CLI to download k-line (candlestick/OHLC) data from Binance API

Binance Downloader

Python tool to download Binance Candlestick (k-line) data from REST API

Originally forked from bullsignals/binance-downloader, that project does not seem to be maintained any longer and I wanted to actually make use of this project and allow others to contribute. At this point, I have re-written almost all the code from scratch, but would like to thank the original authors for their ideas that got me started.

Installation

Prerequisites

You will need Poetry installed in order to install this package and run from the command line. Poetry is a Python package and dependency manager that makes installation and distribution really easy. Installation instructions can be found here for macOS/Linux/Windows

• Verify Poetry installation

$ poetry --version
Poetry 0.12.10

Download and install

Clone the repository

$ git clone https://github.com/anson-vandoren/binance-downloader.git
$ cd binance-downloader

Activate your virtual environment

Poetry will try to automatically enable a virtual environment for you if it detects you are not already using one.

If you already use virtualenvwrapper (or similar), go ahead and make (or switch to) your working environment beforehand:

$ mkvirtualenv binance-downloader

or

$ workon binance-downloader

Install dependencies

$ poetry install
