Description

bhodl-calculator is a simple webapp that use Coingekko API to calculate the current value of a previous investment in Bitcoin. You can try it with my live demo. Note that the API can only handle 100 requests/minutes, so the best is to run it youself.

Setup

Clone bhodl-calculator :

~/$ git clone https://github.com/bhodl/bhodl-calculator.git

Setup a virtual environnement, activate it, and install dependancy like this :

~/$ cd bhodl-calculator
~/bhodl-calculator/$ virtualenv -p python3 .env
~/bhodl-calculator/$ source .env/bin/activate
(.env)~/bhodl-calculator/$ pip install -r requirements.txt

Now run the app like this :

(.env)~/bhodl-calculator/$ python app.py

You shoud now see something like this in the terminal window :
