An API wrapper for Poloniex.com written in Python

#####poloniex.py - Tested on Python 2.7.12 & 3.5.2 Inspired by this wrapper written by 'oipminer'

Features:

  • ApiKey and Secret are optional if used for just public commands.
  • Api Commands have been 'mapped' into methods within the Poloniex class for your convenience.
  • Raises ValueError if the command supplied does not exist or if the api keys are not defined
  • The poloniex.Poloniex() object has an optional 'timeout' attribute/arg that adjusts the number of seconds to wait for a response from polo (default = 3 sec)
  • Optional api 'coach' can restrict the amount of calls per sec, keeping your api calls (that aren't threaded) under the limit (6 calls per sec). Activate the coach using poloniex.Poloniex(coach=True) when creating the polo object or by defining polo._coaching = True.

Install:

Python 2:

pip install git+https://github.com/toothpick5/python-poloniex.git

Python 3:

pip3 install git+https://github.com/toothpick5/python-poloniex.git

Uninstall:

Python 2:

pip uninstall poloniex

Python 3:

pip3 uninstall poloniex

Usage:

Basic Public Setup (no ApiKey/Secret):

from poloniex import Poloniex
polo = Poloniex()
Ticker
print(polo('returnTicker')['BTC_CGA'])
# or
print(polo.returnTicker()['BTC_CGA'])
Public trade history:
print(polo.marketTradeHist('BTC_CGA'))

Basic Private Setup (ApiKey/Secret required):

import poloniex
polo = poloniex.Poloniex('your-Api-Key-Here-xxxx','yourSecretKeyHere123456789')
# or
polo.Key = 'your-Api-Key-Here-xxxx'
polo.Secret = 'yourSecretKeyHere123456789'
Get all your balances
balance = polo.returnBalances()
print("I have %s CGA!" % balance['CGA'])
# or
balance = polo('returnBalances')
print("I have %s BTC!" % balance['BTC'])

Extended Setup:

from poloniex import Poloniex
polo = Poloniex('your-Api-Key-Here-xxxx','yourSecretKeyHere123456789', extend=True)

Using extend=True will wrap most of the api commands with more 'meaningful' namespaces.

print(polo.marketTicker())
print(polo.myBalances())
