# Using FreqTrade with Docker
## Install Docker
Start by downloading and installing Docker CE for your platform:
* [Mac](https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-mac/install/)
* [Windows](https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-windows/install/)
* [Linux](https://docs.docker.com/install/)
Once you have Docker installed, simply create the config file (e.g. `config.json`) and run the image for `freqtrade` as explained below.
## Download the official FreqTrade docker image
Pull the image from docker hub.
Branches / tags available can be checked out on [Dockerhub](https://hub.docker.com/r/freqtradeorg/freqtrade/tags/).
```bash
docker pull freqtradeorg/freqtrade:develop
# Optionally tag the repository so the run-commands remain shorter
docker tag freqtradeorg/freqtrade:develop freqtrade
```
To update the image, simply run the above commands again and restart your running container.
Should you require additional libraries, please [build the image yourself](#build-your-own-docker-image).
### Prepare the configuration files
Even though you will use docker, you'll still need some files from the github repository.
#### Clone the git repository
Linux/Mac/Windows with WSL
```bash
git clone https://github.com/freqtrade/freqtrade.git
```
Windows with docker
```bash
git clone --config core.autocrlf=input https://github.com/freqtrade/freqtrade.git
```
#### Copy `config.json.example` to `config.json`
```bash
cd freqtrade
cp -n config.json.example config.json
```
> To understand the configuration options, please refer to the [Bot Configuration](configuration.md) page.
#### Create your database file
Production
```bash
touch tradesv3.sqlite
````
Dry-Run
```bash
touch tradesv3.dryrun.sqlite
```
!!! Note
Make sure to use the path to this file when starting the bot in docker.
### Build your own Docker image
Best start by pulling the official docker image from dockerhub as explained [here](#download-the-official-docker-image) to speed up building.
To add additional libaries to your docker image, best check out [Dockerfile.technical](https://github.com/freqtrade/freqtrade/blob/develop/Dockerfile.technical) which adds the [technical](https://github.com/freqtrade/technical) module to the image.
```bash
docker build -t freqtrade -f Dockerfile.technical .
```
If you are developing using Docker, use `Dockerfile.develop` to build a dev Docker image, which will also set up develop dependencies:
```bash
docker build -f Dockerfile.develop -t freqtrade-dev .
```
!!! Note
For security reasons, your configuration file will not be included in the image, you will need to bind mount it. It is also advised to bind mount an SQLite database file (see the "5. Run a restartable docker image" section) to keep it between updates.
#### Verify the Docker image
After the build process you can verify that the image was created with:
```bash
docker images
```
The output should contain the freqtrade image.
### Run the Docker image
You can run a one-off container that is immediately deleted upon exiting with the following command (`config.json` must be in the current working directory):
```bash
docker run --rm -v `pwd`/config.json:/freqtrade/config.json -it freqtrade
```
!!! Warning
In this example, the database will be created inside the docker instance and will be lost when you will refresh your image.
#### Adjust timezone
By default, the container will use UTC timezone.
Should you find this irritating please add the following to your docker commands:
##### Linux
``` bash
-v /etc/timezone:/etc/timezone:ro
# Complete command:
docker run --rm -v /etc/timezone:/etc/timezone:ro -v `pwd`/config.json:/freqtrade/config.json -it freqtrade
```
##### MacOS
There is known issue in OSX Docker versions after 17.09.1, whereby `/etc/localtime` cannot be shared causing Docker to not start. A work-around for this is to start with the following cmd.
```bash
docker run --rm -e TZ=`ls -la /etc/localtime | cut -d/ -f8-9` -v `pwd`/config.json:/freqtrade/config.json -it freqtrade
```
More information on this docker issue and work-around can be read [here](https://github.com/docker/for-mac/issues/2396).
### Run a restartable docker image
To run a restartable instance in the background (feel free to place your configuration and database files wherever it feels comfortable on your filesystem).
#### Move your config file and database
The following will assume that you place your configuration / database files to `~/.freqtrade`, which is a hidden folder in your home directory. Feel free to use a different folder and replace the folder in the upcomming commands.
```bash
mkdir ~/.freqtrade
mv config.json ~/.freqtrade
mv tradesv3.sqlite ~/.freqtrade
```
#### Run the docker image
```bash
docker run -d \
--name freqtrade \
-v ~/.freqtrade/config.json:/freqtrade/config.json \
-v ~/.freqtrade/user_data/:/freqtrade/user_data \
-v ~/.freqtrade/tradesv3.sqlite:/freqtrade/tradesv3.sqlite \
freqtrade --db-url sqlite:///tradesv3.sqlite --strategy MyAwesomeStrategy
```
!!! Note
db-url defaults to `sqlite:///tradesv3.sqlite` but it defaults to `sqlite://` if `dry_run=True` is being used.
To override this behaviour use a custom db-url value: i.e.: `--db-url sqlite:///tradesv3.dryrun.sqlite`
!!! Note
All available command line arguments can be added to the end of the `docker run` command.
### Monitor your Docker instance
You can use the following commands to monitor and manage your container:
```bash
docker logs freqtrade
docker logs -f freqtrade
docker restart freqtrade
docker stop freqtrade
docker start freqtrade
```
For more information on how to operate Docker, please refer to the [official Docker documentation](https://docs.docker.com/).
!!! Note
You do not need to rebuild the image for configuration changes, it will suffice to edit `config.json` and restart the container.
### Backtest with docker
The following assumes that the download/setup of the docker image have been completed successfully.
Also, backtest-data should be available at `~/.freqtrade/user_data/`.
```bash
docker run -d \
--name freqtrade \
-v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro \
-v ~/.freqtrade/config.json:/freqtrade/config.json \
-v ~/.freqtrade/tradesv3.sqlite:/freqtrade/tradesv3.sqlite \
-v ~/.freqtrade/user_data/:/freqtrade/user_data/ \
freqtrade --strategy AwsomelyProfitableStrategy backtesting
```
Head over to the [Backtesting Documentation](backtesting.md) for more details.
!!! Note
Additional parameters can be appended after the image name (`freqtrade` in the above example).

