Makes price info available to the ATX Crypto Club slack and a web API used by catx.io. Prices are currently based on last exchange price and not order book availability (yet).
Module deps:
- slackbot
- flask
- flask-cors
- pyquery
- networkx
- coinmarketcap
- filelock
- peewee
- krakenex (optional for now)
- mysqldb (optional)
This thing is a work in progress and has known issues like being slow and crashy especially after a storm of get_price requests (like in the web API case). I usually run it with the following script:
#!/bin/bash
export SLACKBOT_API_TOKEN="<your slackbot API token>"
until /usr/bin/python -c "import atxcf; atxcf.start_agent()"; do
echo ":// agent crashed with exit code $?. Respawning.." >&2
sleep 1
done
A similar script for the webapi is included.
