The `miner` API is **now deprecated** because mining was switched off at the transition to proof-of-stake. It existed to provide remote control the node's mining operation and set various mining specific settings. It is provided here for historical interest!

|
## miner_getHashrate
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Get hashrate in H/s (Hash operations per second).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
| Client | Method invocation |
|
||
|
|
| :------ | ----------------------------------------------- |
|
||
|
|
| Console | `miner.getHashrate()` |
|
||
|
|
| RPC | `{"method": "miner_getHashrate", "params": []}` |

|
||
|
|
## miner_setExtra
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Sets the extra data a miner can include when miner blocks. This is capped at 32 bytes.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
| Client | Method invocation |

||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## miner_setGasPrice
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Sets the minimal accepted gas price when mining transactions. Any transactions that are below this limit are excluded from the mining process.

||
|
|
| Client | Method invocation |
|
||
|
|
| :------ | ----------------------------------------------------- |
|

|
|
| Console | `miner.setGasPrice(number)` |
|
||
|
|
| RPC | `{"method": "miner_setGasPrice", "params": [number]}` |
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## miner_setRecommitInterval
|
||
|
|
|
||
|

||
|
|
## miner_start
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## miner_setEtherbase
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Sets the etherbase, where mining rewards will go.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
| Client | Method invocation |
|
||
|
|
| :------ | ------------------------------------------------------- |
|
||
|
|
| Go | `miner.SetEtherbase(common.Address) bool` |

|
||
|

|
## miner_setGasLimit
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Sets the gas limit the miner will target when mining. Note: on networks where EIP-1559 is activated, this should be set to twice the gas target (i.e. the effective gas used on average per block) to be.
