Dedicated cpuminer #1734

Closed Barterio closed 3 years ago

Barterio commented 3 years ago

Hi there. I'm running btcd node and made some changes to cpuminer which I want to test before making PR. Is there any config guide about setting up cpu miner without whole blockchain sync? I've looked through all documentation at repository and I'm possibly missing something. Thank you in advance

What do you mean? It's a standalone package, so you can import it by itself if you need to.

Assuming you want to write some unit tests for it, then you can create a fake simnet chain, which doesn't require you to download/process the entire chain or anything like that.
