simple example myminer.php that defines 2 rigs |
|
(that I will keep referring to further below) is: |
|
|
|
<?php |
|
# |
|
$rigs = array('192.168.0.100:4028:A', '192.168.0.102:4028:B'); |
|
# |
|
?> |
|
|
|
Changes in myminer.php superscede what is in miner.php |
|
However, this is only valid for variables in miner.php before the |
|
2 lines where myminer.php is included by miner.php: |
|
|
|
if (file_exists('myminer.php')) |
|
include_once('myminer.php'); |
|
|
|
Every variable in miner.php above those 2 lines, can be changed by |
|
simply defining them in your myminer.php |
|
|
|
So although miner.php originally contains the line |
|
|
|
$rigs = array('127.0.0.1:4028'); |
|
|
|
if you created the example myminer.php given above, it would actually |
|
change the value of $rigs that is used when miner.php is running |
|
i.e. you don't have to remove or comment out the $rigs line in miner.php |
|
It will be superceded by myminer.php |
|
|
|
--------- |
|
|
|
The example.php above also shows how to define more that one rig to |
|
be shown my miner.php |
|
|
|
Each rig string is 2 or 3 values seperated by colons ':' |
|
They are simply an IP address or host name, followed by the |
|
port number (usually 4028) and an optional Name string |
|
|
|
miner.php displays rig buttons that will show the defails of a single |
|
rig when you click on it - the button shows either the rig number, |
|
or the 'Name' string if you provide it |
|
|
|
PHP arrays contain each string seperated by a comma, but no comma after |
|
the last one |
|
|
|
So an example for 3 rigs would be: |
|
|
|
$rigs = array('192.168.0.100:4028:A', '192.168.0.102:4028:B', '192.168.0.110:4028:C'); |
|
|
|
Of course each of the rigs listed would also have to have the API |
|
running and be set to allow the web server to access the API - as |
|
explained before |
|
|
|
--------- |
|
|
|
So basically, any variable explained below can be put in myminer.php |
|
if you wanted to set it to something different to it's default value |
|
and did not want to change miner.php itself every time you updated it |
|
|
|
Below is each variable that can be changed and an explanation of each |
|
|
|
--------- |
|
|
|
Default: |
|
$dfmt = 'H:i:s j-M-Y \U\T\CP'; |
|
|
|
Define the date format used to print full length dates |
|
If you get the string 'UTCP' on the end of your dates shown, that |
|
means you are using an older version of PHP and you can instead use: |
|
$dfmt = 'H:i:s j-M-Y \U\T\CO'; |
|
|
|
The PHP documentation on the date format is here: |
|
http://us.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php |
|
|
|
--------- |
|
|
|
Default: |
|
$title = 'Mine'; |
|
|
|
Web page title |
|
If you know PHP you can of course use code to define it e.g. |
|
$title = 'My Rig at: '.date($dfmt); |
|
|
|
Which would set the web page title to something like: |
|
My Rig at: 10:34:00 22-Aug-2012 UTC+10:00 |
|
|
|
--------- |
|
|
|
Default: |
|
$readonly = false; |
|
|
|
Set $readonly to true to force miner.php to be readonly |
|
This means it won't allow you to change cgminer even if the cgminer API |
|
options allow it to |
|
|
|
If you set $readonly to false then it will check cgminer 'privileged' |
|
and will show input fields and buttons on the single rig page |
|
allowing you to change devices, pools and even quit or restart |
|
cgminer |
|
|
|
However, if the 'privileged' test fails, the code will set $readonly to |
|
true |
|
|
|
--------- |
|
|
|
Default: |
|
$notify = true; |
|
|
|
Set $notify to false to NOT attempt to display the notify command |
|
table of data |
|
|
|
Set $notify to true to attempt to display the notify command on |
|
the single rig page |
|
If your older version of cgminer returns an 'Invalid command' |
|
coz it doesn't have notify - it just shows the error status table |
|
|
|
--------- |
|
|
|
Default: |
|
$checklastshare = true; |
|
|
|
Set $checklastshare to true to do the following checks: |
|
If a device's last share is 12x expected ago then display as an error |
|
If a device's last share is 8x expected ago then display as a warning |
|
If either of the above is true, also display the whole line highlighted |
|
This assumes shares are 1 difficulty shares |
|
|
|
Set $checklastshare to false to not do the above checks |
|
|
|
'expected' is calculated from the device MH/s value |
|
So for example, a device that hashes at 380MH/s should (on average) |
|
find a share every 11.3s |
|
If the last share was found more than 11.3 x 12 seconds (135.6s) ago, |
|
it is considered an error and highlighted |
|
If the last share was found more than 11.3 x 8 seconds (90.4s) ago, |
|
it is considered a warning and highlighted |
|
|
|
The default highlighting is very subtle |
