Official implementation
REST API
WebSockets API
REST API version 2
WebSockets API version 2

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'bitfinex-rb', :require => "bitfinex"

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install bitfinex-rb

This repo is primarily made up of 3 classes: RESTv1, RESTv2, and WSv2, which implement their respective versions of the Bitfinex API. It is recommended that you use the REST APIs for reading data, and the WebSocket API for submitting orders and interacting with the Bitfinex platform.

Usage of RESTv1/RESTv2

To use the REST APIs, construct a new API client with your account credentials:

client = Bitfinex::RESTv2.new({
  :api_key => '...',
  :api_secret => '...',
})

Then use it to submit queries, i.e. client.balances

Usage of WSv2

To use version 2 of the WS API, construct a new client with your credentials, bind listeners to react to stream events, and open the connection:

client = Bitfinex::WSv2.new({
  :url => ENV['WS_URL'],
  :api_key => ENV['API_KEY'],
  :api_secret => ENV['API_SECRET'],
  :transform => true, # provide models as event data instead of arrays
  :seq_audit => true, # enable and audit sequence numbers
  :manage_order_books => true # allows for OB checksum verification
  :checksum_audit => true, # enables OB checksum verification (needs manage_order_books)
})

client.on(:open) do
  client.auth!
end

client.on(:auth) do
  puts 'succesfully authenticated'

  o = Bitfinex::Models::Order.new({
    :type => 'EXCHANGE LIMIT',
    :price => 3.0152235,
    :amount => 2.0235235263262,
    :symbol => 'tEOSUSD'
  })

  client.submit_order(o)
end

client.on(:notification) do |n|
  puts 'received notification: %s' % [n]
end

client.on(:order_new) do |msg|
  puts 'recv order new: %s' % [msg]
end

client.open!

Order Manipulation

Three methods are provided for dealing with orders: submit_order, update_order and cancel_order. All methods support callback blocks, which are triggered upon receiving the relevant confirmation notifications. Example:

o = Bitfinex::Models::Order.new({
  :type => 'EXCHANGE LIMIT',
  :price => 3.0152235,
  :amount => 2.0235235263262,
  :symbol => 'tEOSUSD'
})

client.submit_order(o) do |order_packet|
  p "recv order confirmation packet with ID #{order_packet.id}"

  client.update_order({
    :id => order_packet.id,
    :price => '3.0'
  }) do |update_packet|
    p "updated order #{update_packet.id} with price #{update_packet.price}"

    client.cancel_order(order_packet) do |canceled_order|
      p "canceled order with ID #{canceled_order[0]}"
    end
  end
end
