Installation

At the moment, you will need to install directly from our GitHub repo.

Connecting to BTrDB

Connection to the server is handled transparently through the use of environmental variables.

Specifically, you will need to set BTRDB_ENDPOINTS and BTRDB_API_KEY which should have been provided to you by the server administrators.

We would suggest putting these values in your shell profile (such as .bashrc or .zshrc). You can set these values on Unix-like operating systems with the following commands

export BTRDB_ENDPOINTS=api.myallocation.predictivegrid.com
export BTRDB_API_KEY=FAC53575B9FB949C544091CCC
