krakenforwarder 0.2

Forwards trades from Kraken.com to TCP port

# krakenforwarder
This Python program listens to trades from Crypto-exchange platform Kraken (https://www.kraken.com) and forwards them on a TCP port so you can plug in anything, like a live algorithmic trader or a live analysis tool.

## Installation

```pip3 install krakenforwarder```

## Usage

Launch the forwarder in sub-process, then listen

```python
import time
from multiprocessing import Process

from forwarder import KrakenForwarder
from listener import listen

# configure forwarder
config_forwarder = {
'Pull Period': 5, # in seconds
'Asset Pair': 'XXBTZEUR', # see kraken.com API documentation for available values
'Publish Port': 5555
}

# configure listener
config_listener = {
'Hostname': 'localhost',
'Publish Port': 5555 # must be same port as in forwarder config
}

kraken_forwarder = KrakenForwarder(config_forwarder)
forward_process = Process(target=kraken_forwarder.forward)
forward_process.start()

time.sleep(1)
for msg in listen(config_listener): # infinite loop
print(msg) # do stuff

forward_process.join() # is never reached but enables debug
```

This prints trades in console:
