!Important! Note
----

This is a maintained fork of the original package. **The npm package name has
changed** because we could not get access to the npmjs repository to keep it
updated. Please see the [Quick start](https://github.com/dparlevliet/node.bittrex.api#quick-start) section for the new package name and
instructions.

Also, the **websocket code has changed** after Bittrex switched to using Cloudflare
so please see the new ``Websockets`` documentation and updated unit tests and
examples in the ``examples/`` folder.

Node Bittrex API
=========

Node Bittrex API is an asynchronous node.js library for the Bittrex API - https://bittrex.com/.
The Bittrex API data can be received either as a GET request or via Websockets API.

Before you start
----
This is just a quick reminder that you are handling coins with this library (and thus real money), so, understand the situation as much as possible and make everything to prevent losing them.

Here is a small checklist you should go through before you start:

- Make sure you don't give your api key more rights as absolutely necessary - for first testing READ INFO alone should be enough! (bittrex.com under: Settings/API Keys)

![bittrex_ap_keys_control](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/260321/29748739-a6c2c00e-8b1c-11e7-95ec-1b0221348235.png)

- make sure to understand the API Key permissions
1. READ INFO - Allows you to read private details such as open orders, order history, balances, etc
2. TRADE LIMIT - Allows you to create/cancel trade limit buy/sell orders
3. TRADE MARKET - allows you to create/cancel market buy/sell orders
4. WITHDRAW - Allows you to withdraw to another address
- Make use of the Bittrex IP Whitelist as also the Withdrawal Whitelist features
- Do not ever commit your API Keys to GitHub or expose them under any circumstances!

Quick start
----
```sh
$ npm install node-bittrex-api
```

```javascript
var bittrex = require('node-bittrex-api');
bittrex.options({
'apikey' : API_KEY,
'apisecret' : API_SECRET,
});
bittrex.getmarketsummaries( function( data, err ) {
if (err) {
return console.error(err);
}
for( var i in data.result ) {
bittrex.getticker( { market : data.result[i].MarketName }, function( ticker ) {
console.log( ticker );
});
}
});
```

Advanced start
----

fetch the project via git:
```sh
$ git clone https://github.com/dparlevliet/node.bittrex.api.git
```

then meet the package dependencies:
```sh
$ cd node.bittrex.api/
$ npm install
```

Include ``node.bittrex.api.js`` into your project:
```javascript
var bittrex = require('./node.bittrex.api.js');
```

##### Configuration
```javascript
bittrex.options({
'apikey' : API_KEY,
'apisecret' : API_SECRET,
'verbose' : true,
'cleartext' : false
});
```

By default the returned data is an object, in order to get clear text you have to add the option **cleartext** (streams will always return text):
```javascript
'cleartext' : true
```

The baseUrl itself can also be set via options
```javascript
'baseUrl' : 'https://bittrex.com/api/v1',
'baseUrlv2' : 'https://bittrex.com/Api/v2.0',
```

Change the callbacks arguments sequence
```javascript
'inverse_callback_arguments' : true,
```
This simply changes the sequence in which the arguments are passed, instead of e.g.:
```javascript
getmarkethistory({market : 'USDT-BTC'}, function(data, error) {});
```
you'll get the reversed order:
```javascript
getmarkethistory({market : 'USDT-BTC'}, function(data, error) {});
```

Websockets
--

#### Basic example
```javascript
bittrex.websockets.client(function() {
console.log('Websocket connected');
bittrex.websockets.subscribe(['BTC-ETH'], function(data) {
if (data.M === 'updateExchangeState') {
data.A.forEach(function(data_for) {
console.log('Market Update for '+ data_for.MarketName, data_for);
});
}
});
});
```

#### Basic example with event emitters
```javascript
bittrex.options({
websockets: {
onConnect: function() {
console.log('Websocket connected');
bittrex.websockets.subscribe(['BTC-ETH'], function(data) {
if (data.M === 'updateExchangeState') {
data.A.forEach(function(data_for) {
console.log('Market Update for '+ data_for.MarketName, data_for);
});
}
});
},
onDisconnect: function() {
console.log('Websocket disconnected');
}
}
});

var websocketClient;
bittrex.websockets.client(function(client) {
websocketClient = client;
});
```

#### Available methods
All of these methods will build a websocket client and attempt a connection if
you have not run ``websockets.client`` yourself. See ``examples/`` for a better
understanding.

#### websockets.listen
This will subscribe to just the global ticker updates.

Note: It is recommended to use this in ``onConnect()`` - see example ``examples/``.

```javascript
bittrex.websockets.listen(function(data, client) {
if (data.M === 'updateSummaryState') {
data.A.forEach(function(data_for) {
data_for.Deltas.forEach(function(marketsDelta) {
console.log('Ticker Update for '+ marketsDelta.MarketName, marketsDelta);
});
});
}
});
```

#### websockets.subscribe
This will subscribe to the specified markets data. To build
your candle data, order book and market history, etc. you will need to subscribe
to the individual markets you wish to watch. You can subscribe to all of them.

This can be called multiple times.

