How to use

Prerequisites

To Enable database logging support you must have an active migrated database by following the database setup guide

Configuration

The gctscript configuration struct is currently:

type Config struct {
	Enabled       bool          `json:"enabled"`
	ScriptTimeout time.Duration `json:"timeout"`
	AllowImports  bool          `json:"allow_imports"`
	AutoLoad      []string      `json:"auto_load"`
	Verbose       bool          `json:"Verbose"`
}

With an example configuration being:

 "gctscript": {
  "enabled": true,
  "timeout": 600000000,
  "allow_imports": true,
  "auto_load": [],
  "debug": false
 },

Script Control

• You can autoload scripts on bot start up by placing their name in the "auto_load" config entry

  "auto_load": ["one","two"]

  This will look in your GoCryptoTrader data directory in a folder called "scripts" for files one.gct and two.gct and autoload them

• Manual control of scripts can be done via the gctcli command with support for the following:

  • Enable/Disable GCTScript:

   gctcli enablesubsystem "gctscript"
   gctcli disablesubsystem "gctscript"

  • Start/Execute:

    gctcli script execute <scriptname> <pathoverride>
    gctcli script execute "timer.gct" "~/gctscript"
  
    {
      "status": "ok",
      "data": "timer.gct executed"
    }

  • Stop:

    gctcli script stop <uuid>
    gctcli script stop 821bd73e-02b1-4974-9463-874cb49f130d
  
    {
      "status": "ok",
      "data": "821bd73e-02b1-4974-9463-874cb49f130d terminated"
    }

  • Status:

    gctcli script status 
  
    {
      "status": "ok",
      "scripts": [
        {
          "uuid": "821bd73e-02b1-4974-9463-874cb49f130d",
          "name": "timer.gct",
          "next_run": "2019-11-14 13:11:40.224919456 +1100 AEDT m=+91.062103259"
        }
      ]
    }

  • Read file:

    gctcli script read <filename>
    gctcli script read "timer.gct"
  
    {
      "status": "ok",
      "script": {
      "name": "timer.gct",
      "path": "/home/x/.gocryptotrader/scripts"
      },
      "data": "fmt := import(\"fmt\")\nt := import(\"times\")\n\nname := \"run\"\ntimer := \"5s\"\n\nload := func() {\n\tfmt.printf(\"5s %s\\n\",t.now())\n}\n\nload()\n"
    }

  • Query running script:

    gctcli script query <uuid>
    gctcli script query 821bd73e-02b1-4974-9463-874cb49f130d
    {
      "status": "ok",
      "script": {
      "UUID": "bf692e2d-fa1e-4d95-92fd-33d7634d3d77",
      "name": "timer.gct",
      "path": "/home/x/.gocryptotrader/scripts",
      "next_run": "2019-12-12 07:44:19.747572406 +1100 AEDT m=+16.782773385"
    },
    "data": "fmt := import(\"fmt\")\nt := import(\"times\")\n\nname := \"run\"\ntimer := \"5s\"\n\nload := func() {\n\tfmt.printf(\"5s %s\\n\",t.now())\n}\n\nload()\n"
    }
    load()  

  • Add script to autoload:

  gctcli script autoload add timer
  {
    "status": "success",
    "data": "script timer added to autoload list"
  }

  • Remove script from autoload:

    gctcli script autoload remove timer
    {
      "status": "success",
      "data": "script timer removed from autoload list"
    }

Scripting & Extending modules

The scripting engine utilises tengo an intro tutorial for it can be found here

Modules have been written so far linking up common exchange features including

• Orderbook
• Ticker
• Order Management
• Account information
• Withdraw funds
• Get Deposit Addresses

Extending or creating new modules:

Extending an existing module the exchange module for example is simple

• Open required module
• Add to exchangeModule map
• Define function with signature (args ...objects.Object) (ret objects.Object, err error)

Similar steps can be taken to add a new module with a few adjustments

• Open required GCT
• Add module name to GCTModules map

GCT module methods

Current supported methods added and exposed to scripts are as follows:

accountinfo
-> exchange:string

depositaddress
-> exchange:string
-> currency:string

orderbook
-> exchange:string
-> currency pair:string
-> delimiter:string
-> asset:string

ticker
-> exchange:string
-> currency pair:string
-> delimiter:string
-> asset:string

pairs
-> exchange:string
-> enabled only:bool
-> asset:string

queryorder
-> exchange:string
-> order id:string

submitorder
-> exchange:string
-> currency pair:string
-> delimiter:string
-> order type:string
-> order side:string
-> price:float64
-> amount:float64
-> client_id:string

withdrawfiat
-> exchange:string
-> currency:string
-> description:string
-> amount:float64
-> bank id:string

withdrawcrypto
-> exchange:string
-> currency:string
-> address:string
-> address tag:string
-> amount:float64
-> fee:float64
-> description:string
