Getting started

pip install bitcoinexchangefh
bitcoinexchangefh --configuration example/configuration.yaml

Configuration

The configuration follows YAML syntax and contains two sections

• subscriptions

• handlers

Subscriptions

Subscription section specifies the exchange and instruments to subscribe.

The first key is the exchange name and then follows the exchange details,

• instruments

• number of depth (default is 5 if not specified)

For example,

subscription:
    Binance:
        instruments:
            - XRP/BTC
            - BCH/BTC
        depth
    Poloniex:
        instruments:
            - ETH/BTC
        depth: 10

Handlers

After receiving the order book or trade update, each handler is updated. For example, for SQL database handler, it is updated with the corresponding SQl statements.

For example,

handlers:
    sql: 
        connection: "sqlite://"
    

SQL handler

The following settings can be customized

ZeroMQ handler

The feed handler acts as a publisher in ZeroMQ. To receive the feed, please follow ZeroMQ instructions to start a subscriber.

The following settings can be customized

Examples

You can first create a directory .data and run the command

After a while, the data is streamed into the file .data/order_book.db. You can terminate the process and the database contains the following tables.

$ python -c "import sqlite3; print(sqlite3.connect('.data/order_book.db').execute('SELECT name from sqlite_master where type= \"table\"').fetchall())"
[('binance_ethbtc_order',), ('binance_xrpbtc_order',), ('bitmex_ethusd_order',)]
