Build & Development Commands

# Build the CLI binary
make build                  # Outputs: miner-cli

# Run tests
make test                   # Tests with race detection and coverage
go test -v ./pkg/mining/... # Run tests for specific package
go test -run TestName ./... # Run a single test

# Lint and format
make lint                   # Runs fmt, vet, and golangci-lint
make fmt                    # Format code only

# Generate Swagger docs (required after API changes)
make docs                   # Runs: swag init -g ./cmd/mining/main.go

# Development server (builds, generates docs, starts server)
make dev                    # Starts on localhost:9090

# Build for all platforms
make build-all              # Outputs to dist/

# Create release packages
make package                # Uses GoReleaser snapshot

# E2E Tests (Playwright)
make e2e                    # Run all E2E tests
make e2e-api                # Run API tests only (no browser)
make e2e-ui                 # Open Playwright UI for interactive testing

Architecture Overview

Go Backend (pkg/mining/)

The mining package provides a modular miner management system:

• mining.go: Core interfaces and types. The Miner interface defines the contract all miner implementations must follow (Install, Start, Stop, GetStats, etc.). Also contains Config for miner configuration and PerformanceMetrics for stats.

• miner.go: BaseMiner struct with shared functionality for all miners (binary discovery, installation from URL, archive extraction, hashrate history management). Uses XDG base directories via github.com/adrg/xdg.

• manager.go: Manager handles miner lifecycle. Maintains running miners in a map, supports autostart from config, runs background stats collection every 10 seconds. Key methods: StartMiner(), StopMiner(), ListMiners().

• service.go: RESTful API using Gin. Service wraps the Manager and exposes HTTP endpoints under configurable namespace (default /api/v1/mining). Swagger docs generated via swaggo annotations.

• xmrig.go / xmrig_start.go / xmrig_stats.go: XMRig miner implementation. Downloads from GitHub releases, generates config JSON, polls local HTTP API for stats.

• profile_manager.go: Manages saved mining configurations (profiles). Stored in ~/.config/lethean-desktop/mining_profiles.json.

• config_manager.go: Manages autostart settings and last-used configs for miners.

CLI (cmd/mining/)

Cobra-based CLI. Commands in cmd/mining/cmd/:

• serve - Main command, starts REST API server with interactive shell
• start/stop/status - Miner control
• install/uninstall/update - Miner installation management
• doctor - Check miner installations
• list - List running/available miners

Angular UI (ui/)

Angular 20+ frontend that builds to mbe-mining-dashboard.js web component. Communicates with the Go backend via the REST API.

cd ui
ng serve          # Development server on :4200
ng build          # Build to ui/dist/
ng test           # Run unit tests (Karma/Jasmine)
npm run e2e       # Run Playwright E2E tests

E2E Tests (ui/e2e/)

Playwright-based E2E tests covering both API and UI:

• e2e/api/: API tests (no browser) - system endpoints, miners, profiles CRUD
• e2e/ui/: Browser tests - dashboard, profiles, admin, setup wizard
• e2e/page-objects/: Page object pattern for UI components
• e2e/fixtures/: Shared test data

Tests automatically start the Go backend and Angular dev server via playwright.config.ts webServer config.

Key Patterns

• Interface-based design: Miner and ManagerInterface allow different miner implementations
• XDG directories: Config in ~/.config/lethean-desktop/, data in ~/.local/share/lethean-desktop/miners/
• Hashrate history: Two-tier storage - high-res (10s intervals, 5 min retention) and low-res (1 min averages, 24h retention)
• Syslog integration: Platform-specific logging via syslog_unix.go / syslog_windows.go

API Documentation

When running make dev, Swagger UI is available at: http://localhost:9090/api/v1/mining/swagger/index.html
