## Quick Start

Refer to the [documentation](https://chinchalinchin.github.io/scrilla/) for more detailed information on installation and usage.

## Installation

### PyPi Distribution

Install the package with the <b>Python</b> package manager,

```shell
pip install scrilla
``` 

This will install a command line interface on your path under the name `scrilla`. Confirm your installation with with the `version` command,

```shell
scrilla version
```

If you are on Windows, you may need to add your Python scripts bin to the $PATH. To keep the installation as minimal as possible, the base package does not include the GUI libraries. You can install the optional GUI dependency with,

```shell
pip install scrilla[gui]
```

Note, the GUI has a different CLI entrypoint, namely,

```shell
scrilla-gui
```

### Source

If you prefer, you can build from source. `git clone` the [repository](https://github.com/chinchalinchin/scrilla) and then from the root directory install the project dependencies and build the library,

```shell
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
python3 -m build
```

`cd` into the generated <i>/dist/</i>  to manually install the packaged code,

```
pip install scrilla-<major>.<minor>.<micro>-py3-none-any.whl
```

## Configuration

In order to use this application, you will need to register for API keys with [AlphaVantage](https://www.alphavantage.co), [IEX](https://iexcloud.io/) and [Quandl](https://www.quandl.com/). The program will need to be made aware of these keys somehow. The best option is storing these credentials in environment variables. You can add the following lines to your <i>.bashrc</i> profile or corresponding configuration file for whatever shell you are using,

```shell
export ALPHA_VANTAGE_KEY=<key goes here>
export QUANDL_KEY=<key goes here>
export IEX_KEY=<key goes here>
```

You can also invoke the CLI function `store` to store the credentials in the local installation <i>/data/common/</i> directory. To do so,

```shell
scrilla store -key <key> -value <value>
```

where `<key>` is one of the values: **ALPHA_VANTAGE_KEY**, **QUANDL_KEY** or **IEX_KEY**. `<value>` is the corresponding key itself given to you after registration. Obviously, `<value>` is case-sensitive

Keep in mind if using this method to store the API keys, the keys will be stored unencrypted in the local installation's <i>/data/common/</i> directory. The recommended method is storing the credentials in the environment. 

If no API keys are found through either of these methods, the application will not function properly.

## Usage

The following command will optimize a portfolio of consisting of *ALLY*, *BX*, *GLD*, *BTC* and *ETH* over the specified date range and save the result to a JSON file.

```shell
scrilla optimize-portfolio ALLY BX GLD BTC ETH \
    -start <YYYY-MM-DD> \
    -end <YYYY-MM-DD> \
    -save <absolute path to json file> 
```

See [usage](https://chinchalinchin.github.io/scrilla/USAGE.html) for more information.
