Welcome to ritpytrading’s documentation!¶
ritpytrading¶
RIT-trading-python¶
Python trading module for the Rotman Interactive Trader trading software. PyPI page.
Full documentation available here.
Prerequisites¶
Python version 3
The Rotman Interactive Trading Client which can only be operated in a Windows system. However, development of the PyPI ritpytrading package can be in done in Linux/BSD envrionment as well.
The full documentation for the Rotman Interactive Trader Client REST API can be found at Swaggerhub. The documentation is also present in a JSON format in the swagger_client_generated folder.
Installing¶
RIT Client Software¶
The RIT Client for Windows system can be downloaded at http://rit.rotman.utoronto.ca/software.asp.
Instructions for setting up an RIT demonstration client account for the Liability Trading 3 case file can be found at RIT’s website at http://rit.rotman.utoronto.ca/demo.asp.
Virtual environment packages with virtualenv
or anaconda
should
be used for both Windows and Linux/BSD based systems.
Windows¶
Initialize the repository with git. Detailed instructions to download git for windows can be found at atlassian. The repository can then be initialized with git using:
$ git clone https://github.com/SamSamhuns/RIT-trading-python
Two options are available after this:
- Anaconda is recommended for Windows system. Set up up a virtual conda environment first.
Then open the anaconda prompt and use the command
conda install --yes --file requirements.txt
to install all modules from requirements.txt. - Or Install
python
and add it to yourPATH
system variable. Then install thepip
package if not installed already also adding it to thePATH
system variable. Then run the following commands.
$ pip install virtualenv
$ virtualenv venv
$ venv\Scripts\activate
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
Linux/BSD¶
After cloning the repository, install the required python packages using pip.
$ git clone https://github.com/SamSamhuns/RIT-trading-python
$ pip install virtualenv
$ virtualenv venv
$ source venv/bin/activate
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
Building dists and running tests using makefile¶
For Windows, different options are available for using makefile. GnuWin’s make
provides a native port for Windows (without requiring a full runtime environment like Cygwin).
After installing GnuWin, add C:\Program Files (x86)\GnuWin32\bin
to your system PATH
variable to run makefiles from any directory.
- For Windows, run makefile commands with
make -f Makefile.win <directive>
. Examplemake -f Makefile.win help
- For Linux/BSD, run makefile commands with
make <drective>
.
Run the following command to get a list of all Makefile command options.
$ make help
To run tests
$ make test
$ make test-all
To ensure the README.rst will be rendered in PyPI [might be outdated. Check twine check below]
$ python setup.py check --restructuredtext
To report any problems rendering your README. If your markup renders fine, the command will output Checking distribution FILENAME: Passed. To run the check on sdist and wheel.
$ twine check dist/*
To build the source and wheel package.
$ make build
Running tests with the python unittest module¶
Once python has been added to the PATH
system variable in Windows,
the code for running the scripts on Windows and Linux/BSD based systems
are the same.
From the main directory, run:
$ python -m unittest
If no tests are run from the command above, run the verbose mode.
Verbose mode
$ python -m unittest discover -v
Usage (Only on Windows)¶
IMPORTANT: The RIT Trading client must also be running to make sure the REST RIT API Client requests can be made. In each script your RIT Client API key must be entered and the requests module be imported to make API calls.
To test out the ritpytrading package, install using pip inside a virtual environment:
$ pip install ritpytrading
Examples scripts are present inside the examples
folder. Documentation for usage available here.

Get Started!¶
Ready to contribute? Here’s how to set up ritpytrading for local development.
Fork the ritpytrading repo on GitHub.
Clone your fork locally:
$ git clone git@github.com:your_name_here/ritpytrading.git
Install your local copy into a virtualenv. Assuming you have virtualenvwrapper installed, this is how you set up your fork for local development:
$ mkvirtualenv ritpytrading $ cd ritpytrading/ $ python setup.py develop
Create a branch for local development:
$ git checkout -b name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature
Now you can make your changes locally.
When you’re done making changes, check that your changes pass flake8 and the tests, including testing other Python versions with tox:
$ flake8 ritpytrading tests $ python setup.py test or py.test $ tox
To get flake8 and tox, just pip install them into your virtualenv.
Commit your changes and push your branch to GitHub:
$ git add . $ git commit -m "Your detailed description of your changes." $ git push origin name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature
Submit a pull request through the GitHub website.
Pull Request Guidelines¶
Before you submit a pull request, check that it meets these guidelines:
- The pull request should include tests.
- If the pull request adds functionality, the docs should be updated. Put your new functionality into a function with a docstring, and add the feature to the list in README.rst.
- The pull request should work for Python 3.4, 3.5 and 3.6, and for PyPy. Check https://travis-ci.org/SamSamhuns/ritpytrading/pull_requests and make sure that the tests pass for all supported Python versions.
Deploying¶
A reminder for the maintainers on how to deploy. Make sure all your changes are committed (including an entry in HISTORY.rst). Then run:
$ bumpversion patch # possible: major / minor / patch
$ git push
$ git push --tags
Travis will then deploy to PyPI if tests pass.
