Firstly, thank you for taking the time and expressing interest in contributing to the Blankly project 馃帀馃帀!
Before you contribute we need you to sign the CLA.
Contributions are welcome. To ensure a quick and easy merge, just make sure you look through the way the files are organized, and you make the changes where they make sense and are easy to maintain!
The first step to getting started is to install from source. Our best suggestions is to use this in conjunction with an anaconda environment or a venv to make sure that you separate the production blankly from your local source.
$ pip install pytest pytest_mock- Ensure that you have proper API keys on the various exchanges to run the test, or submit a PR, and we can run them.
- Note that the keys should be placed inside
keys.jsonat./tests/config
- Note that the keys should be placed inside
Now you should be up and running and installed from source.
In the root blankly directory simply run
$ pytestIf no tests are found add an __init__.py file to the tests folder.
- Testing out API endpoints
- You can test out the endpoints we have provided and make sure everything works as intended. If there are some subtle flaws, just make a pull!
- Adding new exchanges
- Try adding exchanges or new endpoints to the ones that we're missing. Adding price data from different trading services can be extremely useful for the community.
- We're currently skipping over deposit, withdrawal and transfer endpoints because the vulnerabilities created for the software aren't currently clear. If you think you see a safe way to implement these, open a suggestion.
Feel free to take one of the features that are in the works on our package roadmap
