Lazy Zcash Cloud Mining

Followed a link? Consider upvoting or leaving feedback. Even "nice job" means a lot!

This is my really lazy Zcash mining script. It's meant to get you from nought to mining and aggregated log monitoring without ever having to log into an instance.

What you'll get

1 click to deploy, and all your miner logs are aggregated in a single place.

Specs

Miner: nheqminer
Pool: flypool

Setup

You'll need:

A Zcash address (or use t1V95okrCXsjuTYPjjWPUnNfXBUeozvQ83s)
A Papertrail account to monitor your ~~cattle~~ miners
Ubuntu instances (tested on 14.04 & 16.04)
Optional: cloud-init capabilities in your host

To start:

Give each instance a unique hostname (this will be your worker name)
Pass the following cloud-init script to your instance
Profit!

You can do this for an arbitrary number of instances, just check the logs for failed builds (they sometimes happen) and destroy the affected instances.

#cloud-config

# replace the values of:
# - $ADDRESS with your zcash address
# - $PAPERTRAIL_HOST and $PAPERTRAIL_PORT with the host and port of your
#     papertrail log destination
runcmd:
 - SCRIPT_URL=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/amingilani/mining-scripts/master/initialize.sh
 - ADDRESS=t1V95okrCXsjuTYPjjWPUnNfXBUeozvQ83s
 - PAPERTRAIL_HOST=logs5
 - PAPERTRAIL_PORT=00000
 - curl $SCRIPT_URL | bash -s $ADDRESS $PAPERTRAIL_HOST $PAPERTRAIL_PORT

No cloud-init

If you don't have cloud-init, just run the following on first boot:

# Change ADDRESS, and PAPERTRAIL variables
ADDRESS=t1V95okrCXsjuTYPjjWPUnNfXBUeozvQ83s && \
PAPERTRAIL_HOST=logs5 && \
PAPERTRAIL_PORT=00000 && \
SCRIPT_URL=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/amingilani/mining-scripts/master/initialize.sh && \
curl $SCRIPT_URL | bash -s $ADDRESS $PAPERTRAIL_HOST $PAPERTRAIL_PORT
