Convenient methods for making API calls using keyword arguments
Near 100% test coverage.
Tab-completable methods and attributes when using IPython <http://ipython.org/>_.
hitbtcapi is available on PYPI <https://pypi.python.org/pypi>_. Install with pip:
.. code:: bash
$ pip install hitbtcapi
or with easy_install:
.. code:: bash
$ easy_install hitbtcapi
The library is currently tested against Python versions 2.7 and 3.4+.
The official documentation can be found on the HitBTC API reference page <https://api.hitbtc.com/>. You can also explore the API <https://api.hitbtc.com/api/2/explore/> using Swagger UI.
The first thing you need to do is to Sign Up with HitBTC <https://hitbtc.com/signupapp>_.
Next, you need to obtain an API Key and an API Secret. If you're writing code for your own HitBTC account, you can create API keys on HitBTC API Settings <https://hitbtc.com/settings/api-keys>_ page. You can create multiple API keys with different permissions for your applications.
NOTE: Make sure to enable appropriate permissions for the API key (some require email confirmation).
Create a Client object for interacting with the API:
.. code:: python
from hitbtcapi.client import Client
api_key = 'your api key'
api_secret = 'your api secret'
client = Client(api_key,api_secret)
All errors occurring during interaction with the API will be raised as exceptions. These exceptions will be subclasses of hitbtcapi.errors.HitBTCError. When the error involves an API request and/or response, the error will be a subclass of hitbtcapi.errors.APIError, and include more information about the failed interaction. For full details of error responses, please refer to the relevant API documentation <https://api.hitbtc.com/#error-response>_.
+-------------------------+----------------------+ | Error | HTTP Status code | +=========================+======================+ | InvalidRequestError | 400 | +-------------------------+----------------------+ | AuthenticationError | 401 | +-------------------------+----------------------+ | TwoFactorRequiredError | 402 | +-------------------------+----------------------+ | InvalidScopeError | 403 | +-------------------------+----------------------+ | NotFoundError | 404 | +-------------------------+----------------------+ | ValidationError | 422 | +-------------------------+----------------------+ | RateLimitExceededError | 429 | +-------------------------+----------------------+ | InternalServerError | 500 | +-------------------------+----------------------+ | ServiceUnavailableError | 503 | +-------------------------+----------------------+ | GatewayTimeoutError | 504 | +-------------------------+----------------------+
I've done my best to make the code clean, commented, and understandable; however it may not be exhaustive. For more details, please refer to the HitBTC API official documentation <https://api.hitbtc.com/>_ or the API Explorer <https://api.hitbtc.com/api/2/explore/>_.

Any contribution is welcome! The process is simple:
Tests are run via nosetest <https://nose.readthedocs.io/en/latest/>_. To run the tests, clone the repository and then:
.. code:: bash
# Install the required dependencies
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
$ pip install -r test-requirements.txt
# Run the tests
$ make tests
If you'd also like to generate an HTML coverage report (useful for figuring out which lines of code are actually being tested), make sure the requirements are installed and then run:
.. code:: bash
$ make coverage
I am using tox <http://tox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install.html>_ to run the test suite against multiple versions of Python. Tox requires the appropriate Python interpreters to run the tests in different environments. I would recommend using pyenv <https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv#installation>_ for this.
However, the process is a little unintuitive because tox does not seem to work with multiple versions of python (installed via pyenv) when inside a pyenv virtual environment. So, first deactivate your pyenv virtual environment:
.. code:: bash
$ (hitbtcapi-venv) pyenv deactivate
and then install tox with pip or easy_install:
.. code:: bash
$ pip install tox # or
$ easy_install tox
Install python versions which you want to test:
.. code:: bash
$ pyenv install 2.7.14
$ pyenv install 3.5.0
$ pyenv install 3.6.0
and so forth. Now, in your project directory:
.. code:: bash
# all versions which are in tox.ini file
$ pyenv local 2.7.14 3.5.0 3.6.0
# run the tests for all the above versions
$ tox
