traderepublic-sync 0.3.1

Unofficial Trade Republic sync library: WAF acquisition, login + 2FA, WebSocket data fetching, transaction parsing.

traderepublic-sync

Unofficial Python client for Trade Republic. Handles AWS WAF token acquisition, phone+PIN login with 2FA, WebSocket data fetching, and parsing of the timeline-detail responses into structured Python dicts.

⚠️ Unofficial. Trade Republic does not publish an API. This library reverse-engineers the web app's WebSocket protocol; it can break at any time and is not endorsed by Trade Republic. Use at your own risk.

Install

# Base install (websockets + requests only)
pip install -e .

# With Playwright for WAF token acquisition (recommended)
pip install -e .[playwright]
playwright install chromium

# Or with Selenium
pip install -e .[selenium]

Python ≥ 3.11.

Quickstart

import asyncio
from traderepublic_sync import TRClient

client = TRClient(locale="fr")

# 1. WAF token (uses headless browser)
client.acquire_waf_token("playwright")

# 2. Login - Trade Republic will push a 2FA prompt to your phone
login = client.login(phone_number="[phone]", pin="1234")
print(f"2FA code requested. You have {login['countdown']}s.")

# Optional: ask for SMS instead of the in-app push
# client.request_sms(login["process_id"])

# 3. Verify 2FA (read the code from wherever the user enters it)
code = input("2FA code: ")
session_token = client.verify_2fa(login["process_id"], code)

# 4. Fetch data
result = asyncio.run(client.fetch_transactions(session_token))
print(f"{len(result['transactions'])} transactions, "
      f"{len(result['raw_items'])} raw items")

balance = asyncio.run(client.fetch_cash_balance(session_token))
print("Cash:", balance)

Persisting session state

ConnectionState is a plain dataclass - pickle it, JSON-encode it, or store it in your own DB. The WAF token + session token can be reused across processes until they expire (typically a few hours).

from dataclasses import asdict
import json
from traderepublic_sync import ConnectionState, TRClient

# Save after a successful login
state = ConnectionState(
    phone_number="[phone]",
    pin="1234",
    waf_token=client.waf_token,
    device_info=client.device_info,
    session_token=session_token,
    auth_status="authenticated",
)
with open("tr_state.json", "w") as f:
    json.dump(asdict(state), f)

# Restore later
with open("tr_state.json") as f:
    state = ConnectionState(**json.load(f))

client = TRClient(waf_token=state.waf_token, device_info=state.device_info)
asyncio.run(client.fetch_transactions(state.session_token))

Dual-legged transactions (optional)

The mapping layer shapes TR events into a double-entry transaction schema (PURCHASE / SELL / DIVIDEND / TRANSFER / …) with explicit credit / debit / fee / tax legs. It lives in a separate submodule so generic users can ignore it:

from traderepublic_sync.dual_legged import (
    build_dual_legged_transaction,
    deduplicate_pea,
    EVENT_TYPE_MAP,
)

# Given a raw TR item + its parsed detail (use parse_detail_sections from
# the main package), produce a dual-legged transaction dict:
tx = build_dual_legged_transaction(raw_item, parsed_detail)

fetch_transactions() already applies this mapping and returns both forms under "transactions" (dual-legged) and "raw_items" (raw TR items with the parsed detail attached as _detail / _detail_raw).

Live subscriptions (TRSession)

TRClient exposes one-shot helpers (fetch_transactions, fetch_cash_balance, fetch_ticker, …) that open a WebSocket, send a single request, and close. For streaming use cases — live ticker, live portfolio updates, instrument search — open a long-lived session via client.open_session().

import asyncio
from traderepublic_sync import TRClient

client = TRClient(waf_token=..., device_info=...)
# ...login + verify_2fa as in the quickstart...

async def watch_apple():
    async with client.open_session(session_token) as session:
        def on_tick(data):
            last = (data.get("last") or {}).get("price")
            print(f"AAPL = {last}")

        sub_id = await session.subscribe_ticker("US0378331005", on_tick)
        await asyncio.sleep(60)            # stream for a minute
        await session.unsubscribe(sub_id)  # optional — __aexit__ also cleans up

asyncio.run(watch_apple())

Convenience subscriptions

Method	What it streams
subscribe_ticker(isin, cb)	Live price (last, bid, ask, open, pre) — resolves the home exchange for you
subscribe_portfolio(sec_acc_no, cb)	Live positions list (quantity + cost basis)
subscribe_cash(cash_acc_no, cb)	Available cash balance
subscribe_transactions(cash_acc_no, cb)	Timeline transactions as they appear

All callbacks may be plain functions or coroutines. They receive the parsed JSON payload of each incoming frame; errors in the callback are logged and swallowed so one bad frame doesn't kill the stream.

