cryptocmp 0.3.3

Python3 Wrapper for CryptoCompare public API

Python wrapper for CryptoCompare API

Description

cryptocmp provides to the CryptoCompare API in two ways:

• Straight wrappers of the API calls in cryptocmp.api package.

• A more user friendly mapping to these wrappers in object-oriented style via the following classes:

  • cryptocmp.coin.Coin represents a crypto coin.

Installation

pip3 install cryptocmp

or this can also work if you have only python3 installed (the symlink pip pointing to pip3 is created)

pip install cryptocmp

Usage

Examples

In object-oriented style:

• Get a set of all available crypto coins:

  >>> from cryptocmp.coin import Coin
  >>> Coin.all()
  {'EOSDAC', 'GAP', 'ARN', 'SERA', 'ICASH', 'STAR*', 'AC3', ...}
  

• Get a current price of BTC in USD:

  >>> from cryptocmp.coin import Coin
  >>> bitcoin = Coin('BTC')
  >>> bitcoin.price('USD')
  6318.35``
  

• Get a current price of BTC in USD, EUR and GBP at the same time (produces single API call under the hood):

  >>> from cryptocmp.coin import Coin
  >>> bitcoin = Coin('BTC')
  >>> bitcoin.price(('USD', 'EUR', 'GBP'))
  {'USD': 6316.17, 'EUR': 5540.34, 'GBP': 4977.23}``
  

• Get last 2 candles of BTC/USD daily historical data:

  >>> CoinPair('BTC', 'USD').price_history(points_num=2)
