Setup¶
Installation¶
pip3 install stakemachine [--user]
If you install using the --user
flag, the binaries of
stakemachine
and uptick
are located in ~/.local/bin
.
Otherwise they should be globally reachable.
Adding Keys¶
It is important to install the private key of your
bot’s account into the pybitshares wallet. This can be done using
uptick
which is installed as a dependency of stakemachine
:
uptick addkey
Configuration¶
You will need to create configuration file in YAML format. The default
file name is config.yml
, otherwise you can specify a different
config file using the --configufile X
parameter of stakemachine
.
Read more about the Configuration.
Running¶
The bot can be run by:
stakemachine run
It will ask for your wallet passphrase (that you have provide when
adding your private key to pybitshares using uptick addkey
).
If you want to prevent the password dialog, you can predefine an
environmental variable UNLOCK
, if you understand the security
implications.
