## How to use it

```js

const main = async () => {
const client = new KuCoinWs();
const symbol = 'BTC/USDT';

await client.connect();

client.on(`ticker-${symbol}`, ticker => console.log(ticker));

## API

This package export one class `KuCoinWs` and extend from [Emittery](https://www.npmjs.com/package/emittery), which allow us to dispatch and listen events.
More information about Emittery API here: https://github.com/sindresorhus/emittery#api

### General events

There are several events which are emitted in different contexts.

- `subscriptions`: emitted when a new subscription is made or closed
- `socket-not-ready`: emitted when the socket is not ready to subscribe (will try to subscribe later)
- `reconnect`: emitted when a reconnection occurred
- `retry-subscription`: emitted event when we retry to subscribe
- `error`: emitted when an error occurred
- `reconnect-candle`: emitted when a candle socket reconnect. Value emitted: `{ symbol: string; interval: string; }`

```js
import { KuCoinWs } from '@iofate/kucoin-ws';

const kuCoinWs = new KuCoinWs();

client.on('subscriptions', subscriptions => console.log('update on subscriptions', subscriptions));
client.on('reconnect', () => console.log('a reconnection occurred'));
client.on('socket-not-ready', msg => console.warn('socket not ready', msg));
client.on('error', error => console.error(error));
```

### kuCoinWs = new KuCoinWs()

Create a new instance of KuCoinWs.

### kuCoinWs.connect()

Open KuCoin websockets. **Must be called before any subscription!**

Returns a promise. **Can throw errors**

```js
import { KuCoinWs } from '@iofate/kucoin-ws';

const kuCoinWs = new KuCoinWs();

await kuCoinWs.connect();
```

### kuCoinWs.subscribeTicker(symbol)

Subscribe to the websocket ticker of the chosen symbol.
Once called you'll be able to listen to ticker events for this symbol.
**`connect` method must be called before calling this one.**

```js
import { KuCoinWs } from '@iofate/kucoin-ws';

const kuCoinWs = new KuCoinWs();

await kuCoinWs.connect();
kuCoinWs.subscribeTicker('BTC/USDT');
kuCoinWs.on('ticker-BTC/USDT', ticker => console.log(ticker));
```

### kuCoinWs.subscribeTickers(symbols)

Subscribe to the websocket ticker of a symbol list.
Once called you'll be able to listen to ticker events for all of those symbols.
**`connect` method must be called before calling this one.**

```js
import { KuCoinWs } from '@iofate/kucoin-ws';

const kuCoinWs = new KuCoinWs();

await kuCoinWs.connect();
kuCoinWs.subscribeTickers(['BTC/USDT', 'ETH/USDT']);
kuCoinWs.on('ticker-BTC/USDT', ticker => console.log(ticker));
kuCoinWs.on('ticker-ETH/USDT', ticker => console.log(ticker));
```

### kuCoinWs.unsubscribeTicker(symbol)

Unsubscribe from the ticker websocket of the associated symbol.
Once called no more events will be dispatched.

```js
import { KuCoinWs } from '@iofate/kucoin-ws';

const kuCoinWs = new KuCoinWs();

await kuCoinWs.connect();
kuCoinWs.subscribeTicker('BTC/USDT');
const stopListenFn = kuCoinWs.on('ticker-BTC/USDT', ticker => console.log(ticker));
kuCoinWs.unsubscribeTicker('BTC/USDT');
stopListenFn();
```

### kuCoinWs.unsubscribeTickers(symbols)

Unsubscribe from the ticker websocket for the list of symbols.
Once called no more events will be dispatched.

```js
import { KuCoinWs } from '@iofate/kucoin-ws';

const kuCoinWs = new KuCoinWs();

await kuCoinWs.connect();
kuCoinWs.subscribeTickers(['BTC/USDT', 'ETH/USDT']);
kuCoinWs.unsubscribeTickers(['BTC/USDT', 'ETH/USDT']);
```

### kuCoinWs.subscribeCandles(symbol, timeFrame)

Subscribe to the websocket candle of the chosen symbol and time frame.
Once called you'll be able to listen to candle events for this symbol.
**`connect` method must be called before calling this one.**

```js
import { KuCoinWs } from '@iofate/kucoin-ws';

const kuCoinWs = new KuCoinWs();

await kuCoinWs.connect();
kuCoinWs.subscribeCandles('BTC/USDT', '1d');
kuCoinWs.on('candle-BTC/USDT-1d', candle => console.log(candle));
```

### kuCoinWs.unsubscribeCandles(symbol, timeFrame)

Unsubscribe from the candle websocket of the associated symbol.
Once called no more events will be dispatched.

```js
import { KuCoinWs } from '@iofate/kucoin-ws';

const kuCoinWs = new KuCoinWs();

await kuCoinWs.connect();
kuCoinWs.subscribeCandles('BTC/USDT', '1d');
const stopListenFn = kuCoinWs.on('candle-BTC/USDT-1d', candle => console.log(candle));
kuCoinWs.unsubscribeCandles('BTC/USDT', '1d');
stopListenFn();
```

### kuCoinWs.closeConnection()
