Binary Bot on Deriv

Visual automation for binary bot on deriv - bot.deriv.com

Binary Bot on Deriv uses Google Blockly to provide a puzzle like automation environment to trade using api.deriv.com API version 3.

Pre-installation

Ensure that your environment contains the following packages.

 - node >= 18.16.0
 - npm >= 9.5.0
 - git (for contribution)

Getting Started

Recommended extensions to start contributing to the project:

 - Prettier
 - ESLint

You can simply search for these extensions on VS Code and install them to start using.

Note: node -v and sudo node -v should be the same version.

Installation

1. Setup the project on local machine

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

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

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

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

  4. Enter project directory cd binary-bot

  5. Run npm run bootstrap

    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 confgure your project with Google Drive integration:

4. Starting a Development Server

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

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

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

Pushing changes to github

  2. Make your changes to the source code
  3. Run test command to make sure your changes are correct npm run test
  4. Run git fetch upstream master and git merge upstream/master to update your branch and avoid conflicts
  5. Push your changes to your forked repo:
git add .
git commit -m "describe your changes"

Test link deployment

The deployment for test link is done automatically:

Upon creating PR, Vercel will auto-generate a test link inside the PR. you can use that to preview the test link for the changes you have made.

PR Guidelines

  1. Use the developer 1|developer 2/task_name format for PR titles. (e.g.: dev1|dev2/fixed_emoji_issue, dev1/added_superfast_jellyfish)
    • Optional square bracket tag (e.g. [WIP]) can be at the end.
  2. Use the appropriate package labels available on the repo to indicate which packages your PR modifies.

FAQ

1. Issue with installing packages

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 run clean
  • Run npm run bootstrap

2. Cannot access the site

Make sure to use: localhost:8000
