Configuration 🛠️

config.csv

Configuring config.csv is a mandatory step to make GreedyBoy able to work on its own.

config.csv is formatted…. like a csv file.

Table representation 👨‍🏫

apiKey	apiPrivateKey	githubToken	repoName	dataBranchName
Api_Key	Api_Private_Key	Github_Token	kevinpruvost/GreedyBoy ( for instance )	data ( for instance )

File representation 📁

apiKey,apiPrivateKey,githubToken,repoName,dataBranchName
`Api_Key`,`Api_Private_Key`,`Github_Token`,kevinpruvost/GreedyBoy,data

How to get these informations 🗃️

Warning

Get yourself a Kraken account because GreedyBoy can’t work without it.

And also if you don’t have a Github account, create one.

In case you didn’t have a Github account, then you’ll be considered sussy from now on.

apiKey & apiPrivateKey

1. Go on Kraken Overview and click on your Name, Security and API

2. Click on Add key

3. For the permissions, pick Query Funds, Query Open Orders & Trades, Query Closed Orders & Trades , Create & Modify Orders, Cancel/Close Orders and Access Websockets API

4. Then you can finally access your API Key and API Private Key

githubToken

1. Go in here and click on Generate new token

2. Type in Note any name you want, just not something too sussy. Then check repo for the scopes

3. Then go down the page and click on Generate token

4. Then it’s good to go, you got your Github Token !

repoName

1. Go on github.com and create a New repository.

2. Configure & Create your repository.

3. You can now get repoName in these 2 fields.

dataBranchName

Warning

For this last step, you will need Github Dekstop or whatever form of Git you are using ( Git Bash , git (package from Linux) , …)

Github Desktop 💻

1. Clone the repository wherever you want

2. If you want to make GreedyBoy use the main branch of your repository you cant stop there and just take main as your `dataBranchName

However, if you want to make another branch, then click on Current branch , type in the new branch name and click on Create new branch .

3. Click on Publish branch and get your new branch name as dataBranchName

Git Command 👨‍💻

1. So if you want to go with brute force, go on whatever shell you wanna use.

cd into the directory you want to clone your repository to.

Then launch this command git clone $REPO_SSH_LINK|$REPO_HTTP_LINK .

2. cd into your repository, git branch $BRANCH_NAME , and git push -u origin $BRANCH_NAME .

3. You’re good to go, take $BRANCH_NAME as your dataBranchName .