## Automatic Installation - Docker
Start by downloading Docker for your platform:
* [Mac](https://www.docker.com/products/docker#/mac)
* [Windows](https://www.docker.com/products/docker#/windows)
* [Linux](https://www.docker.com/products/docker#/linux)
Once you have Docker installed, simply create the config file (e.g. `config.json`) and then create a Docker image for `freqtrade` using the Dockerfile in this repo.
### 1. Prepare the Bot
**1.1. Clone the git repository**
Linux/Mac/Windows with WSL
```bash
git clone https://github.com/freqtrade/freqtrade.git
```
Windows with docker
```bash
git clone --config core.autocrlf=input https://github.com/freqtrade/freqtrade.git
```
**1.2. (Optional) Checkout the develop branch**
```bash
git checkout develop
```
**1.3. Go into the new directory**
```bash
cd freqtrade
```
**1.4. Copy `config.json.example` to `config.json`**
```bash
cp -n config.json.example config.json
```
> To edit the config please refer to the [Bot Configuration](configuration.md) page.
**1.5. Create your database file *(optional - the bot will create it if it is missing)**
Production
```bash
touch tradesv3.sqlite
````
Dry-Run
```bash
touch tradesv3.dryrun.sqlite
```
### 2. Download or build the docker image
Either use the prebuilt image from docker hub - or build the image yourself if you would like more control on which version is used.
Branches / tags available can be checked out on [Dockerhub](https://hub.docker.com/r/freqtradeorg/freqtrade/tags/).
**2.1. Download the docker image**
Pull the image from docker hub and (optionally) change the name of the image
```bash
docker pull freqtradeorg/freqtrade:develop
# Optionally tag the repository so the run-commands remain shorter
docker tag freqtradeorg/freqtrade:develop freqtrade
```
To update the image, simply run the above commands again and restart your running container.
**2.2. Build the Docker image**
```bash
cd freqtrade
docker build -t freqtrade .
```
If you are developing using Docker, use `Dockerfile.develop` to build a dev Docker image, which will also set up develop dependencies:
```bash
docker build -f ./Dockerfile.develop -t freqtrade-dev .
```
For security reasons, your configuration file will not be included in the image, you will need to bind mount it. It is also advised to bind mount an SQLite database file (see the "5. Run a restartable docker image" section) to keep it between updates.
### 3. Verify the Docker image
After the build process you can verify that the image was created with:
```bash
docker images
```
### 4. Run the Docker image
You can run a one-off container that is immediately deleted upon exiting with the following command (`config.json` must be in the current working directory):
```bash
docker run --rm -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro -v `pwd`/config.json:/freqtrade/config.json -it freqtrade
```
There is known issue in OSX Docker versions after 17.09.1, whereby /etc/localtime cannot be shared causing Docker to not start. A work-around for this is to start with the following cmd.

In this example, the database will be created inside the docker instance and will be lost when you will refresh your image.
### 5. Run a restartable docker image
To run a restartable instance in the background (feel free to place your configuration and database files wherever it feels comfortable on your filesystem).
**5.1. Move your config file and database**
```bash
mkdir ~/.freqtrade
mv config.json ~/.freqtrade
mv tradesv3.sqlite ~/.freqtrade
```
**5.2. Run the docker image**
```bash
docker run -d \
--name freqtrade \
-v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro \
-v ~/.freqtrade/config.json:/freqtrade/config.json \
-v ~/.freqtrade/user_data/:/freqtrade/user_data \
-v ~/.freqtrade/tradesv3.sqlite:/freqtrade/tradesv3.sqlite \
freqtrade --db-url sqlite:///tradesv3.sqlite --strategy MyAwesomeStrategy
```
!!! Note
db-url defaults to `sqlite:///tradesv3.sqlite` but it defaults to `sqlite://` if `dry_run=True` is being used.

### 6. Monitor your Docker instance
You can then use the following commands to monitor and manage your container:
```bash
docker logs freqtrade
docker logs -f freqtrade
docker restart freqtrade
docker stop freqtrade
docker start freqtrade
```
