NuRiver Pool on Cryptsy for NBT/USD & NBT/BTC

[Nagalim]

right right, good point, I forgot there wasn’t much volume there.

[seki]

what python version is needed for windows? 2 or 3 or 3.5?
i have 2 and i get below error:

[masterOfDisaster]

I have Python 2.7.3 and have no problems.
I run the bots on a RaspberryPi with Raspbian and not Windows, but the required Python version should be the same.

edit: erm, shouldn’t you first change into the windows directory (cd windows), put the right settings into pool.conf there and start the bot with client.bat? I’m not sure as I have never used a Windows version of such a bot so far

[mhps]

I ran the non-json version of bot on windows before and it worked. python 2.7 i think

[seki]

if i run the client.bat i get
ERROR: server missing in pool.conf

[masterOfDisaster]

Recommended settings for NBT/USD:

Deviation = 0.0001Offset = 0.0058

Recommended settings for NBT/BTC:

[Passed] NuRiver TLLP for NBT/USD & NBT/BTC on Cryptsy

Deviation = 0.0025Offset = 0.005

ERROR: server missing in pool.conf

Did you edit pool.conf?

At the end of the pool.conf there need to be either

• NBT/USD server specifics

server=45.55.43.33:3333
unit=usd
exchange=cryptsy

• or NBT/BTC server specifics

server=45.55.43.33:3334
unit=btc
exchange=cryptsy

[nmei]

@Nagalim
Two different instances in two different folders on the server:
/server-usd
/server-btc

All with their own sub folders, configs, etc

[willy]

server=45.55.43.33:3334

added to raw.nupool.net

I hope you got the problem fixed.
If not, you might want to have a look here:

Universal ALP bot collection - forked (and hopefully improved) @Nagalim edition

Update 3: The ALP bot collection now has a fully populated windows tree including a script (alp-bot-sessions.bat) to make starting the bots (after a Windows system restart) convenient. It can be found in the experimental branch of the project: https://github.com/Lamz0rNewb/alp-collection/tree/experimental Remark: you might need a program like “notepad++” or similar to edit the batch file. Standard notepad.exe doesn’t handle “CRLF” properly; with notepad the batch looks like a mess which in fac…

[seki]

thanks. it is a very strange error. it is like client.bat doesn’t recognize the server IP number
if the whole “server” argument is missing from pool.conf, i get the ERROR: pool.conf could not be read: ‘server’.
i am reviewing the python program to see IF i can find the bug!

[masterOfDisaster]

Do you mind to try this?

Lamz0rNewb/alp-collection

Don’t forget to update the pool config file after you’ve downloaded and unzipped https://github.com/Lamz0rNewb/nu-pool/archive/experimental.zip!

[seki]

this is working! thanks.
my very first bot experience

[masterOfDisaster]

this is working! thanks.

By “that” you mean the bot from here: https://github.com/Lamz0rNewb/nu-pool/tree/experimental?

[seki]

exactly, the windows version

[masterOfDisaster]

Yeah!
I bet you started the bot directly and not using the “multiple ALP bot startup script” (alp-bot-sessions.bat), right?
You’re lucky that I decided to include a windows set of the bot collection

[seki]

yes directly. and i changed only the required parameters in the conf file.
the rest are unchanged.

[masterOfDisaster]

That’s how it should be.
This section needs attention:

### REQUIRED PARAMETERS ###

# NuBits payout address
address = xxxxxx

# API key from the exchange
apikey = xxxxxx

# API secret from the exchange
apisecret = xxxxxx

The rest can remain unchanged.

I tried my best to have all

### GENERAL OPERATION PARAMETERS - DO NOT CHANGE ###

server=
unit=
exchange=

settings correct as well as the recommended deviation and offset for each bot operation.
I wouldn’t guarantee that, though.

In fact most of the settings are still like they had been in @Nagalim’s version. I adjusted some of them settings based on his recent recommendations.

The pool settings in the unix and windows section should be identical.

In case you find something that doesn’t match, feel free to tell me in the “Universal ALP bot collection - forked (and hopefully improved) @Nagalim edition"” thread or make a pull request in github

[seki]

payouts are working daily at a fixed time?
and the amount the bot reports as “balance” is accurate?

[nmei]

Payouts occur at ~ 1700 EST. Yes the balance is accurate.
You must have greater than 1 NBT to have a payout.
