Alternative Setup Through Git

Alternative Setup Through Git

Windows

Install git:

https://git-scm.com/download/win

OR

https://desktop.github.com/ (windows desktop version)

Cloning:

git clone https://github.com/maynardminer/SWARM.git 

This will allow you to clone SWARM in its entirety. From there it is as simple as following the remaining setup guide for SWARM. Nothing else is required.

Linux

install git:

sudo apt-get install git

Clone SWARM:

git clone https://github.com/maynardminer/SWARM.git 

If using HiveOS: Setup a Custom miner using the custom miner guide. However- You will NOT use a link, and the name of the miner is just SWARM, not SWARM.no.of.version.

Now Clone SWARM:

git clone https://github.com/maynardminer/SWARM.git /hive/miners/custom/SWARM

Then you can launch SWARM, and it should do the rest.

Using git to update

1.) Stash current changes to SWARM. All of the configs are set as .gitignore, so it will not reset your config.

cd [dir/to/SWARM/]
git stash

2.) Pull

cd [dir/to/SWARM/]
git pull

You are now using latest version of SWARM.
