QuantConnect FileSync v0.0.1

Usage: quantconnect-filesync [options] [command]

Options:
  -v, --version       output the version number
  -h, --help          output usage information

Commands:
  projects [options]  List projects from QuantConnect
  download [options]  Download all files from QuantConnect to the current directory
  upload [options]    Upload all files from current directory to QuantConnect
  watch [options]     Watch for file updates in the current directory and sync changes to QuantConnect

Configuration

All commands accept a --user option to provide the QuantConnect user ID and a --token option to provide the QuantConnect API token. However, quantconnect-filesync will also look in the ENV for QUANTCONNECT_USER_ID and QUANTCONNECT_TOKEN and use these automatically if present. You can set these in your local environment manually or optionally create a .env file with these values set:

# .env
QUANTCONNECT_USER_ID=12345
QUANTCONNECT_TOKEN=ABCDEF

For project-specific commands, quantconnect-filesync will additionally accept a --project option to provide the QuantConnect project ID. This option also has a corresponding QUANTCONNECT_PROJECT_ID ENV variable that can be set in project-specific .env files.