Searching for instruments (securities)

search_instrument(query, instrument_type=None, limit=20) queries TR's neonSearch endpoint — the same one the web app uses for the asset picker. It accepts a free-text query (name, ticker, ISIN fragment) and returns the raw result list.

async with client.open_session(session_token) as session:
    # By asset class
    btc     = await session.search_instrument("bitcoin", instrument_type="crypto")
    apple   = await session.search_instrument("apple",   instrument_type="stock")
    msci    = await session.search_instrument("MSCI World", instrument_type="etf")

    # Without a type filter, results span all asset classes
    mixed   = await session.search_instrument("tesla", limit=5)

    # By ISIN (or fragment)
    by_isin = await session.search_instrument("US0378331005")

Parameters

Name	Type	Notes
query	str	Free-text search — name, ticker, partial ISIN
instrument_type	str | None	One of "crypto", "stock", "etf", "bond", "derivative", "fund" — or None to search everything
limit	int	Max results (default 20)

Result shape — each item is a raw TR dict, typically including:

{
    "isin": "XF000BTC0017",         # ISIN or pseudo-ISIN for crypto
    "name": "Bitcoin",
    "type": "crypto",
    "exchanges": [{"slug": "BTC", "name": "Bitcoin"}],
    # ...additional fields vary by asset class
}

Use the returned isin to feed subscribe_ticker(), fetch_ticker(), or any other instrument-keyed API on the client.

Lower-level primitives

If a TR subscription type isn't covered by the convenience helpers, use subscribe() / request() directly:

async with client.open_session(session_token) as session:
    # One-shot: subscribe, take the first frame, unsubscribe.
    data = await session.request("availableCash", {"id": cash_acc_no})

    # Streaming: keep receiving until you unsubscribe.
    sub_id = await session.subscribe(
        "compactPortfolio",
        {"secAccNo": sec_acc_no},
        callback=lambda d: print(d["positions"]),
    )

The WebSocket token is injected for you; you don't need to pass it in params.

Downloading files listed in transactions

The key points:

• Cookie: tr_session=<session_token> — this is how TR authenticates document downloads (same mechanism as login).
• Headers: reuse client._headers() for x-aws-waf-token and x-tr-device-info — TR's WAF will reject requests without a valid token.
• The document URLs are absolute https:// URLs already, no base URL manipulation needed.

Examples:

import requests

def download_tr_documents(client, session_token: str, transactions: list, output_dir: str = "."):
    """Download all PDF documents from a list of dual-legged transactions."""
    import os

    headers = client._headers()  # includes x-aws-waf-token + x-tr-device-info
    cookies = {"tr_session": session_token}

    for tx in transactions:
        for doc in tx.get("document_urls", []):
            url = doc["url"]
            title = doc["title"].replace("/", "-")
            tr_id = tx.get("tr_id", "unknown")
            filename = f"{tx['date'][:10]}_{tr_id}_{title}.pdf"
            filepath = os.path.join(output_dir, filename)

            resp = requests.get(url, headers=headers, cookies=cookies)
            resp.raise_for_status()

            with open(filepath, "wb") as f:
                f.write(resp.content)
            print(f"Saved: {filepath}")

result = asyncio.run(client.fetch_transactions(session_token))
download_tr_documents(client, session_token, result["transactions"], output_dir="/tmp/tr_docs")

Or if you want to pull from raw_items instead (same document URLs, accessible before the dual-legged mapping):

for item in result["raw_items"]:
    for doc in item["_detail"].get("document_urls", []):
        ...

Pure parsing utilities

These are dependency-free helpers you can use without authenticating:

from traderepublic_sync import (
    parse_currency_amount,                # "1 000,00 EUR" → 1000.0
    parse_detail_sections,     # timelineDetailV2 dict → structured dict
    extract_isin_from_icon,    # "logos/FR0011550672/v2" → "FR0011550672"
)

Reporting bugs

The TR API is undocumented and locale-sensitive — the most useful thing you can attach to a bug report is a redacted copy of your own dump, so we can reproduce the parsing path that misbehaved. Two scripts make this safe:

1. Dump everything with examples/smoke_fetch_all.py — writes accounts.json, assets.json, transactions_raw.json and transactions_dl.json under examples/out/. The raw file contains the full TR responses (_detail + _detail_raw) which is what we need for parser fixes.

2. Anonymize the whole folder with scripts/redact_dump.py before sharing. It keeps every item and preserves the data shape, but:

   • replaces sender / iban / holderName / email / phone field values wholesale,
   • regex-scrubs IBANs, JWTs, emails, phone numbers, AWS pre-signed URL query strings, and any 10+ digit run,
   • maps TR cash account numbers to consistent placeholders (9000000001, 9000000002, …) so cross-file references still match,
   • takes --also-redact "<string>" for anything the regexes can't infer (your real name and its variants, account labels, etc.). Matched case-insensitively. Repeat the flag per term.

   # Default in/out: examples/out/ → examples/out_redacted/
   python scripts/redact_dump.py \
       --also-redact "Jane Doe" \
       --also-redact "Jane-Doe" \
       --also-redact "DOE-J"
   

   The script prints a per-rule hit count and the cash-account-number mapping at the end. Open the redacted JSONs and search for any remaining real names, IBAN fragments, or labels — name variants (truncations, capitalizations, hyphenations) are the classic blind spot. Re-run with extra --also-redact flags until clean.

3. Open an issue on github.com/hdecreis/libtrsync describing what you expected vs. what happened, and attach the relevant file(s) from examples/out_redacted/. A single offending eventType is often enough — pulling one item with scripts/extract_fixture.py (which also sanitizes) lets us turn it straight into a regression test.
