Binary Bot

Visual automation for binary bot- bot.binary.com

Binary Bot uses Google Blockly to provide a puzzle like automation environment to trade using binary.com API version 3.

Pre-installation

Ensure that your environment contains the following packages.

 - node
 - npm
 - git (for contribution)

Installation

1. Setup the project on local machine

In order to work with Binary-Bot application, you must create your own version of this project. Please fork the project - https://github.com/binary-com/binary-bot to your git account.

You will need to perform the following on your development machine:

  1. Change the current working directory to the location where you want the cloned directory.

  2. Clone the forked repo using git clone [URL for the forked repo]

  3. Run cd binary-bot

  4. Create a feature branch from master - git checkout -b [branchName].

  5. Run npm install

    Note: - issue with installing packages

2. Configuring Hosts file

In order to run our application for the first time, you need to configure your hosts file:

If you are using a UNIX based system (Mac or Linux), Do the following:

  1. Open terminal.
  2. Open hosts file in your preferred text editor using sudo vim /etc/hosts.
  3. Add a new entry pointing to 127.0.0.1 localbot.binary.sx
  4. Save the file

For Windows:

  1. Run Microsoft Notepad as an administrator.

  2. From Notepad, open the file: c:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts

  3. Add a new entry pointing to 127.0.0.1 localbot.binary.sx

  4. Save the file

3. Preparing environment variables

If you want to use Google Drive features in the project (to Save/Load strategies) you need to create a file called .env at the project root with the following content:

GD_CLIENT_ID=GOOGLE_DRIVE_CLIENT_ID
GD_API_KEY=GOOGLE_DRIVE_API_KEY
GD_APP_ID=GOOGLE_DRIVE_APP_ID

Here comes useful links for more information on how to configure your project with Google Drive integration:

4. Starting a Development Server

Make sure to set the endpoint for running the application on the localhost

  1. Run npm start on the binarybot directory. This will open the application in your default browser.

    Note: - Getting Permission Denied Error

  3. Navigate to http://localbot.binary.sx/bot.html (Note that the protocol is http and not https)

    Note: - Getting error "This site can’t be reached" on localhost

  4. And now you are ready with your setup.Login to the binary account using the Binary.com account credentials. Run the bot

FAQ

If you couldnt install binary bot with a different node version, try cleaning npm cache.

  • To clear a cache in npm, we need to run the npm cache clean --force command in our terminal.
  • Delete cache directory. The default cache directory is ~/.npm on Posix (mac or linux), or %AppData%/npm-cache on Windows.
  • Run rm -rf ~/.npm
  • Run npm install

Try sudo npm startinstead of npm start
