Nethereum 2.0.0-rc5 Miner

Question

In the previous version of Nethereum (1.0.6), I was able to do something like this:

var miningResult = await web3.Miner.Start.SendRequestAsync(200);
Assert.IsTrue(miningResult);

In 2.0.0-rc5 I get an error: Web3 does not contain a definition of Miner How can I do the same in version 2.0.0-rc5?

Answer 1

Nethereum 2.0.0 has moved all the specific Geth methods to Nethereum.Geth. To start the mining process, you will need to use Web3Geth instead of Web3.

Steps:

1. install nuget package with Geth Install-Package Nethereum.Geth -Pre 2.
2. Create and use Web3Geth var web3Geth = new Web3Geth();
3. async web3Geth.Miner.Start.SendRequestAsync(6);
