This repository provides an example [Allora network](https://docs.allora.network/) worker node, designed to offer price predictions. The primary objective is to demonstrate the use of a basic inference model running within a dedicated container, showcasing its integration with the Allora network infrastructure to contribute valuable inferences.
- **Worker**: The node that publishes inferences to the Allora chain.
- **Inference**: A container that conducts inferences, maintains the model state, and responds to internal inference requests via a Flask application. This node operates with a basic linear regression model for price predictions.
- **Updater**: A cron-like container designed to update the inference node's data by daily fetching the latest market information from the data provider, ensuring the model stays current with new market trends.
Note: if you are using `Binance` as the data provider, any token could be used.
If you are using Coingecko, you should add its `coin_id` in the [token_map here](https://github.com/allora-network/basic-coin-prediction-node/blob/main/updater.py#L107). Find [more info here](https://docs.coingecko.com/reference/simple-price) and the [list here](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1wTTuxXt8n9q7C4NDXqQpI3wpKu1_5bGVmP9Xz0XGSyU/edit?usp=sharing).
- TRAINING_DAYS
Must be an `int` >= 1.
Represents how many days of historical data to use.
Note: For Coingecko, Data granularity (candle's body) is automatic - [see here](https://docs.coingecko.com/reference/coins-id-ohlc). To avoid downsampling, it is recommanded to use with Coingecko:
You can easily add support for any other models by [adding it here](https://github.com/allora-network/basic-coin-prediction-node/blob/main/model.py#L133).
- Automatically create Allora keys for your worker.
- Export the needed variables from the created account to be used by the worker node, bundle them with your provided `config.json`, and pass them to the node as environment variables.
You can find the offchain worker node's address in `./worker-data/env_file` under `ALLORA_OFFCHAIN_ACCOUNT_ADDRESS`. [Add faucet funds](https://docs.allora.network/devs/get-started/setup-wallet#add-faucet-funds) to your worker's wallet before starting it.
