Setup and manage GUNBOT 3.3 on Linux.

If you want to setup a brand new Debian or Ubuntu VPS to run GUNBOT, just log into your new VPS as root and run this install script:

cd
curl -qsL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BeerK0in/generator-gunbot/master/install.sh | bash -- && exec bash

After the setup run:

gcd
ginit

That script will

• update the system (apt upgrade),
• install node 6.x,
• install required tools (yo, pm2, unzip),
• install the GUNBOT 3.3,
• creates some handy aliases,
• install this generator-gunbot

Aliases

The installer also sets up some aliases to do more with less. :)

• gcd: Go to the folder GUNBOT is installed
• gadd: Use the generator to add a new pair (*)
• gl: Get a list of all running GUNBOTs
• glog [botname or number]: Shows the log of the selected bot (use gl to get name)
• gstop [botname or number]: Stops a running bot (use gl to get name)
• gstart [botname or number]: Starts a stopped bot (use gl to get name)

(*)For now gadd will use the same settings as defined in the first run of the generator. A next version will allow you to set specific strategies for new trade pairs.

Updates

To update follow these steps:

1. Login to your server.
2. Run this update script

cd
curl -qsL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BeerK0in/generator-gunbot/master/update.sh | bash --

3. Run ginit again to start all bots with delay

gcd
ginit

4. Press ENTER for every question (it will use your last settings)
5. [optional] Press ENTER on the conflict of ALLPAIRS (*)
6. Wait till all bots are started.
7. [optional] If you have changed some configs manually, please copy them from the backup folder back into the gunbot folder:

cp /opt/gunbot-backup-<NUMBER>/poloniex-BTC_XXX-config.js /opt/gunbot/

(*) The conflict could happen if you hav an older version of the generator, because the default settings have changed a bit. In that case it is very likely you see this question. Just press ENTER:

conflict ALLPAIRS-params.js
? Overwrite ALLPAIRS-params.js? (Ynaxdh)

If you just want to use the generator on any OS with installed GUNBOT 3.3 Core Edition, read on.

First, install Yeoman, pm2 and generator-gunbot using npm (we assume you have pre-installed node.js).

npm install -g yo
npm install -g pm2
npm install -g generator-gunbot

To init GUNBOT:

cd /path/to/gunbot
yo gunbot init

To add a new currency to GUNBOT:

yo gunbot add

This initial version of the generator-gunbot has some limitations:

• Only GUNBOT 3.3 support
• Only Poloniex support
• Only BTC to XXX support
