Currently you need Python 3.9 or greater.
NOTE: On macOS you may get a warning from urllib3. The default installation of Python includes OpenSSL version compiled with LibreSSL, which is no longer supported. You can fix this by installing Python with Homebrew. For details see this issue.
Run the display with the command:
python -m pricedisplay
The package creates a settings file config.yml in your config path.
| OS | Settings Location |
|---|---|
| macOS | ~/Library/Application Support/pricedisplay/ |
| GNU/Linux | ~/.config/pricedisplay/ |
| Windows | %APPDATA%\pricedisplay\ |
You can also pass your own settings file as an argument:
python -m pricedisplay --settings PATH
The actual display of the graph depends on your terminal font and colors. For best results you should have UTF-8 encoding and a font which includes unicode East Asian ambiguous characters (in wide format). Some tested combinations are:
| OS | Terminal | Font |
|---|---|---|
| macOS | iTerm with Bash | Hack |
| GNU/Linux | Gnome with Bash | Ubuntu Mono |
| Windows | Mintty with Bash | Lucida Console |
