Wont take keys

slayer8197 opened this issue 4 years ago · comments

Hello I made an .env file with the following filled out with my keys but it keeps giving me this error after running liu quickstart

The Framework expects two environment variables to be set:
APCA_API_KEY_ID and APCA_API_SECRET_KEY reflecting the funded
account's API key and secret respectively.
Please set the two environment and re-run the wizard.

Thank you for the question. You need to fill two sets of keys in your .env file: *ALPACA_PAPER_API_KEY*, *ALPACA_PAPER_API_SECRET -> *these two keys grant access to your paper account where you will be doing your trading (assuming you are trading on paper) *APCA_API_KEY_ID, **APCA_API_SECRET_KEY* -> these two keys grant access to your *live *account, which is used to get data from Polygon.io Have you tried these four and it still gave you an error message?

@slayer8197 are you running this w/ a local-docker-based PostgreSQL setup by the quickinstall? Did you specify a different username/password than what was originally provided?

NOTE the default DSN in the sample shows up as DSN=postgresql://liu:liu@localhost:5400/liu -> if you change the defaults, you need to change the DSN as well.

LMK if still relevant.
