# pyasic
*A set of modules for interfacing with many common types of ASIC bitcoin miners, using both their API and SSH.*

## Documentation and Supported Miners
Documentation is located on Read the Docs as [pyasic](https://pyasic.readthedocs.io/en/latest/).
Supported miners are listed in the docs, [here](https://pyasic.readthedocs.io/en/latest/miners/supported_types/).
## Installation
You can install pyasic directly from pip with the command `pip install pyasic`.
For those of you who aren't comfortable with code and developer tools, there are windows builds of GUI applications that use this library [here](https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1DjR8UOS_g0ehfiJcgmrV0FFoqFvE9akW?usp=sharing).
## Developer Setup
It is highly reccommended that you contribute to this project through [`pyasic-super`](https://github.com/UpstreamData/pyasic-super) using its submodules. This allows testing in conjunction with other `pyasic` related programs.
<br>
This repo uses poetry for dependencies, which can be installed by following the guide on their website [here](https://python-poetry.org/docs/#installation).
After you have poetry installed, run `poetry install --with dev`, or `poetry install --with dev,docs` if you want to include packages required for documentation.
Finally, initialize pre-commit hooks with `poetry run pre-commit install`.
### Documentation Testing
Testing the documentation can be done by running `poetry run mkdocs serve`, whcih will serve the documentation locally on port 8000.
## Interfacing with miners programmatically
There are 2 main ways to get a miner (and the functions attached to it), via scanning or via the `MinerFactory()`.
#### Scanning for miners
```python
import asyncio
from pyasic.network import MinerNetwork
# define asynchronous function to scan for miners
async def scan_and_get_data():
# Define network range to be used for scanning
# This can take a list of IPs, a constructor string, or an IP and subnet mask
# The standard mask is /24, and you can pass any IP address in the subnet
net = MinerNetwork("192.168.1.69", mask=24)
# Scan the network for miners
# This function returns a list of miners of the correct type as a class
miners: list = await net.scan_network_for_miners()
# We can now get data from any of these miners
# To do them all we have to create a list of tasks and gather them
tasks = [miner.get_data() for miner in miners]
# Gather all tasks asynchronously and run them
data = await asyncio.gather(*tasks)
# Data is now a list of MinerData, and we can reference any part of that
# Print out all data for now
for item in data:
print(item)
if __name__ == "__main__":
asyncio.run(scan_and_get_data())
```
#### Getting a miner if you know the IP
```python
import asyncio
from pyasic import get_miner
# define asynchronous function to get miner and data
async def get_miner_data(miner_ip: str):
# Use MinerFactory to get miner
# MinerFactory is a singleton, so we can just get the instance in place
miner = await get_miner(miner_ip)
# Get data from the miner
data = await miner.get_data()
print(data)
if __name__ == "__main__":
asyncio.run(get_miner_data("192.168.1.69"))
```
### Advanced data gathering
If needed, this library exposes a wrapper for the miner API that can be used for advanced data gathering.
#### List available API commands
```python
import asyncio
from pyasic import get_miner
async def get_api_commands(miner_ip: str):
# Get the miner
miner = await get_miner(miner_ip)
# List all available commands
print(miner.api.get_commands())
if __name__ == "__main__":
asyncio.run(get_api_commands("192.168.1.69"))
```
#### Use miner API commands to gather data
The miner API commands will raise an `APIError` if they fail with a bad status code, to bypass this you must send them manually by using `miner.api.send_command(command, ignore_errors=True)`
```python
import asyncio
from pyasic import get_miner
async def get_api_commands(miner_ip: str):
# Get the miner
miner = await get_miner(miner_ip)
# Run the devdetails command
# This is equivalent to await miner.api.send_command("devdetails")
devdetails: dict = await miner.api.devdetails()
print(devdetails)
if __name__ == "__main__":
asyncio.run(get_api_commands("192.168.1.69"))
```
