Bitstamp API wrapper for Python

Overview

NOTICE: THIS REPOSITORY IS NO LONGER ACTIVELY MAINTAINED

It is highly unlikely that I will respond to PRs and questions about usage.

This library was written a long time ago and not kept up to date. It may still hold value for you but it's increasingly out of date with the modern Bitstampy API and Python versions.

I heartily encourage a fork and welcome any contact about taking over ownership - find me at https://twitter.com/unwttng.

Bitstamp API wrapper for Python

Installation

Is pretty bloody easy, as long as you've got pip installed. If you haven't, take a look at the pip documentation - it's worth getting familiar with!

pip install bitstampy

Usage

> from bitstampy import api

Public calls (no API authorisation needed)

Ticker

# Ticker information
> api.ticker()
{
    'timestamp': datetime,   # Datetime

> api.order_book()
{
    'timestamp': datetime,      # Datetime
    'bids': [                   # List of bids
        {
            'price': decimal,   ## Price for bid
            'amount': decimal   ## Amount bid
        }, ...
    ],

        {
            'price': decimal,   ## Price for ask

        }, ...
    ]
}

Transactions

# Global transactions
# Parameters

##                 - int
## [limit = 100]   - Return this many transactions after the offset
##                 - int
## [sort = 'desc'] - Results are sorted by datetime
##                 - string - api.TRANSACTIONS_SORT_DESCENDING or
##                 -        - api.TRANSACTIONS_SORT_ASCENDING
> api.transactions()
[                           # List of transactions, length 'limit'
    {

        'tid': string,      ## Transaction ID
        'price': decimal,   ## Transaction price
        'amount': decimal   ## Transaction amount
    }, ...

EUR/USD Conversion Rate

# Bitstamp's Dollar to Euro conversion rate
> api.eur_usd_conversion_rate()
{
    'sell': decimal,   # Conversion rate for selling
    'buy': decimal     # Conversion rate for buying
}

Private calls (authorisation required)

Every call after this point requires you to have a working API key and secret associated with your account on Bitstampy. To get one set up, head to your Account > Security > API Access. Choose a set of permissions you'd like the key to have - the meaning of each of these should be pretty clear. After you've created a key, you need to activate it - this is done via a confirmation link in an email.

You'll get an API key and an associated secret. Note these down in your incredibly secure password manager / encrypted system / sneaky hidden notepad of choice, because Bitstampy'll only let you view the API secret for 5 minutes after you activate it ('cus security).

Each of the following API function calls takes three additional parameters - client_id, api_key and api_secret. The API key and secret are obvious, and client_id is your customer ID on Bitstampy (the numerical one). I'll include them in the function prototypes abbreviated as c, k, s.

Let's see the rest of the calls! These are the interesting ones because they get you access to do actual stuff stuff with your account.

Account Balance

# Your account balance
> api.account_balance(c, k, s)
{
    'usd_balance': decimal,     # US Dollar balance
    'btc_balance': decimal,     # Bitcoin balance
    'usd_reserved': decimal,    # US Dollars reserved in open orders
    'btc_reserved': decimal,    # Bitcoins reserved in open orders
    'usd_available': decimal,   # US Dollars available
    'btc_available': decimal,   # Bitcoins available
    'fee': decimal              # Account trading fee (in %)
}
