Bitcoinica API Python Interface

[area]

As I mentioned here, I've written an interface for the Bitcoinica API in Python, after not finding one out in the wild. I've now cleaned it up a little, and put it up on GitHub for all to use. It's fairly bare-bones, but hopefully some people here will find it useful. Any suggestions to improve it will be welcomed.

I have been playing around with this.  It works fine.  I have not found any bugs.

I wanted to know how would you extract the returned objects.  For example:

Code:

quotes = exchange.get_quotes
quotes
(200, {u'pair': u'BTCUSD', u'selling': 6.3806, u'buying': 6.25541})

I am am just learning python, so how would you extract the selling and buying prices?

"quotes" here is a tuple, which means it has numbered entries. for instance, quotes[0] is 200, and quotes[1] is {u'pair': u'BTCUSD', u'selling': 6.3806, u'buying': 6.25541}
the thing in braces is a dictionary, which means it has named entries. for instance, quotes[1]['selling'] will give you 6.3806, and quotes[1]['buying'] will give you 6.25541

Thanks Qoheleth!

Just what I was looking for! I've been learning python on and off for awhile, maybe this is what I needed to give me some motivation.  Thanks for posting this!

So how has this been working for everyone?  Haven't gotten the code yet.  Learning python myself and its kind of fun.

Bitcoinica went tits up years ago, so it probably didn't work out well at all.
