Is there a way to create automatically orders?

[jonthdiaz]

I would like to know if there is a way to create automatic orders, each day I have to create the orders, it is a bit of a waste of time.

Hi, currently there is no way of doing that, it's an interesting feature, let's keep this issue open an wait for some contributor to take it...

@grunch I am a developer maybe I can contribute, so I will check the steps to contribute.

The idea would be to create a next command /schedule-order command that prompts users for necessary data to create a scheduled order. Prior to submission, some validation checks will be implemented to ensure the accuracy and eligibility of the order details.

@grunch what do you think?

sounds great, in order to keep consistency I think the new command should be like /buy and /sell, right now I'm thinking something like this

/scheduleorder sell/buy <sats amount> <fiat amount> <fiat code> <payment method> [premium/discount] 

Here an example

/scheduleorder sell 0 10 eur f2f 1 

This will need to modify jobs/delete_published_orders.js to republish the order if this is a scheduled order

We also will need to add a new env var for days one order can be republished, let's call it REPUBLISH_ORDER=10, so if this variable is 10 and an order is created with /scheduleorder a new order document field, let's call it order.republish_order, will have the value 10, if the order is not taken for 10 days it will stop being republished, the value decreases on every time the bot republishes the order, but if this order is being taken this value resets to the env var REPUBLISH_ORDER value.

This way we have a method to remove orders that were created and abandoned by the maker.

What do you think?

Sounds great. I will start to clone the repo to check how was it built and I will come back to you to confirm what workflow.
