Chrome Headless Coinhive
Not using coinhive any more, jse is betterĀ¬
leaving this for reference
Save some resources by running the clickforafrica miner in headless mode.
Install chromium-browser then
chromium-browser --headless --disable-gpu --repl https://clickforafrica.org/mine-for-africa/
if errors re. gpu:
chromium-browser --headless --repl https://clickforafrica.org/mine-for-africa/
headless mode – REPL enabled, (Read-Evaluate-Print-Loop, to execute javascript in the DOM via command line).
at the prompt:
miner = null;
Then start the miner with:
miner.start()
And then check it is running with
miner.isRunning()
docs are [gone! coinhive is no more]
for google chrome use google-chrome instead.
