[discord] <Skitzo#0190>: why is it when i try to miine with my gpu it crashes???? amd radeon rx560 4gb ddr5...

Hi fluffypony, I was sent here from Telegram in reference to the MyMonero project. Is this yours and are you able to answer some questions about it? I'm trying to incorporate Monero into an existing JavaScript project and it seems like your library would be the ideal (possibly only) solution! I've already incorporated BTC and BCH, and have spent a

lot of time with Ethereum and smart contracts, so we could probably skip some of the basics.

monican_agent: you might have better luck in the #mymonero channel :)

what are you trying to do though?

asymptotically I need to be able to: create addresses, including private keys, preferably using a master derivation one (like HD wallets)

asymptotically Then I need to be able to create raw transactions, and finally sign them.

asymptotically The constraint is that I have to be able to do this using JavaScript only (no dependence on RPC wallet or daemon or external API)

i think you need the daemon (or at least a copy of the blockchain) to be able to create a transaction though

you might want to look into github.com/moneroexamples/openmonero

asymptotically If I understand correctly, I'd need to gather transaction outputs in order to generate a new transaction, is that correct? Let's say I'll have access to the transactions somehow (e.g. stored in an offline database). Now I need to use that information to generate a new transaction and then sign it. At some point in the future, that

transaction may be posted -- for this I can use RPC, but for the generation and signing of the tx, I can't.

asymptotically I've looked at OpenMonero but I don't think it's JavaScript, is it? Am I looking in the wrong place maybe?

it's the backend to a wallet service like mymonero, where the server does the hard work (scanning for transactions) but the user still keeps their keys

are you able to use WebAssembly? i think you'd want to use exactly the same code to generate your transactions so that you don't accidentally make them stick out

asymptotically I'd need to implement this for Node.js

asymptotically I believe that Node can use WASM. When I "require" the MyMonero library it reports that WASM is available.

asymptotically MyMonero seems okay so far but beyond simply including it I can't find any information on actually using it.

endogenic, ^^

There are some unit tests where parameters are listed but I haven't a clue as to what most of them do.

monican_agent, you wanna connect with endogenic . For details on what he/they can offer, checkout his recent chat on monerotalk. monerotalk.live/paul-shapiro-mymonero

which was awesome btw endogenic! :)

gingeropolous Perfect. Doing that right now. Thanks!

For reference, here's the library I'm looking at: github.com/mymonero/mymonero-core-js

Seems like it'd be perfect if I can just figure out how to use it properly.

hello, i'm new to monero. Now i have synced daemon. and i want to try to configure solomining. what is the best option to do that? should i use rpc bind? or its unnesessary for mining blocks?

You do not need anything extra. Just run start_mining ADDRESS NTHREADS.

monican_agent: github.com/moneromooo-monero/monero-wallet-generator is probably a good introduction, it's based on mymonero source (from a few years back) and creates keys/addresses.

You'd likely not want to use it, just as a starting point for how to use the current mymonero source.

moneromooo: but i want to get some hashrate from outside. (not shure now, directly or through xmrig-proxy). at this moment i think i need something like

monerod --max-concurrency=2 --public-node --data-dir=/root/.bitmonero --prep-blocks-threads=4 --p2p-bind-ip=0.0.0.0 --p2p-bind-port=18080 --rpc-bind-port=18081 --rpc-bind-ip=127.0.0.1 --rpc-login user:password --confirm-external-bind --start-mining AdDrEsS

Sorry I thought you said solo mining. I misread then.

might be solo but wants to point multiple rigs at it i presume

maybe its not solo, but , i mean... many workers to one address

Odd definition if solo but OK ^_^

Some pool miners support a daemon+tcp scheme.

Not sure it's appropriate for many miners though.

at this time, question is - what is the right syntax for command line to restart daemon. is my example contains something unneeded or something missing?

--public-node and --rpc-login seem contradictory.

Especially with --rpc-bind-ip=127.0.0.1, unless you have some proxy from outside.

Otherwise it looks sensible.

do i need rpc for mining?

moneromooo Thanks. I'd actually come across this implementation in my search. I was a little intimidated by the size of the code but I'll have another look.

If you want to start/stop it from RPC, yes.

monerod --max-concurrency=2 --public-node --data-dir=/root/.bitmonero --prep-blocks-threads=4 --p2p-bind-ip=0.0.0.0 --p2p-bind-port=18080 --start-mining AdDrEsS

mining port is 18080. am i right?

I wonder if we should publish a sample monerod config file for running on a smartphone

enable pruning, limit number of peers, limit bandwidth

There is no mining port.

hyc: :) maybe add some code to turn bluetooth on and syncing over it with nearby nodes? :)

That'd be nice.

syncing over bluetooth native? hmm. I'd consider just using bluetooth's IP layer and not worrying about it

BTW, with your new line, you're allowing anyone to mine on *their* address.

