SimpleCoin Multi

SimpleCoin is an open source mining pool frontend, it performs many of the same functions as software like MPOS. It is currently under active development for use in the SimpleMulti mining pool, although we are gradually adding documentation so it can be set up more easily by others as well. It should be considered beta software, and breaking/sweeping changes may still be added occasionally. We are following Semantic Versioning, and as such once we reach v1.0 breaking changes will be less frequent.

Features

• Multi-currency support. One instance of this pool software supports mining and paying out many currencies.
• Multi-algo support. Currently configured for X11, Scrypt, and Scrypt-N, but designed so others could be added.
• Merge mining enabled. We support merge mining as many currencies as you'd like.
• Multi-chain support. Some miners can mine with PPLNS, while others use PROP payout, but they work together to solve blocks faster for each "chain".
• Translation support. Thanks to sbwdlihao's contributions we support internationalization.

For installation instructions please read the docs.

Code

We're actively working on SCM, so please feel free to send in pull requests. Before sending a pull request, it's a good idea to run the tests. Code that breaks tests will not be merged until it's fixed.

# enter our virtualenv
workon scm
# the tests require some special dependencies
pip install -r requirements-test.txt
nosetests
# If you want coverage
nosetests --with-coverage --cover-package=simplecoin --cover-html

For pull requests that touch on especially sensitive areas, such as payout calculations, share processing, etc, we will want to thoroughly test the changes before merging it in. This may take us a while, so including tests for your code and keeping it clean will help speed things up.

Documentation

Documentation changes are very welcome. Before committing and making your pull request you can build you changes locally if needed with the following:

workon scm
# install sphinx
pip install -r requirements-docs.txt
cd doc/
make html
# view it in your browser
google-chrome _build/html/index.html
