Documentation

RESTful APIs

Usage examples:

from apollox.rest_api import Client 

# Get timestamp
client = Client()
print(client.time())


client = Client(key='<api_key>', secret='<api_secret>')

# Get account information
print(client.account())

# Post a new order
params = {
    'symbol': 'BTCUSDT',
    'side': 'SELL',
    'type': 'LIMIT',
    'timeInForce': 'GTC',
    'quantity': 0.002,
    'price': 59808
}

response = client.new_order(**params)
print(response)

Please find examples folder to check for more endpoints.

Base URL

https://fapi.apollox.finance

Optional parameters

PEP8 suggests lowercase with words separated by underscores, but for this connector, the methods' optional parameters should follow their exact naming as in the API documentation.

# Recognised parameter name
response = client.query_order('BTCUSDT', orderListId=1)

# Unrecognised parameter name
response = client.query_order('BTCUSDT', order_list_id=1)

RecvWindow parameter

Additional parameter recvWindow is available for endpoints requiring signature.
It defaults to 5000 (milliseconds) and can be any value lower than 60000(milliseconds). Anything beyond the limit will result in an error response from ApolloX server.

from apollox.rest_api import Client

client = Client(key, secret)
response = client.query_order('BTCUSDT', orderId=11, recvWindow=10000)

Timeout

timeout is available to be assigned with the number of seconds you find most appropriate to wait for a server response.
Please remember the value as it won't be shown in error message no bytes have been received on the underlying socket for timeout seconds.
By default, timeout is None. Hence, requests do not time out.

from apollox.rest_api import Client

client= Client(timeout=1)

Proxy

proxy is supported

from bapollo.rest_api import Client

proxies = { 'https': 'http://1.2.3.4:8080' }

client= Client(proxies=proxies)

Response Metadata

The ApolloX API server provides weight usages in the headers of each response. You can display them by initializing the client with show_limit_usage=True:

from apollox.rest_api import Client

client = Client(show_limit_usage=True)
print(client.time())

You can also display full response metadata to help in debugging:

client = Client(show_header=True)
print(client.time())

If ClientError is received, it'll display full response meta information.

Display logs

Setting the log level to DEBUG will log the request URL, payload and response text.

Error

There are 2 types of error returned from the library:

• apollox.error.ClientError
  • This is thrown when server returns 4XX, it's an issue from client side.
  • It has 4 properties:
    • status_code - HTTP status code
    • error_code - Server's error code, e.g. -1102
    • error_message - Server's error message, e.g. Unknown order sent.
    • header - Full response header.
• apollox.error.ServerError
  • This is thrown when server returns 5XX, it's an issue from server side.

Websocket

from apollox.websocket.client.stream import WebsocketClient as Client

def message_handler(message):
    print(message)

ws_client = Client()
ws_client.start()

ws_client.mini_ticker(
    symbol='bnbusdt',
    id=1,
    callback=message_handler,
)

# Combine selected streams
ws_client.instant_subscribe(
    stream=['bnbusdt@bookTicker', 'ethusdt@bookTicker'],
    callback=message_handler,
)

ws_client.stop()

Heartbeat

Once connected, the websocket server sends a ping frame every 3 minutes and requires a response pong frame back within a 10 minutes period. This package handles the pong responses automatically.
