hummingbot-developer
Developer workflow skill for building and running the full Hummingbot stack from source.
Commands (run as /hummingbot-developer <command>):
Override with env vars: HUMMINGBOT_DIR, GATEWAY_DIR, HUMMINGBOT_API_DIR, or WORKSPACE.
Command: install-deps
Auto-install all missing dev dependencies. Safe to re-run — skips anything already installed.
bash scripts/install_deps.sh
Installs (only if missing):
Homebrew (macOS)
Xcode Command Line Tools (macOS — needed for Cython build_ext)
Miniconda (conda)
Node.js v22 (via nvm, Homebrew, or installs nvm)
pnpm (via npm or Homebrew)
Git
Docker Desktop (macOS — via Homebrew cask or opens download page)
Options:
--check # check only, don't install anything
--conda # only install conda
--node # only install node + nvm
--pnpm # only install pnpm
After installing, restart your terminal (or source ~/.zshrc) to apply PATH changes, then run check_env.sh to confirm.
Command: select-branches
Interactively pick a branch for each repo, checkout, and save to .dev-branches.
bash scripts/select_branches.sh
Non-interactive options:
# Use development for all
bash scripts/select_branches.sh --defaults
# Specify each branch
bash scripts/select_branches.sh \
--hummingbot development \
--gateway core-2.7 \
--api development
Branch selections are saved to $WORKSPACE/.dev-branches and automatically loaded by install_all.sh, build_all.sh, and verify_build.sh.
Command: install-all
Install all three repos in the correct order. Requires select-branches first (or pass --defaults).
bash scripts/install_all.sh
What it does (in order):
Removes solders from environment.yml (pip-only)
make install in hummingbot → conda env hummingbot
pip install solders>=0.19.0 into hummingbot env
pnpm install && pnpm build && pnpm run setup:with-defaults for gateway
conda env create for hummingbot-api
pip install -e <hummingbot_dir> --no-deps → wires local source into API env
Options:
--skip-hbot # skip hummingbot conda install
--skip-gateway # skip gateway pnpm install
--skip-api # skip hummingbot-api install
--no-local-hbot # use PyPI hummingbot in API env instead of local source
Command: build-all
Build hummingbot wheel and all Docker images in the correct order.
bash scripts/build_all.sh
Build order:
hummingbot wheel (dist/*.whl) via python setup.py bdist_wheel
Dev Environment Status
======================
[x] Prerequisites — conda, node, pnpm, docker, git OK
[x] Hummingbot repo — branch: development, env: hummingbot (installed)
[x] Gateway repo — branch: development, built: yes
[x] Hummingbot API — running at http://localhost:8000
[x] Gateway — running at http://localhost:15888
[ ] Local hummingbot — hummingbot-api NOT using local source
Next: run /hummingbot-developer setup-api-dev to wire API to local source
Adapt to actual state. If all good, show the test command.
Command: setup-hummingbot
Install Hummingbot from source on the development branch.
Step 1: Check prereqs
bash scripts/check_env.sh
Step 2: Checkout development branch
cd <HUMMINGBOT_DIR>
git fetch origin
git checkout development
git pull origin development
Step 3: Remove solders from environment.yml (pip-only package)
sed -i '''/solders/d' setup/environment.yml 2>/dev/null || sed -i '/solders/d' setup/environment.yml
Step 4: Install conda environment
make install
This creates the hummingbot conda env. Takes 3-10 minutes on first run.
Step 5: Install solders via pip (not on conda)
conda run -n hummingbot pip install "solders>=0.19.0"
Interpreting output
Output
Meaning
Next step
conda develop . succeeds
Dev install registered
Proceed
PackagesNotFoundError: solders
Forgot step 3
Run sed + reinstall
Error: Conda is not found
conda not in PATH
source ~/.zshrc or install Anaconda
build_ext errors
Missing build tools
Install Xcode CLT: xcode-select --install
After setup
[x] conda env "hummingbot" created
[x] solders installed via pip
Run hummingbot: /hummingbot-developer run-hummingbot
Build image: /hummingbot-developer build-hummingbot
Command: run-hummingbot
Run the Hummingbot CLI from source.
cd <HUMMINGBOT_DIR>
conda activate hummingbot
./bin/hummingbot_quickstart.py
Or via make:
cd <HUMMINGBOT_DIR>
make run
Note: This opens the interactive Hummingbot CLI. Use exit to quit.
