CoinbasePro Recurring Buy Save
A Python app to automate buying cryptocurrency on the Coinbase Pro exchange. Runs in a Docker container for convenience.
Coinbase Pro Recurring Buy Bot
Have you ever wanted to automate recurring purchases via Coinbase Pro instead of Coinbase? I did too, so I built a Bot to do it! The Bot can be setup to make recurring purchases weekly or every X number of days/seconds. Funds can be automatically added from your default funding account in Coinbase Pro or from Coinbase. Notifications about buys and funding can be sent to a Discord channel via webhook.
Built in Python and includes the following modules:
CoinbasePro by Alex Contryman
Discord by Rapptz
Schedule by Dan Bader
Coinbase Pro Recurring Buy Config
The config.json file is where all settings come from. The Bot checks for the config file at /config/config.json when it starts up.
Example config file available here: https://github.com/queball99/CoinbasePro-Recurring-Buy/blob/main/config.example.json
To get started copy the config.example.json file to a folder that will be mapped to a Docker volume. Rename the file to config.json and edit the settings based on your needs. See Configuration Options below.
Creating a Coinbase Pro API Key
Creating a Discord Webhook
The Coinbase Pro API Key will need a minimum of 'View' and 'Trade' permissions. If you want to enable Auto-Funding you will also need to grant it 'Transfer' permissions.
