Easy way to start XMR Monero mining!
To run a xmr-stack-cpu without any compilation hustle:
Install docker for your system from: https://www.docker.com (DOCKER COMMUNITY EDITION works fine)
Run the docker app (for Windows or MacOs)
Download the docker image from repo - type in terminal:
$ docker pull cryptocurrency/xmr-stak-cpu
Start mining. 2 possible ways:
4.1. Run with argument WALLET and POOL in deattached mode (better!):
$ docker run -e WALLET="YourWallet" -e POOL="YourPool" -d cryptocurrency/xmr-stak-cpu
4.2. Run with argument WALLET and POOL in attached mode (press h to see your speed):
$ docker run -e WALLET="YourWallet" -e POOL="YourPool" -ti cryptocurrency/xmr-stak-cpu
Enjoy your mining
Note:
0. Compare to previous version you will seen installation in your window. It is ok, and was done to get a best performance from your cpu.
To increase a speed of mining, play with the number of cores in the docker app settings.
If speed is 0, check that wallet and pool provided correctly. If everything is correct, but speed is still 0, look in point before or reboot docker.
If you have an error "JSON config parse error ...", then just run image again by using command 4.1 or 4.2.