Note: It is recommended to use this in ``onConnect()`` - see example ``examples/``.

```javascript
bittrex.websockets.subscribe(['BTC-ETH','BTC-SC','BTC-ZEN'], function(data, client) {
if (data.M === 'updateExchangeState') {
data.A.forEach(function(data_for) {
console.log('Market Update for '+ data_for.MarketName, data_for);
});
}
});
```

#### Websocket serviceHandlers example
You can override the libraries logic for the following events. Note, this will
replace the libraries logic.
```javascript
bittrex.websockets.client(function(client) {
client.serviceHandlers.reconnecting = function (message) {
return true; // set to true stops reconnect/retrying
}

client.serviceHandlers.messageReceived = function (message) {
console.log(message); // the messages received must be parsed as json first e.g. via jsonic(message.utf8Data)
}
});
```

all possible serviceHandlers
```javascript
bound: function() { console.log("Websocket bound"); },
connectFailed: function(error) { console.log("Websocket connectFailed: ", error); },
connected: function(connection) { console.log("Websocket connected"); },
disconnected: function() { console.log("Websocket disconnected"); },
onerror: function (error) { console.log("Websocket onerror: ", error); },
messageReceived: function (message) { console.log("Websocket messageReceived: ", message); return false; },
bindingError: function (error) { console.log("Websocket bindingError: ", error); },
connectionLost: function (error) { console.log("Connection Lost: ", error); },
reconnecting: function (retry { inital: true/false, count: 0} ) {
console.log("Websocket Retrying: ", retry);
//return retry.count >= 3; // cancel retry true
return true;
}
```

Streams
--
Streams have been removed

Examples
--
After configuration you can use the object right away:
example #1
```javascript
bittrex.getmarketsummaries( function( data, err ) {
if (err) {
return console.error(err);
}
for( var i in data.result ) {
bittrex.getticker( { market : data.result[i].MarketName }, function( ticker ) {
console.log( ticker );
});
}
});
```

example #2
```javascript
bittrex.getbalance({ currency : 'BTC' }, function( data, err ) {
if (err) {
return console.error(err);
}
console.log( data );
});
```

Example of request/domain based errors (not Bittrex API error)
```javascript
var url = 'http://fake.bittrex.com/api/v1.1/public/getticker?market=USDT-BTCXXX';
bittrex.sendCustomRequest( url, function( data, err ) {
if (err) {
/**
{
success: false,
message: 'URL request error',
error:
{ Error: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND fake.bittrex.com fake.bittrex.com:80
at errnoException (dns.js:28:10)
at GetAddrInfoReqWrap.onlookup [as oncomplete] (dns.js:76:26)
code: 'ENOTFOUND',
errno: 'ENOTFOUND',
syscall: 'getaddrinfo',
hostname: 'fake.bittrex.com',
host: 'fake.bittrex.com',
port: 80 },
result: undefined
}
*/
return console.error(err);
}
console.log(data);
});
```

Example of request/url based errors (not Bittrex API error)
```javascript
var url = 'http://bittrex.com/api/v1.1/public/getfakeendpoint';
bittrex.sendCustomRequest( url, function( data, err ) {
if (err) {
/**
{
success: false,
message: 'URL request error',
error: undefined,
result: {
statusCode: 404,
statusMessage: 'Not Found',
body: '\r\n ...'
}
}
*/
return console.error(err);
}
console.log(data);
});
```

Example of Bittrex API error
```javascript
bittrex.getcandles({
marketName: 'USDT-BTC',
tickInterval: 300
}, function(data, err) {
if (err) {
/**
{
success: false,
message: 'INVALID_TICK_INTERVAL',
result: null
}
*/
return console.error(err);
}
console.log(data);
});
```

Supported v2 API methods
------

Little is known about the v2 api at present. We have support for only a few methods
with very little documentation. Given that the v2 api is still in development by
Bittrex it is possible these methods will change or become invalid without notice.

##### getcandles
```javascript
bittrex.getcandles({
marketName: 'USDT-BTC',
tickInterval: 'fiveMin', // intervals are keywords: 'oneMin', 'fiveMin', 'thirtyMin', 'hour', 'day'
}, function( data, err ) {
console.log( data );
});
```

##### tradesell
```javascript
bittrex.tradesell({
MarketName: 'BTC-ZEC',
OrderType: 'LIMIT',
Quantity: 1.00000000,
Rate: 0.04423432,
TimeInEffect: 'IMMEDIATE_OR_CANCEL', // supported options are 'IMMEDIATE_OR_CANCEL', 'GOOD_TIL_CANCELLED', 'FILL_OR_KILL'
ConditionType: 'NONE', // supported options are 'NONE', 'GREATER_THAN', 'LESS_THAN'
Target: 0, // used in conjunction with ConditionType
}, function( data, err ) {
console.log( data );
});
```

##### tradebuy
```javascript
bittrex.tradebuy({
MarketName: 'BTC-ZEC',
OrderType: 'LIMIT',
Quantity: 1.00000000,
Rate: 0.04423432,
TimeInEffect: 'IMMEDIATE_OR_CANCEL', // supported options are 'IMMEDIATE_OR_CANCEL', 'GOOD_TIL_CANCELLED', 'FILL_OR_KILL'
ConditionType: 'NONE', // supported options are 'NONE', 'GREATER_THAN', 'LESS_THAN'
Target: 0, // used in conjunction with ConditionType
}, function( data, err ) {
console.log( data );
});
```

# Testing

Testing requires an api key/secret which should be
installed in to `.env` - you will find an example file in
`.env_example`.

```bash
cp .env_example .env
vim .env
```

Running the tests
```bash
npm test
```
