Create the database:
$ createuser miningcore
$ createdb miningcore
$ psql (enter the password for postgres)
Inside psql execute:
alter user miningcore with encrypted password 'some-secure-password';
grant all privileges on database miningcore to miningcore;
Import the database schema:
$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/coinfoundry/miningcore/master/src/Miningcore/Persistence/Postgres/Scripts/createdb.sql
$ psql -d miningcore -U miningcore -f createdb.sql
If you are planning to run a Multipool-Cluster, the simple setup might not perform well enough under high load. In this case you are strongly advised to use PostgreSQL 11 or higher. After performing the steps outlined in the basic setup above, perform these additional steps:
WARNING: The following step will delete all recorded shares. Do NOT do this on a production pool unless you backup your shares
table using pg_backup
first!
$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/coinfoundry/miningcore/master/src/Miningcore/Persistence/Postgres/Scripts/createdb_postgresql_11_appendix.sql
$ psql -d miningcore -U miningcore -f createdb_postgresql_11_appendix.sql
After executing the command, your shares
table is now a list-partitioned table which dramatically improves query performance, since almost all database operations Miningcore performs are scoped to a certain pool.
The following step needs to performed once for every new pool you add to your cluster. Be sure to replace all occurences of mypool1
in the statement below with the id of your pool from your Miningcore configuration file:
CREATE TABLE shares_mypool1 PARTITION OF shares FOR VALUES IN ('mypool1');
Once you have done this for all of your existing pools you should now restore your shares from backup.

A public production pool requires a web-frontend for your users to check their hashrate, earnings etc. Miningcore does not include such frontend but there are several community projects that can be used as starting point. Feel free to discuss ideas/issues with fellow pool operators using our Gitter Channel.