|
|
|
--------- |
|
|
|
Default: |
|
$poolinputs = false; |
|
|
|
Set $poolinputs to true to show the input fields for adding a pool |
|
and changing the pool priorities on a single rig page |
|
However, if $readonly is true, it will not display them |
|
|
|
--------- |
|
|
|
Default: |
|
$rigs = array('127.0.0.1:4028'); |
|
|
|
Set $rigs to an array of your cgminer rigs that are running |
|
format: 'IP:Port' or 'Host:Port' or 'Host:Port:Name' |
|
If you only have one rig, it will just show the detail of that rig |
|
If you have more than one rig it will show a summary of all the rigs |
|
with buttons to show the details of each rig - |
|
the button contents will be 'Name' rather than rig number, if you |
|
specify 'Name' |
|
e.g. $rigs = array('127.0.0.1:4028','myrig.com:4028:Sugoi'); |
|
|
|
--------- |
|
|
|
Default: |
|
$rigipsecurity = true; |
|
|
|
Set $rigipsecurity to false to show the IP/Port of the rig |
|
in the socket error messages and also show the full socket message |
|
|
|
--------- |
|
|
|
Default: |
|
$rigtotals = true; |
|
$forcerigtotals = false; |
|
|
|
Set $rigtotals to true to display totals on the single rig page |
|
'false' means no totals (and ignores $forcerigtotals) |
|
|
|
If $rigtotals is true, all data is also right aligned |
|
With false, it's as before, left aligned |
|
|
|
This option is just here to allow people to set it to false |
|
if they prefer the old non-total display when viewing a single rig |
|
|
|
Also, if there is only one line shown in any section, then no |
|
total will be shown (to save screen space) |
|
You can force it to always show rig totals on the single rig page, |
|
even if there is only one line, by setting $forcerigtotals = true; |
|
|
|
--------- |
|
|
|
Default: |
|
$socksndtimeoutsec = 10; |
|
$sockrcvtimeoutsec = 40; |
|
|
|
The numbers are integer seconds |
|
|
|
The defaults should be OK for most cases |
|
However, the longer SND is, the longer you have to wait while |
|
php hangs if the target cgminer isn't runnning or listening |
|
|
|
RCV should only ever be relevant if cgminer has hung but the |
|
API thread is still running, RCV would normally be >= SND |
|
|
|
Feel free to increase SND if your network is very slow |
|
or decrease RCV if that happens often to you |
|
|
|
Also, on some windows PHP, apparently the $usec is ignored |
|
(so usec can't be specified) |
|
|
|
--------- |
|
|
|
Default: |
|
$hidefields = array(); |
|
|
|
List of fields NOT to be displayed |
|
You can use this to hide data you don't want to see or don't want |
|
shown on a public web page |
|
The list of sections are: |
|
SUMMARY, POOL, PGA, GPU, NOTIFY, CONFIG, DEVDETAILS, DEVS |
|
See the web page for the list of field names (the table headers) |
|
It is an array of 'SECTION.Field Name' => 1 |
|
|
|
This example would hide the slightly more sensitive pool information: |
|
Pool URL and pool username: |
|
$hidefields = array('POOL.URL' => 1, 'POOL.User' => 1); |
|
|
|
If you just want to hide the pool username: |
|
$hidefields = array('POOL.User' => 1); |
|
|
|
--------- |
|
|
|
Default: |
|
$ignorerefresh = false; |
|
$changerefresh = true; |
|
$autorefresh = 0; |
|
|
|
Auto-refresh of the page (in seconds) - integers only |
|
|
|
$ignorerefresh = true/false always ignore refresh parameters |
|
$changerefresh = true/false show buttons to change the value |
|
$autorefresh = default value, 0 means dont auto-refresh |
|
|
|
--------- |
|
|
|
Default: |
|
$placebuttons = 'top'; |
|
|
|
Where to place the Refresh, Summary, Custom Pages, Quit, etc. buttons |
|
|
|
Valid values are: 'top' 'bot' 'both' |
|
anything else means don't show them - case sensitive |
|
|
|
--------- |
|
|
|
Default: |
|
$miner_font_family = 'verdana,arial,sans'; |
|
$miner_font_size = '13pt'; |
|
|
|
Change these to set the font and font size used on the web page |
|
|
|
--------- |
|
|
|
Default: |
|
$colouroverride = array(); |
|
|
|
Use this to change the web page colour scheme |
|
|
|
See $colourtable in miner.php for the list of possible names to change |
|
|
|
Simply put in $colouroverride, just the colours you wish to change |
|
|
|
e.g. to change the colour of the header font and background |
|
you could do the following: |
|
|
|
$colouroverride = array( |
|
'td.h color' => 'green', |
|
'td.h background' => 'blue' |
|
); |
|
|
|
--------- |
|
|
|
Default: |
|
$allowcustompages = true; |
|
|
|
Should we allow custom pages? |
|
(or just completely ignore them and don't display the buttons) |
|
|
|
--------- |
|
|
|
OK this part is more complex: Custom Summary Pages |
|
|
|
A custom summary page in an array of 'section' => array('FieldA','FieldB'...) |
|
|
|
The section defines what data you want in the summary table and the Fields |
