Gekko Architecture question

[docdrow]

Hey all,

   I'm new to node.JS -- but I'm an old-school seasoned C programmer, so I am slowly but surely figuring things out.

   I'm looking for a variable I can access from a strategy context that can tell me the asset, currency, and exchange we're working on.

   Thank you for your time.

You're looking for this.settings.asset, this.settings.currency and this.settings.exchange

In use at line 32 of this 'strategy' I did simply to write candles to a csv. https://github.com/RJPGriffin/gekko/blob..._Export.js

@Gryphon
i tryed it but with gekko --ui.
no result.
Do i have to init a var ? like this one but for settings:

var config = require ('../core/util.js').getConfig();

Novice question but what does this function do?

The best thing to do when trying to find variables is look at what parent objects are being used then inspect them with:

console.log(config);
or
console.log(util.inspect(objectname));

This way you can find just about everything that's available

Hey thanks for the post, the original version of that script looks quite interesting. Did you ever get it running in gekko?

[Gryphon]

Which script do you mean?
