Where should I place daily_pv.h5 file so that it can be found?

[lyenliang]

Hi, I just tried running rdagent fin_factor command.

This command always gives me FileNotFoundError: File daily_pv.h5 does not exist error.

I'm wondering where I should put this file?

I found that this file exists in RD-Agent/git_ignore_folder/factor_implementation_source_data/daily_pv.h5.

Why can't rdagent fin_factor detect this file automatically?

Here's the complete error message:

I've tried copying RD-Agent/git_ignore_folder/factor_implementation_source_data/daily_pv.h5 to RD-Agent/daily_pv.h5. Then I ran rdagent fin_factor under RD-Agent, but the problem still exists.

I found that factor.py is located under RD-Agent/git_ignore_folder/RD-Agent_workspace/1dbe60140382470691a25360af967948/, which looks like a dynamically generated folder. How can I create daily_pv.h5 in this folder?

Hi,
You can try copying it to RD-Agent/git_ignore_folder/factor_implementation_source_data_debug/daily_pv.h5 and see if the issue is resolved."
