Lighter SDK

Perpetual and spot Market support for Lighter, built on typed-lighter. Install with pip install tribulnation-lighter.

from tribulnation.lighter import LighterMarket

async with LighterMarket.new(public=True) as venue:
  perp = await venue.perp_exchange('perp')
  market = await perp.market('1')  # BTC
  book = await market.depth(levels=5)

Account and trading methods need an API key registered for the account:

venue = LighterMarket.new(account_index=476, api_key_index=4, api_private_key='0x…')

With no arguments, the client reads LIGHTER_ACCOUNT_INDEX, LIGHTER_API_KEY_INDEX and LIGHTER_API_PRIVATE_KEY (LIGHTER_TESTNET_* with network='testnet').

1. Exchanges are perp and spot. Market ids are the venue's numeric market_id ('0' ETH and '1' BTC perpetuals, '2048' ETH/USDC spot on mainnet): the ids orders are signed with. Symbols are API metadata only, and ids differ between networks. Asset ids are the venue's asset_id ('3' is USDC).
2. Public data: discovery, tickers, rules, REST depth (the top 250 orders per side, summed per price), a shared full-book stream, candles in the six SDK intervals, perpetual index, perp_stats, next funding and hourly funding-rate history.
3. Account and trading: fees (the account's fee ticks, in parts per million), order queries, open orders, trade history and streams with fees, positions, collateral, available notional, funding payments, MARKET, LIMIT and POST_ONLY orders, and every cancellation method. Order ids are client order indexes.
4. Perpetual fees, margin and funding are in USDC. Spot fees are charged in the asset a fill delivers, so spot rules().fee_asset is None and each Trade.fee names it.
5. Perpetual collateral covers cross and isolated positions. Spot collateral supports unified accounts only.

Report snapshots every account (master and sub-accounts) of an L1 address, with no credentials:

from tribulnation.lighter import Report

async with Report.new('0x…') as report:
  record = await report.snapshot()

Each account is a <index> subaccount with its spot and margin balances, isolated margin, and positions. Pool shares (public pools, the LLP, LIT staking) are <index>:pool:<pool> subaccounts holding the pro-rata part of the pool's balances; an operated pool contributes only the operator's shares. Report.new also takes the index of any account instead, and looks up its address. Through ReportSDK, the account's address (default LIGHTER_ADDRESS) is used when set, else its account_index, so a MarketSDK account configuration works unchanged. history() is not supported.

See Lighter Market for account configuration through MarketSDK and venue-specific semantics.
