This VagrantFile will, on "vagrant up"...
- Create a simple, minimal Precise Pangolin (12.04) Ubuntu 64 bit VM
- Customize the VM with 2 virtual CPU's and 2048MB of RAM
- Configure SSH for passwordless access (from the command-line)
- Add the required packages from the Ubuntu repo to support zipline
- Add (and compile) ta-lib
- Add the required Pip packages
When Vagrant is done, you can start hacking on zipline with:
vagrant ssh
cd /vagrant
python {some python script that uses zipline}
In the spirit of making this a disposable dev environment install
everything in site-packages.
"nosetests" and "examples/dual_moving_average.py" both succeed
after the configuration finishes.
Hopefully, this helps ease ramp up time for developing against
market data, without us distributing the data.
We do a check for the data when attempting to read the msgpack
files, if they don't exist the loader makes a web request and
retrieves and serializes the data for the user.
Provides a loader for:
- curves from data.treasury.gov
- benchmarks from Yahoo! Finance
Adds dependency of requests library in dev requirements.
Instead log to test.log in working directory when running tests.
Also, removes config file for logging module, that is no longer
used since we are now using LogBook.
