Scripts Directory

Overview

This directory contains bash scripts and related tools designed to facilitate the setup and deployment of the Midas Technologies LLC program. The scripts automate the process of downloading, installing, and configuring the software, ensuring all dependencies are installed and the latest version of the program is fetched from the GitHub repository.

Purpose

The primary goals of the scripts in this directory are:

Dependency Installation: Ensure that all necessary dependencies for the program are installed, tailored to the user's operating system (e.g., Linux, macOS, or Windows Subsystem for Linux).
Program Setup: Download and configure the MidasV1 trading bot and its modules.
Package Management: Fetch the latest version of the program from the GitHub repository and handle version upgrades if needed.
Cross-Platform Compatibility: Provide robust support for multiple operating systems.

Features

Automated Installation: A single command to set up the entire program.
Environment Configuration: Automatically creates and activates virtual environments (for Python components).
Version Detection: Checks the installed version and updates to the latest release from GitHub if necessary.
System Checks: Verifies compatibility with the host operating system and handles OS-specific setup processes.
Clean Installation: Removes outdated versions and installs the latest package.

Usage

To use the scripts in this directory, follow these steps:

Navigate to the scripts directory:
```
cd scripts
```
Run the main setup script:
```
bash setup.sh
```
The setup script will:
- Detect your operating system.
- Install required system dependencies (e.g., python3, pip, gcc).
- Clone or update the latest version of the program from GitHub.
- Install Python dependencies using pip.
Advanced Usage:
- To install specific versions of the program:
```
bash setup.sh --version <version_number>
```
- For verbose output (debugging mode):
```
bash setup.sh --verbose
```
Check for Updates:
```
bash update.sh
```
This script checks for new releases on GitHub and updates the program while preserving user data.
