How build your own package
Hive supports custom miners which you can cook yourself. You will need to implement several easy scripts to get your superminer to work and send stats to Hive. Please take existing integrations as a starting point.
Integration doc is here
To install custom archive manually you can just unpack it to /hive/miners/custom
To install it from URL run
/hive/miners/custom/custom-get url-to-your-superminer
Use “-f” argument at the end to reinstall it.
/hive/miners/custom/custom-get url-to-your-superminer -f
Since v0.6 for updating Custom miner is it just enough to change URL in your Flight Sheet for new one
