Looking on the hashrate tables or logs of ones mine rigs is quit boring and not fancy. As you can see:

Something like this more pleasing for the eye:

So I decided to use some of the current technologies for retrieving metrics from distributed nodes in a network or over the internet. For collection the data I will use API of XMRIG, for storing the data I will use InfluxDB and for creating some easy boiler plate graphs I will use Grafana.
My dashboard will not be as fancy as the example but lets start by prepare the necessary data, the database and the visualization.

I will show:

1. Setup the API of XMRIG
2. Query and store API data into InfluxDB
3. Show data on fancy dashboards with Grafana

My setup

I run 1 Raspberry Pi 2 Model B and 4 nodes with 4 cpus miners and 3 gpus. I will use the Raspberry Pi 2 Model B as host for the InfluxDB and Grafana, and will let the Raspberry Pi 2 Model B collect the data from rigs.

Lets beginn with prepare the rigs.

Setup API on XMRIG rigs

All rigs running XMRIG with HTTP built-in as service. So I only need to change the configuration files of services to enable the HTTP API. To enable the feature change options http.enabled to true, set the IP address, select a port and for some kind of security set an access token. This is an example of one configuration
{
"api": {
"id": null,
"worker-id": "Rick name"
},
"http": {
"enabled": true,
"host": "x.x.x.x",
"port": 9971,
"access-token": "theAccesToken",
"restricted": true
},
...

In addition to the HTTP API option, I gave all rigs a worker-id which I will use like a name and store in the database.

Test API

curl -X GET -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Authorization: Bearer theAccesToken" http://x.x.x.x:9971/1/summary

The result should like look like this.

Setting up InfluxDB and Grafana, and connecting the peaces of HTTP API nodes, database and visualization I will show in future posts.
