Get RAI

Buy RAI from Uniswap v2 or open a SAFE and generate it.

Clone

git clone https://github.com/reflexer-labs/auction-keeper.git
cd auction-keeper
git submodule update --init --recursive

Install

This creates a virtual environment and installs all the keeper dependencies:

./install.sh

1) Start virtualenv

source _virtualenv/bin/activate

2) Create a model file

Pix a system coin/protocol token price and paste the following code into debt_model.sh:

#!/usr/bin/env bash
while true; do
  echo "{\"price\": \"325.0\"}"
  sleep 120                   
done

Then:

chmod +x debt_model.sh

3) Create the keeper run file

Create a file called run_auction_keeper.sh and paste the following code in it:

#!/bin/bash
bin/auction-keeper \
     --type debt \
     --model debt_model.sh \
     --rpc-uri <ETH_RPC_URL> \
     --eth-from <KEEPER_ADDRESS> \
     --eth-key key_file=<KEYSTORE_FILE>

Then, substitute the following variables:

ETH_RPC_URL - the URL of ethereum RPC connection

KEEPER_ADDRESS - the keeper's address. It should be in checksummed format (not lowercase).

KEYSTORE_FILE - your Ethereum UTC JSON keystore filename

For more information about this keystore format and how to generate them, check:

• ​Ethereum UTC / JSON Wallet Encryption​

• ​keythereum​

Then:

chmod +x run_auction_keeper.sh

4) Start the keeper and enter your keystore file password

./run_auction_keeper.sh

$ ./run_auction_keeper.sh
Password for /keystore/key.json:
