# Getting Started
Getting started with Jesse is already easy. We've also done our best to make it even easier for all operating systems.
# Required Stack
Here are the required stack:
- Python >=
3.6
- pip >=
19.3.0
- PostgreSQL >=
10
- ta-lib >=
0.4
Most of you all if not most of them installed on your machine. We provide guides on how to install them for 3 major operating systems. We also provide a docker image which might be the fastest way to get started.
# PIP Installation
First install the required dependency packages:
pip install -r https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jesse-ai/jesse/master/requirements.txt
Now install Jesse:
pip install jesse
# Upgrade with PIP
We are constantly pushing new patches. To upgrade to the latest version run:
pip install -U jesse
WARNING
Sometimes pip doesn't upgrade to the latest version on first time running above command. To make sure you're running the latest release, checkout the latest version number on PyPi, and then make sure you see that version in pip list
output.
# Create a new project
You'll need to create your own Jesse project in order to define your very own strategies.
Go to the directory you intend to create the project in and run:
jesse make-project name-of-project
This will create a new project containing only files and folders that you actually need:
├── config.py # file where you enter your database credentials, etc
├── routes.py # file where routes are defined in
├── storage # folder containing logs, chart images, etc
│ ├── charts
│ ├── genetics
│ ├── logs
│ │ └── trades
│ └── temp # directory that Jesse uses behind the scenes.
│ └── trading-view-pine-editor
└── strategies # folder where you define your strategies
├── Strategy01
│ └─ __init__.py
└── Strategy02
└─ __init__.py
