Documentation

The BloFin.Net documentation is the main resource for installing, configuring, and using the library.

Resource	Description
Client guide	Installation, REST and WebSocket clients, authentication, dependency injection, error handling, and advanced features
Examples	Common REST and WebSocket operations
API reference	Client interfaces, methods, and properties
Shared API guide	Common interfaces and models for working with multiple exchanges

Supported Frameworks

The library is targeting both .NET Standard 2.0 and .NET Standard 2.1 for optimal compatibility, as well as the latest dotnet versions to use the latest framework features.

.NET implementation	Version Support
.NET Core	2.0 and higher
.NET Framework	4.6.1 and higher
Mono	5.4 and higher
Xamarin.iOS	10.14 and higher
Xamarin.Android	8.0 and higher
UWP	10.0.16299 and higher
Unity	2018.1 and higher

Install the library

NuGet

dotnet add package BloFin.Net

GitHub packages

BloFin.Net is available on GitHub packages. You'll need to add https://nuget.pkg.github.com/JKorf/index.json as a NuGet package source.

Download release

The NuGet package files are added along side the source with the latest GitHub release which can found here.

API key

For accessing authenticated endpoints an API key is required. When creating an API key in the BloFin web interface select Connect to Third-Party Application and select JKorf as the application name. BloFin requires users to select the application they're using with the API key. Selecting a different application will not work with the library.

How to use

Basic request:

// Get the ETH/USDT ticker via rest request
var restClient = new BloFinRestClient();
var tickerResult = await restClient.FuturesApi.ExchangeData.GetTickersAsync("ETH-USDT");
var lastPrice = tickerResult.Data.FirstOrDefault()?.LastPrice;

Place order:

var restClient = new BloFinRestClient(opts => {
	opts.ApiCredentials = new BloFinCredentials("APIKEY", "APISECRET");
});

// Place Limit order to go long for 0.1 ETH at 2000
var orderResult = await restClient.FuturesApi.Trading.PlaceOrderAsync(
    "ETH-USDT",
    OrderSide.Buy,
    OrderType.Limit,
    0.1m,
    MarginMode.Cross,
    2000,
    positionSide: PositionSide.Long);

WebSocket subscription:

// Subscribe to ETH/USDT ticker updates via the websocket API
var socketClient = new BloFinSocketClient();
var tickerSubscriptionResult = socketClient.FuturesApi.SubscribeToTickerUpdatesAsync("ETH-USDT", (update) => 
{
  var lastPrice = update.Data.LastPrice;
});

For more examples and explanations, continue with the BloFin.Net documentation or browse the compilable repository examples.

Shared / unified API

The CryptoExchange.Net Shared APIs provide exchange-agnostic, unified interfaces for common operations such as retrieving tickers, order books and balances, placing orders, and subscribing to market updates.

This allows the same application code to work with different exchange libraries. The supported BloFin API surfaces expose their shared functionality through a SharedClient property. Because support differs between exchanges and API surfaces, call Discover() to inspect the available trading modes, environments, endpoints, and subscriptions at runtime.

Supported shared interfaces

API	Type	Supported interfaces
AccountApi	REST	IDepositRestClient, IWithdrawalRestClient
FuturesApi	REST	IBalanceRestClient, IBookTickerRestClient, IFundingRateRestClient, IFuturesOrderClientIdRestClient, IFuturesOrderRestClient, IFuturesSymbolRestClient, IFuturesTickerRestClient, IFuturesTpSlRestClient, IFuturesTriggerOrderRestClient, IIndexPriceKlineRestClient, IKlineRestClient, ILeverageRestClient, IMarkPriceKlineRestClient, IOrderBookRestClient, IPositionHistoryRestClient, IPositionModeRestClient, IRecentTradeRestClient
FuturesApi	WebSocket	IBalanceSocketClient, IBookTickerSocketClient, IFuturesOrderSocketClient, IKlineSocketClient, IOrderBookSocketClient, IPositionSocketClient, ITickerSocketClient, ITradeSocketClient

Discover supported functionality

var sharedClient = new BloFinRestClient().FuturesApi.SharedClient;
var clientInfo = sharedClient.Discover();

Console.WriteLine(clientInfo);

Example

using BloFin.Net.Clients;
using CryptoExchange.Net.SharedApis;

var sharedClient = new BloFinRestClient().FuturesApi.SharedClient;
IFuturesTickerRestClient tickerClient = sharedClient;

var symbol = new SharedSymbol(TradingMode.PerpetualLinear, "ETH", "USDT");
var result = await tickerClient.GetFuturesTickerAsync(
    new GetTickerRequest(symbol));

if (!result.Success)
{
    Console.WriteLine(result.Error);
    return;
}

Console.WriteLine(result.Data.LastPrice);

The request and response models belong to CryptoExchange.Net.SharedApis, so the same pattern can be used with another exchange's SharedClient.

CryptoExchange.Net

BloFin.Net is based on the CryptoExchange.Net base library. Other exchange API implementations based on the CryptoExchange.Net base library are available and follow the same logic.

CryptoExchange.Net also provides shared access to different exchange APIs.

When using multiple of these API's the CryptoClients.Net package can be used which combines this and the other packages and allows easy access to all exchange API's.