If you want to make your node both a public node and mine for you, add --restricted-rpc.

moneromooo: so as there is no mining port , then i need some proxy on the same server? or i need to add some option for mining port?

No idea what you're asking here.

What would a mining port do ? If it's "you submit new blocks to it", then it's the RPC port.

And it's 18081 by default.

you would want to set both a rpc-port and restricted-rpc-port and make them separate

moneromooo: there's a usability issue here, we need to add a feature to specify the rpc-restricted-bind-ip

so that the rpc-bind-ip can still be set to 127.0.0.1 and the rpc-restricted-bind-ip can be set to 0.0.0.0 (or something)

obviously 0.0.0.0 will conflict address-in-use with any other IP

i understand,that i should read 0.0.0.0 as "external ip"

right

I'd consider changing these options to -bind-addr and specify bot address and port in one option.

and allow specifying them multiple times, in case of a machine with multiple public addresses

hm, this is probably more of a -dev topic, sorry

what is zmq?

18082

what it used for?

it's supposed to be the next generation RPC protocol, supposed to be more efficient

and more widely used

ahh, ok, thanks

lookup ZeroMQ

is that ok, or there is mistakes? (i want to avoid downtime while restarting node to fix params)

monerod --max-concurrency=2 --public-node --data-dir=/root/.bitmonero --prep-blocks-threads=4 --p2p-bind-ip=11.22.33.44 --p2p-bind-port=18080 --rpc-bind-port=18081 --rpc-bind-ip=127.0.0.1 --rpc-login user:password --confirm-external-bind --start-mining AdDrEsS --restricted-rpc --rpc-restricted-bind-port=18888 --rpc-restricted-bind-ip=11.22.33.44 (--confirm-external-bind will be added if daemon asks it)

< moneromooo> --public-node and --rpc-login seem contradictory.

so, for mining i dont need rpc-login (as i'm not planning to stop it)

if you use --start-mining do you need the unrestricted rpc at all?

not shure, i think it will bring me the port for hashrate from outside

sorry , something happens, need to check ups. AFK for about 1 or 2 hours, i will read your replys later. thanks

currently there is no such monerod option for --rpc-restricted-bind-ip - this is a missing feature

are mix-ins still a thing?

Yes.

yes but now we call them mix-outs

cuz mixons are best reserved for ice cream

mixins*

in simple terms what is the difference between the daemon rpc and wallet rpc?

or rather what is their function

basically i installed monerod for stagenet as i'm tetsing and i'm trying to wrap my head around what does what

The daemon RPC controls the daemon. The wallet RPC controls the wallet. If you're asking what's the difference between the node daemon and the wallet daemon, the node keeps track of the blockchain, the wallet daemon keeps track of wallets.

makes sense, ty

can i fully use the walletrpc while still syncing?

Yes.

sweet

i wanna say no though

the json-rpc http server doesnt start listening until the wallet has synced afaik

it seems that it started re-syncing when i switched to stagenet and it's a lot slower, which is why i wonder

ah

It'll certainly be much slower till the dewmon's synced, yes.

Access to the db is currently guarded by a main mutex even when not technically needed.

thats my experience with it, i remember fucking around for an hour or so wondering why the FUCK isnt my wallet-rpc listening until i just waited patiently to see the "server listening on 0.0.0.0:18081" in the wallet-rpc

That's only till it's refreshed from the node.

true, daemon sync =/= wallet sync so there's that

monerod 15087 monero 10u IPv4 229833 0t0 TCP *:38080 (LISTEN)

monerod 15087 monero 14u IPv4 228884 0t0 TCP *:18081 (LISTEN)

you have the mainnet and the stagenet both on

likely explains the slowness

oh, that was not intentional

Same PID.

also weird, iunno lol

lol

It's the same daemon, just using non defualt ports.

great start

took out port argument to prevent more confusion lol

i hope you're not suggesting that as material to get started lol

sorry not directed at you

is there a public stagenet daemon i can use instead of waiting for sync?

and will it allow me to create wallets and subaddresses and all that stuff

I believe xmr.to might have one. But testing using random stranger's servers is often a bad idea since it introduces uncontrollable behaviour.