To run with a specific config:
make run ARGS="--config-file-name conf_pure_mm_1.yml"
Command: build-hummingbot
Build a Hummingbot wheel and/or Docker image from source.
Build wheel (for local pip installs)
cd <HUMMINGBOT_DIR>
conda activate hummingbot
pip install build wheel # if not already installed
python -m build --wheel --no-isolation
Wheel is output to dist/hummingbot-*.whl.
Important: The wheel must be built with Python 3.12 to match hummingbot-api's environment.
Hummingbot API auto-connects at http://localhost:15888
Verify it's running:
curl http://localhost:15888/
Watch logs for startup sequence:
Gateway listening on port 15888
Solana mainnet-beta initialized
...
Configure custom RPC (recommended to avoid rate limits):
# After gateway is running, update RPC via API
curl -X POST http://localhost:15888/network/config \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"chain": "solana", "network": "mainnet-beta", "nodeURL": "https://your-rpc.com"}'
docker tag hummingbot/gateway:dev hummingbot/gateway:development
Verify image:
docker run --rm hummingbot/gateway:dev node -e "console.log('OK')"
Command: setup-api-dev
Configure Hummingbot API to use a local Hummingbot source build instead of the PyPI package.
This lets you make changes to Hummingbot and immediately test them via the API without rebuilding Docker images.
Step 1: Install hummingbot-api conda environment
cd <HUMMINGBOT_API_DIR>
make install
This creates the hummingbot-api conda env with the PyPI version of hummingbot.
Step 2: Install local Hummingbot into hummingbot-api env
Option A — Editable install (recommended for active development):
conda run -n hummingbot-api pip install -e <HUMMINGBOT_DIR> --no-deps
Changes to hummingbot source are reflected immediately (no reinstall needed).
Option B — Wheel install (for testing a specific build):
# First build the wheelcd <HUMMINGBOT_DIR> && conda run -n hummingbot python setup.py bdist_wheel
# Install into hummingbot-api env
conda run -n hummingbot-api pip install <HUMMINGBOT_DIR>/dist/hummingbot-*.whl --force-reinstall --no-deps
Step 3: Verify local version is active
conda run -n hummingbot-api python -c "import hummingbot; print(hummingbot.__file__)"
Should print a path inside <HUMMINGBOT_DIR>, not site-packages.
Step 4: Install solders
conda run -n hummingbot-api pip install "solders>=0.19.0"
Interpreting output
Output
Meaning
Path inside your hummingbot dir
✅ Local source active
Path inside anaconda3/.../site-packages
❌ Still using PyPI version
ImportError: No module named hummingbot
pip install failed — retry
Command: run-api-dev
Run Hummingbot API from source with hot-reload, using local Hummingbot.
Step 1: Start infrastructure (postgres + EMQX via Docker)
cd <HUMMINGBOT_API_DIR>
docker compose up emqx postgres -d
Verify they're healthy:
docker compose ps
Step 2: Run the API with uvicorn hot-reload
cd <HUMMINGBOT_API_DIR>
conda run --no-capture-output -n hummingbot-api uvicorn main:app --reload
Or via make:
make run
API is available at http://localhost:8000
Swagger UI at http://localhost:8000/docs
What hot-reload means: Changes to *.py files in hummingbot-api are applied immediately. Changes to hummingbot source (editable install) are also picked up on reload.
cd <HUMMINGBOT_API_DIR>
# Copy wheel to API directorycp <HUMMINGBOT_DIR>/dist/hummingbot-*-cp312-*-linux_*.whl .
# Update environment.docker.yml with wheel filename# Then build using Dockerfile.dev
docker build -f Dockerfile.dev -t hummingbot/hummingbot-api:dev .
Step 3: Deploy with docker-compose.dev.yml
cd <HUMMINGBOT_API_DIR>
docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up -d
Step 4: Verify development features
# Check lp_executor is available (only in development hummingbot)
curl -s -u admin:admin http://localhost:8000/executors/types/available | grep lp_executor
Deploying Bots with Custom Images
When deploying bots via the API, specify which hummingbot Docker image to use.

Testing a Hummingbot Change
