How to set up Jesse on Ubuntu — Transcript

Full transcript

1. 0:00hey guys it's Sol in this video I'm
2. 0:01going to show you how to set up Jesse on
3. 0:03a brand new untu machine now we already
4. 0:05supported the docker setup but that
5. 0:07won't give you the maximum speed however
6. 0:09a setup like this is going to take
7. 0:11advantage of the most resources that
8. 0:13your machine has which could be really
9. 0:14handy when you're doing back test or
10. 0:16running an optimization session now it's
11. 0:17important to note that if you are going
12. 0:19to set up Jesse on a VPS for doing live
13. 0:22trading in production then I highly
14. 0:24recommend actually going with the docker
15. 0:25setup because that one is much easier to
16. 0:27maintain and the extra speed that I'm
17. 0:29talking about native installation in
18. 0:31this video can't really be felt in a
19. 0:33live trading session so with that out of
20. 0:35the way let's get right into the video
21. 0:36all right first we're going to have to
22. 0:37install python itself however instead of
23. 0:39installing python directly I'm going to
24. 0:41use this tool called miniconda which is
25. 0:43really great for doing research because
26. 0:45it gives us isolated environments which
27. 0:47are similar to python environments but
28. 0:49way better and more isolated it also
29. 0:51allows us to select the python version
30. 0:53that you want to use which is really
31. 0:54handy because let's say you want to use
32. 0:56one python version for Jesse and another
33. 0:58library that you want to use I simply
34. 0:59Google will download minondo so let's
35. 1:01open it all right go to this URL skip
36. 1:04registration now this one is for
37. 1:06Anaconda which will give us some
38. 1:08graphical user interface which isn't
39. 1:10what I need so I will scroll down to get
40. 1:12to the miniconda installer now from here
41. 1:14you need to choose the correct installer
42. 1:16for your machine now most of you guys
43. 1:18are running an x86 machine so you need
44. 1:20to download this one but in my case I
45. 1:22had to download the arm version because
46. 1:24I'm running my auntu through the
47. 1:26virtualization on a Mac machine it's
48. 1:28also important to note that if you're
49. 1:30machine is arm at the moment of
50. 1:31recording this video you can set up
51. 1:33Jessi on it at least for doing research
52. 1:35but we don't officially support it so if
53. 1:37you are getting a machine or if you are
54. 1:39setting up a server or whatever I highly
55. 1:41recommend going with the x86 version now
56. 1:43I already downloaded it so I'm just
57. 1:45going to CD into the directory that I
58. 1:47have it so firstly open a terminal all
59. 1:49right so I'm going to run CD and then
60. 1:51PWD cuz I want to see where I am all
61. 1:54right the ls right now C into the
62. 1:58downloads folder
63. 2:01and there is the file that I downloaded
64. 2:04now to run this I'm going to Simply say
65. 2:07bash and then
66. 2:10miniconda let's press
67. 2:13enter let's scroll
68. 2:23down WR
69. 2:25yes it says press enter to confirm the
70. 2:27location
71. 2:32all right so I'm getting this error
72. 2:33because I ran this before so it says I
73. 2:35need to add the dasu option to
74. 2:48update all
75. 2:50right all right so now it's it's asking
76. 2:53me if I want to update my shell profile
77. 2:56to automatically initial cond and I do
78. 2:58want that so I'm going to write yes all
79. 2:59right just to be sure let's open a new
80. 3:01terminal Tab and I'm going to run the
81. 3:03cond command here and it still
82. 3:05recognizes it which is a good sign now
83. 3:07we need to create our very first
84. 3:09environment for Jesse to do that I'm
85. 3:11going to say cond create D- name and I'm
86. 3:14going to give it a name such as Jesse
87. 3:17this could be anything by the way and
88. 3:18then I'm going to pass the python
89. 3:20version to be
90. 3:232.12 all right so it's asking for
91. 3:25confirmation press
92. 3:27enter now we're going to have to wait to
93. 3:29download the python version that we
94. 3:30asked for all right we're done now to
95. 3:32activate our environment all we need to
96. 3:34do is to say cond activate Jess now
97. 3:38before I press enter notice that in here
98. 3:40it's saying base but after I press enter
99. 3:44it says Jesse and that's how I know that
100. 3:46my environment have been activated and
101. 3:48if I run let's say pip D-
102. 3:52version I can see the name of the
103. 3:55environment which is Jesse all right now
104. 3:57that we have python we can install Jesse
105. 3:59itself all right so so to install Jesse
106. 4:00itself all I need to say is PIP
107. 4:04install
108. 4:08Jessie all right now Jessi itself is
109. 4:11installed and we can even go and create
110. 4:13the J Project so for that I'm going to
111. 4:15go to my home directory and let's see
112. 4:18what I have here okay and to create a
113. 4:21Jess project I need to fetch it from
114. 4:23GitHub so let's open our documentation
115. 4:30and go to the installation page to
116. 4:32create a new Jess project I'm going to
117. 4:34copy this line here open my terminal and
118. 4:37paste the command
119. 4:39here now this will fetch a project and
120. 4:42name it my bot and you could rename this
121. 4:44to whatever you want by the way now I'm
122. 4:46going to go into my
123. 4:49bot all right next I will create an
124. 4:52environment file by copying it from the
125. 4:55example file so I'm going to say cp.