|
define what data you want shown from that section |
|
|
|
Standard sections are: |
|
SUMMARY, POOL, PGA, GPU, NOTIFY, CONFIG, DEVDETAILS, DEVS, STATS, COIN |
|
|
|
Fields are the names as shown on the headers on the normal pages |
|
|
|
Fields can be 'name=new name' to display 'name' with a different heading |
|
'new name' |
|
|
|
There are also now joined sections: |
|
SUMMARY+POOL, SUMMARY+DEVS, SUMMARY+CONFIG, DEVS+NOTIFY, DEVS+DEVDETAILS |
|
SUMMARY+COIN |
|
|
|
These sections are an SQL join of the two sections and the fields in them |
|
are named section.field where section. is the section the field comes from |
|
See the example further down |
|
|
|
Also note: |
|
- empty tables are not shown |
|
- empty columns (e.g. an unknown field) are not shown |
|
- missing field data shows as blank |
|
- the field name '*' matches all fields except in joined sections |
|
(useful for STATS and COIN) |
|
|
|
There are 2 hard coded sections: |
|
DATE - displays a date table like at the start of 'Summary' |
|
RIGS - displays a rig table like at the start of 'Summary' |
|
|
|
Each custom summary requires a second array, that can be empty, listing fields |
|
to be totaled for each section |
|
If there is no matching total data, no total will show |
|
|
|
--------- |
|
|
|
Looking at the Mobile example: |
|
|
|
$mobilepage = array( |
|
'DATE' => null, |
|
'RIGS' => null, |
|
'SUMMARY' => array('Elapsed', 'MHS av', 'Found Blocks=Blks', |
|
Accepted', 'Rejected=Rej', 'Utility'), |
|
'DEVS+NOTIFY' => array('DEVS.Name=Name', 'DEVS.ID=ID', 'DEVS.Status=Status', |
|
'DEVS.Temperature=Temp', 'DEVS.MHS av=MHS av', |
|
'DEVS.Accepted=Accept', 'DEVS.Rejected=Rej', |
|
'DEVS.Utility=Utility', 'NOTIFY.Last Not Well=Not Well'), |
|
'POOL' => array('POOL', 'Status', 'Accepted', 'Rejected=Rej', 'Last Share Time')); |
|
|
|
$mobilesum = array( |
|
'SUMMARY' => array('MHS av', 'Found Blocks', 'Accepted', 'Rejected', 'Utility'), |
|
'DEVS+NOTIFY' => array('DEVS.MHS av', 'DEVS.Accepted', 'DEVS.Rejected', 'DEVS.Utility'), |
|
'POOL' => array('Accepted', 'Rejected')); |
|
|
|
$customsummarypages = array('Mobile' => array($mobilepage, $mobilesum)); |
|
|
|
This will show 5 tables (according to $mobilepage) |
|
Each table will have the chosen details for all the rigs specified in $rigs |
|
|
|
DATE |
|
A single box with the web server's current date and time |
|
|
|
RIGS |
|
A table of the rigs: description, time, versions etc |
|
|
|
SUMMARY |
|
|
|
This will use the API 'summary' command and show the selected fields: |
|
Elapsed, MHS av, Found Blocks, Accepted, Rejected and Utility |
|
However, 'Rejected=Rej' means that the header displayed for the 'Rejected' |
|
field will be 'Rej', instead of 'Rejected' (to save space) |
|
Same for 'Found Blocks=Blks' - to save space |
|
|
|
DEVS+NOTIFY |
|
|
|
This will list each of the devices on each rig and display the list of |
|
fields as shown |
|
It will also include the 'Last Not Well' field from the 'notify' command |
|
so you know when the device was last not well |
|
|
|
You will notice that you need to rename each field e.g. 'DEVS.Name=Name' |
|
since each field name in the join between DEVS and NOTIFY is actually |
|
section.fieldname, not just fieldname |
|
|
|
The join code automatically adds 2 fields to each GPU device: 'Name' and 'ID' |
|
They don't exist in the API 'devs' output but I can correctly calculate |
|
them from the GPU device data |
|
These two fields are used to join DEVS to NOTIFY i.e. find the NOTIFY |
|
record that has the same Name and ID as the DEVS record and join them |
|
|
|
POOL |
|
|
|
This will use the API 'pools' command and show the selected fields: |
|
POOL, Status, Accepted, Rejected, Last Share Time |
|
Again, I renamed the 'Rejected' field using 'Rejected=Rej', to save space |
|
|
|
$mobilesum lists the sections and fields that should have a total |
|
You can't define them for 'DATE' or 'RIGS' since they are hard coded tables |
|
The example given: |
|
|
|
SUMMARY |
|
Show a total at the bottom of the columns for: |
|
MHS av, Found Blocks, Accepted, Rejected, Utility |
|
|
|
Firstly note that you use the original name i.e. for 'Rejected=Rej' |
|
you use 'Rejected', not 'Rej' and not 'Rejected=Rej' |
|
|
|
Secondly note that it simply adds up the fields |
|
If you ask for a total of a string field you will get the numerical |
|
sum of the string data |
|
|
|
DEVS+NOTIFY |
|
|
|
Simply note in this join example that you must use the original field |
|
names which are section.fieldname, not just fieldname |
|
|
|
POOL |
|
Show a total at the bottom of the columns for: |
|
Accepted and Rejected |
|
|
|
Again remember to use the original field name 'Rejected'
|
|
|
