# Module miner
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!
## Method miner_setEtherbase
The `getHashrate` method get hashrate in H/s (Hash operations per second).
Parameters:
- etherbase: address, required
Returns:
result: bool
Example:
```shell
curl -s -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" ${RPC} -d '{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"id": 1001,
"method": "miner_setEtherbase",
"params": [
"0xD4CE02705041F04135f1949Bc835c1Fe0885513c"
]
}' | jq
```
Response:
```json
{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"id": 1001,
"result": true
}
```
## Method miner_setExtra
The `setExtra` method sets the extra data a miner can include when miner blocks. This is capped at 32 bytes.
Parameters:
- extra: string, required
Returns:
result: bool
Example:
```shell
curl -s -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" ${RPC} -d '{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"id": 1001,
"method": "miner_setExtra",
"params": [
"string"
]
}' | jq
```
Response:
```json
{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"id": 1001,
"result": true
}
```
## Method miner_setGasPrice
The `setGasPrice` method sets the minimal accepted gas price when mining transactions. Any transactions that are below this limit are excluded from the mining process.
Parameters:
- gasPrice: big.Int, required
Returns:
result: bool
Example:
```shell
curl -s -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" ${RPC} -d '{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"id": 1001,
"method": "miner_setGasPrice",
"params": [
"0x1"
]
}' | jq
```
Response:
```json
{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"id": 1001,
"result": true
}
```
## Method miner_start
The `start` method start the miner with the given number of threads. If threads is nil the number of workers started is equal to the number of logical CPUs that are usable by this process. If mining is already running, this method adjust the number of threads allowed to use.
Parameters:
- threads: int, optional
Returns:
result: bool
Example:
```shell
curl -s -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" ${RPC} -d '{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"id": 1001,
"method": "miner_start",
"params": [
1
]
}' | jq
```
Response:
```json
{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"id": 1001,
"result": true
}
```
## Method miner_stop
The `stop` method stop the CPU mining operation.
Parameters:
None
Returns:
result: bool
Example:
```shell
curl -s -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" ${RPC} -d '{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"id": 1001,
"method": "miner_stop"
}' | jq