126. 4:58example and then MV all right now let's
127. 5:01open the project file now to do that
128. 5:03you're going to need a code editor I
129. 5:04already downloaded vs code which is
130. 5:07completely free and open source and
131. 5:09really good option for this all right so
132. 5:11I'm going to go to Open folder and I
133. 5:14will select my project and press
134. 5:17open I will say yes I trust this project
135. 5:21and here's the file now here you can see
136. 5:23that we need a post scale database and
137. 5:26also ready for a caching database so we
138. 5:28also need to install these two for that
139. 5:30I'm going to go back to our
140. 5:31documentation I will go to the
141. 5:33environment setup
142. 5:35Ubuntu I will scroll down to come to the
143. 5:39post SQL now let's copy this line open
144. 5:43the terminal and paste it
145. 5:45here this is asking for my password I
146. 5:48will give it we'll say
147. 5:52yes all right that is done now I need to
148. 5:55copy these commands in order to create a
149. 5:58database for JC and a user and assign
150. 6:01that user to that table all right next I
151. 6:03need to copy these lines one by one and
152. 6:05paste it into the terminal to generate
153. 6:07my first database table user and assign
154. 6:10that user to that table now I'm going to
155. 6:11Speed the video so that it won't Bor
156. 6:14you all right now the database is ready
157. 6:17and we can move on to install R so let's
158. 6:19copy this
159. 6:21command and paste it here sudo app get
160. 6:24install ready
161. 6:26server say yes
162. 6:30all right now we don't need to generate
163. 6:31like a table for radi and all the
164. 6:33default values are fine all right so now
165. 6:35we're ready to run Jesse but before I do
166. 6:37that I will go to the visual studio code
167. 6:40and you see this value here by as it
168. 6:43says in the comment by default this is
169. 6:45set to work with the docker installation
170. 6:47but we are running things natively so I
171. 6:49need to comment this line and comment
172. 6:52out this other line which sets the post
173. 6:54host into Local Host and I also need to
174. 6:58do the same for red now by the way if
175. 7:00you own a premium account and you want
176. 7:02to log in so that the premium features
177. 7:04would show up you also need to generate
178. 7:06an API key from this address on our
179. 7:08website and paste that value here also
180. 7:11the password that you set here is the
181. 7:13one used inside the dashboard so that's
182. 7:14also important we can change the default
183. 7:17Port if you need to but I'm not going to
184. 7:19all right so let's go to the terminal
185. 7:21and while I'm inside my Jess project so
186. 7:24see this is the directory of my Jess
187. 7:27project and these are the files inside
188. 7:29it so while I'm here and while this cond
189. 7:32environment is selected so this is also
190. 7:35really important so if you don't see the
191. 7:36name of the environment here you need to
192. 7:39activate it again by running cond
193. 7:41activate and then the name of the
194. 7:43environment which in our case was Jesse
195. 7:45but I don't need to do that because it
196. 7:46is already activated while this is the
197. 7:48case simply run Jesse
198. 7:51run and that's it now we need to open
199. 7:54this address in order to open the
200. 7:56dashboard so let's go to the browser and
201. 7:58say local
202. 8:00host 9,000 it's asking for a password
203. 8:03which as I mentioned by default is
204. 8:06test all right we're in now let's go to
205. 8:09the import candles page increase this
206. 8:12and see if it can import successfully
207. 8:15and there we go it
208. 8:17can all right so we're done now but I'm
209. 8:20going to show you one more tip which
210. 8:22will be really helpful when you're doing
211. 8:24research so in the vs code if I go to
212. 8:27the strategies folder and open an
213. 8:30example strategy and try to write my
214. 8:33first code let's say ta dot you will see
215. 8:36I don't get autocomplete here because my
216. 8:39code editor doesn't know about my python
217. 8:41installation or Jess installation and I
218. 8:44want that now the vs code itself is
219. 8:45actually recommending to me to install
220. 8:47the python extension and that's what we
221. 8:49need but in case you don't see this
222. 8:51that's fine just simply go to the
223. 8:53extensions here and search the word
224. 8:55python all right so this first one which
225. 8:57is published by Microsoft is the one we
226. 8:59want click
227. 9:00install all right now that it is done if
228. 9:03I go back to my strategy again and and
229. 9:05remove this and press the dot one more
230. 9:07time still I don't get anything now this
231. 9:10time though the reason is yes the vs
232. 9:12code does recognize python now but it
233. 9:14doesn't recognize the cond environment
234. 9:16that we installed Jesse package in it so
235. 9:19for that we need to go to
236. 9:22here and select the Jesse environment
237. 9:26all right now if I remove this one more
238. 9:28time and press the dot button I can see
239. 9:30the complete list of the indicators that
240. 9:32Jesse offers so for example I can just
241. 9:35select Ballinger bands not only that if
242. 9:38I write a parenthesis you can see I will
243. 9:41get the accepted parameters of this
244. 9:44function which is really helpful because
245. 9:45I don't have to open the documentation
246. 9:47all the time to see which parameters
247. 9:49this function accepts all right that's
248. 9:50it now of course you could install all
249. 9:52types of plugins on your vs code which
250. 9:54will make things easier for example I
251. 9:56really recommend installing GitHub
252. 9:59co-pilot which at this point offers even
253. 10:01a generous free plan and it could make
254. 10:03your research posessions much faster all
255. 10:06right that's it guys I hope you guys
256. 10:07enjoyed this video thanks for watching
257. 10:09and I'll see you in the next one
