asic-rs is a miner management and control library, designed to abstract away the complexity of working with different types of ASIC miners.
§Getting Started
The first step to controlling a miner with asic-rs is to get the struct that represents it, with methods used for data gathering and control.
§Getting a miner
If you know the IP address of your miner, it is fairly easy to discover it. Use the MinerFactory to select the correct type.
use asic_rs::MinerFactory;
use std::str::FromStr;
use std::net::IpAddr;
use tokio;
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
let factory = MinerFactory::new();
let ip = IpAddr::from_str("192.168.1.10").unwrap();
let miner = factory.get_miner(ip).await.unwrap();
// now we can do data gathering or control
}§Miner discovery
If you don’t know the specific IP of your miner, asic-rs can discover it on your network.
use asic_rs::MinerFactory;
use std::str::FromStr;
use tokio;
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
let subnet = "192.168.1.0/24";
let factory = MinerFactory::from_subnet(subnet).unwrap();
let miners = factory.scan().await.unwrap();
}There are other ways to define a discovery range to be scanned, such as:
- Octets
let factory = MinerFactory::from_octets("192", "168", "1", "1-255").unwrap();- Range string
let factory = MinerFactory::from_range("192.168.1.1-255").unwrap();These also have corresponding methods for appending to an existing factory, or overwriting existing ranges.
See MinerFactory for more details.
§Discovery tuning
For large scans, MinerFactory automatically tries to raise process file descriptor limits when needed.
On Unix this uses RLIMIT_NOFILE, and on Windows it uses stdio max-file limits.
This is fail-open: if the OS does not allow raising the limit, scanning still runs.
let factory = MinerFactory::from_subnet("192.168.1.0/24")
.unwrap()
.with_concurrent_limit(2500)
.with_nofile_limit(20000);
let miners = factory.scan().await.unwrap();Disable automatic nofile adjustment if needed:
let factory = MinerFactory::new().with_nofile_adjustment(false);§Data gathering
Getting data is very simple with asic-rs, everything you need can be gathered with a single call. Extending the “Getting a miner” example:
use asic_rs::MinerFactory;
use std::str::FromStr;
use std::net::IpAddr;
use tokio;
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
let factory = MinerFactory::new();
let ip = IpAddr::from_str("192.168.1.10").unwrap();
let miner_opt = factory.get_miner(ip).await.unwrap();
// First unwrap represents an error getting the miner
// Now make sure there is actually a valid, supported miner
if let Some(miner) = miner_opt {
let data = miner.get_data().await;
}
}If you only want specific data, that can be done with individual function calls:
let mac = miner.get_mac().await;Most data points from [MinerData][data::miner::MinerData] have a corresponding get_... function.
See the [GetMinerData][miners::backends::traits::GetMinerData] trait for more info.
§Miner control
Controlling a miner is very similar to getting data in asic-rs.
Each miner has some control functions defined by the [HasMinerControl][miners::backends::traits::HasMinerControl] trait.
Again extending the “Getting a miner” example:
use asic_rs::MinerFactory;
use std::str::FromStr;
use std::net::IpAddr;
use tokio;
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
let factory = MinerFactory::new();
let ip = IpAddr::from_str("192.168.1.10").unwrap();
let miner_opt = factory.get_miner(ip).await.unwrap();
// First unwrap represents an error getting the miner
// Now make sure there is actually a valid, supported miner
if let Some(miner) = miner_opt {
let result = miner.restart().await;
if let Ok(true) = result {
println!("Miner restart succeeded")
}
}
}§Authentication
By default, each backend uses its built-in default credentials (e.g. root/root for AntMiner,
admin/admin for WhatsMiner). To use custom credentials, call set_auth on the miner:
use asic_rs::MinerFactory;
use asic_rs_core::traits::auth::MinerAuth;
use std::str::FromStr;
use std::net::IpAddr;
use tokio;
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
let factory = MinerFactory::new();
let ip = IpAddr::from_str("192.168.1.10").unwrap();
let miner_opt = factory.get_miner(ip).await.unwrap();
if let Some(mut miner) = miner_opt {
miner.set_auth(MinerAuth::new("myuser", "mypassword"));
// All subsequent operations use the custom credentials
let data = miner.get_data().await;
}
}Credentials can also be passed during discovery via build_miner, which applies them
to both discovery (e.g. AntMiner digest auth) and runtime operations.

§Setting up pre-commit hooks
This project uses pre-commit to enforce commit message formatting and code quality. To set up the hooks:
pip install pre-commit
pre-commit install --hook-type commit-msg --hook-type pre-commit§README
The README is auto generated with doc2readme, please do not edit it manually.
Instead, changes can be made in lib.rs.
