Orderbook

A gem for creating a realtime order book for the Coinbase Exchange.

Version 4.0.0 switches to keyword arguments, supports other currencies.

Version 3.0.0 has a slightly different interface and properly queues messages for an accurate Orderbook.

Version 1.0.0 and greater now use the official Coinbase Exchange Ruby Gem's EventMachine-driven client. It should be more reliable than the previous socket code.

Also, the gem now uses BigDecimal in place of Float when dealing with sizes and prices.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'orderbook'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install orderbook

require 'orderbook'

• Create a live updating Orderbook:

ob = Orderbook.new

• Create an Orderbook object but don't fetch an orderbook or start live updating.

ob = Orderbook.new(start: false)

# When you want it to go live:

ob.start!

# When you want to stop it:

ob.stop!

# Reset the orderbook by fetching a fresh orderbook snapshot. This just calls
# `stop!` and then `start!` again:

ob.reset!

• Get the "BTC-GBP" orderbook instead of "BTC-USD":

ob = Orderbook.new(product_id: "BTC-GBP")

• Create a live Orderbook with a callback to fire on each message:

ob = Orderbook.new do |message|
  if message.fetch 'type' == 'match'
    puts ob.spread.to_f('s')
  end
end

• Create or reset the message callback:

ob.on_message do |message|
  puts ob.count
end

• List current bids:

ob.bids

• List current asks:

ob.asks

• Show sequence number for initial level 3 snapshot:

ob.snapshot_sequence

• Show sequence number for the last message received

ob.last_sequence

• Show the last Time a pong was received after a ping (ensures the connection is still alive):

ob.last_pong