The wallet does not need the node to create wallets/subaddresses.

i'm considering using github.com/monero-ecosystem/monero-javascript and in its sample code it shows opening a wallet 'on the server'

that sounds like something i'd want

would help if it showed me how to create one to begin with lol

Stealthy: reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/f5ncyo/cli_trouble/fi1tq61

not exactly what you want tho

yea i should probably start reading to get the basic picture

Stealthy you can find a stagenet remote node here: community.xmr.to/nodes.html but as mentioned not necessarily relevant for you

ty

that helped @UkoeHB_

method not found, i guess this api lib is just incorrect

the others are 2-4 years old lol

anyone recommend a nodejs lib

all i want to do is create a wallet, create temporary subaddresses for endusers and monitor transactions

You can check out the functional_tests directory, they exercise those RPC.

bunch of python

are you suggesting i should reverse engineer those and utilize json calls directly :P

Kinda :)

The python calls are direct raw calls to the RPC.

maybe the way to go

Stealthy: web.getmonero.org/resources/developer-guides/wallet-rpc.html

a little out of date but it shows what you want :D

yep, think that's the route to go

fucking firefox calling home again, and I've got all telemetry and stuff disabled.

And they claim to be pro privacy, the little shitty cunts.,

I so hope someone makes a good browser I can switch to soon...

big marketing image

the moment they started with their dumbass 'suggestions' was the first bad omen

do an rms and get web pages emailed to you that you view in emacs gnus

calling home?

they have a support article that tells you how to disable it iirc

you disable it and then the next update adds something new to disable

wish javascript wasnt required for 90% of the web

and all those video codecs and what not

then you can make a secure browser

moneromooo: qutebrowser is quite minimal with no telemetry, but you have to like vim keybindings

wen mooobrowser

mooozilla

Big beasts. Firefox's source was hard to get into last I looked :/

you can build chromium

I'm not going to trust that.

rid of all the crap

sudo apt install links

links getmonero.org

That's text, wich is not always enough.

reading the dirty sites isn't the same as watching the dirty sites ;)

there's eww in emacs which is a worst of both worlds :D

they should enforce no remote resources for images and what not, no more cookies

'they'

getting retarded all these long fingers everywhere

"create_wallet" method not found ok

Stealthy: what version are you using?

create_wallet should exist

im guessing that its monerod running on that port not the wallet rpc?

i guess its a separate service that i should run

monero-wallet-rpc? yes

you probably don't need to call create_wallet. you start the wallet-rpc server with one that already exists, and then just make a subaddress (create_address) for each user

that could be an alternative

i guess i don't really need to my app to create one for me

for my*

languages: [ German', English', Spanish', French', ....

there we go

lol now the xmr.to stagenet faucet is throwing an internal server error

ok, tomorrow

you need stagenet coins? paste address

address: '47TdXb9UVdV525NESDwEYqY8sqs3GBNZb1ZMLzTg364qbj15ZQGc4qE3GqvprCPVCAPrKJxmuJhLv6Z4DPGCv1EUD1Tuhjm',

stagenet yea

that's a mainnet address

lol did i mess up again

that might explain the error :)

the wallet rpc is set to connect to local instance of monerod which has stagenet=1

you also need to run the wallet with --stagenet

then i used 'create_wallet'

oh.. well that was dumb xD

a bit surprised the wallet doesn't complain about that, actually

note that if you run it with --stagenet, it will use the 3808x ports by default, so you don't need to also specify those

configured it to use a specific port because it was giving me a headache

55FpdJEotvYcqULvajajkoNEoWZnmNKJTbTPzbsHcuUtRNMgoGETAo6GkqazQThNDQTQszcbRbzuxCqKQAdgk1j9C2R9i7o

community.xmr.to server throws an internal server error so cant test any address

i'll send you a few

awesome, thank you, then i can continue tonight :)

sent

how fast do you think stagenet will confirm

the big question is, make coffee or later xD

make coffee :)

it varies, you can `start_mining` to speed it up

wise

thats the cli right? it can mine?

the daemon does the mining, you can use the command in the wallet or directly in the daemon (but have to specify address explicitly then)

so in my case i'd open_wallet and start_mining

you would. this tx is confirmed now though

ah

result: {

balance: 0,

blocks_to_unlock: 0,

multisig_import_needed: false,

unlocked_balance: 0

}

i must be doing something stupid

see what i don't get is, when i call open_wallet, does the rpc server, like.. maintain a session or something? when i call get_address or getbalance does it know i want info for the previously opened wallet?

i pass account_index 0

been a while since i used rpc, but IIRC, yes

what's get_height say?

our tx is in block 530387

id: '84a3cbd5-5231-4562-b069-695c127effb7',

jsonrpc: '2.0',

result: { height: 10001 }

lol. yeah that's only a few years behind

what's the daemon's get_height say?

oh is it because my monerod is not done yet

82%

you might also have to call the `refresh` endpoint in the wallet once that's done

aah i see

things are starting to make sense lol
