truedata-ws 0.1.9

Truedata's Official Python Package

This is the official python repo for TrueData.

What have we covered so far ?

• Websocket APIs
  • Live data
  • Historical data

How do you use it ?

For beginners

• Installing from PyPi

pip install truedata

• Connecting

from truedata.websocket.TD import TD
td_app = TD('<enter_your_login_id>', '<enter_your_password>')

• Starting live data

td_app.start_live_data('<enter_symbol>', req_id=2000)  # Example: td_app.start_live_data('CRUDEOIL-I')
count = 0
while count < 60:
    print(f'{td_app.live_data[2000].ltp} @ {td_app.live_data[2000].timestamp}')
    sleep(1)
    count = count + 1

For advanced users

• Installing from PyPi

pip install truedata==xx.xx.xx <pick your version number>

• Installing from source

Download the sources

Make "truedata" the working directory using cd

python3 setup.py install

• Connecting

from truedata.websocket.TD import TD
td_app = TD('<enter_your_login_id>', '<enter_your_password>, live_port=8080, historical_port=8090)  # historical_port should be None, if you do not have access to historical data...

• Starting live data

td_app.start_live_data('<enter_symbol>', req_id=2000)  # Example: td_app.start_live_data('CRUDEOIL-I')
count = 0
while count < 60:
    print(td_app.live_data[2000].__dict__)
    sleep(1)
    count = count + 1

What is the plan going forward ?

• Ease of contract handling
• Improved error handling
