Title: btcmon - Multiple exchange price monitor [python, bitcoincharts] Post by: deepceleron on November 19, 2013, 10:11:50 AM I whipped up this console python code to watch the fun on exchanges, it gets data from bitcoincharts market API JSON, and then bitcoincharts socket stream, to keep up to date on exchange prices for all exchanges.
No fancy display, just a dump to console of select currencies across exchanges every time a price changes, displaying only exchanges with trades in the last two hours (currency list and how old is too old are command line options). http://we.lovebitco.in/btcmon.py (python 2.7 source) Quote from: btcmon.py btceUSD price change: -0.37200000 ======= anxhkUSD : 824.99200000 bitkonanUSD : 800.00000000 bitstampUSD : 647.00000000 btceUSD : 654.63000000 crytrUSD : 600.00000000 justUSD : 750.00000000 localbtcUSD : 732.43000000 mtgoxUSD : 763.01000000 btcnCNY : 5665.00000000 mtgoxCNY : 4838.30029000 btceUSD price change: +0.37300000 ======= anxhkUSD : 824.99200000 bitkonanUSD : 800.00000000 bitstampUSD : 647.00000000 btceUSD : 655.00300000 crytrUSD : 600.00000000 justUSD : 750.00000000 localbtcUSD : 732.43000000 mtgoxUSD : 763.01000000 btcnCNY : 5665.00000000 mtgoxCNY : 4838.30029000 .. Command line options -c, --currency, default=USD,CNY Currencies to watch, comma separated, no spaces. -a --age, default=7200 Hide tickers with no trades for xx seconds. Don't restart it more than once every 15 minutes per http://bitcoincharts.com/about/markets-api/ policy. (I'll make an exe after I make display less "dumpy") bitcoincharts socket interface code is (from)/(as documented only in) sierrachartfeed (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=6019.msg3083021#msg3083021). Maybe this will turn into a gui charting app, but not likely. Maybe I'll make it more useful as a library, but not likely. |
