UNICORN Binance Local Depth Cache

Description | Installation | Documentation | Examples | Change Log | Wiki | Social | Notifications | Bugs | Contributing | Leave a review |Disclaimer | Commercial Support

A local Binance DepthCache Manager for Python that supports multiple depth caches in one instance in a easy, fast, flexible, robust and fully-featured way.

Looking for the best performing Binance Depth Cache implementation?

Part of 'UNICORN Binance Suite'.

Create a local depth_cache for Binance with just 3 lines of code:

import unicorn_binance_local_depth_cache

ubldc = unicorn_binance_local_depth_cache.BinanceLocalDepthCacheManager(exchange="binance.com")
ubldc.create_depth_cache("BTCUSDT")

Get the asks and bids depth with:

asks = ubldc.get_asks("BTCUSDT")
bids = ubldc.get_bids("BTCUSDT")

Catch an exception, if the depth_cache is out of sync while accessing its data:

try:
    print(f"Top 10 asks: {ubldc.get_asks(market=market)[:10]}")
    print(f"Top 10 bids: {ubldc.get_bids(market=market)[:10]}")
except DepthCacheOutOfSync as error_msg:
    print(f"ERROR: {error_msg}")

Stop and delete a depth_cache:

ubldc.stop_depth_cache("BTCUSDT")

Stop the full instance:

ubldc.stop_manager_with_all_depth_caches()

Get the right logger:

logging.getLogger("unicorn_binance_local_depth_cache")

Description

The Python package UNICORN Binance Local Depth Cache provides a local depth_cache for the Binance Exchanges Binance (+Testnet), Binance Futures (+Testnet) - more are coming soon.

The algorithm of the depth_cache management was designed according to these instructions:

By create_depth_cache() the depth_cache is started and initialized, that means for each depth_cache you want to create a separate thread is started. As soon as at least one depth update is received via websocket, a REST snapshot is downloaded and the depth updates are applied to it, keeping it in sync in real-time. Once this is done, the state of the cache is set to "synchronous".

Data in the depth_cache can be accessed with 'get_asks()' and 'get_bids()'. If the state of the depth_cache is not synchronous during access, the exception 'DepthCacheOutOfSync' is thrown.

The depth_cache will immediately start an automatic re-initialization if a gap in the UpdateID`s is detected (missing update event) or if the websocket connection is interrupted. As soon as this happens the state of the depth_cache is set to "out of sync" and when accessing the cache the exception 'DepthCacheOutOfSync' is thrown.

Why a local depth_cache?

A local depth_cache is the fastest way to access the current order book depth at any time while transferring as little data as necessary. A REST snapshot takes a lot of time and the amount of data that is transferred is relatively large. Continuous full transmission of the order book via websocket is faster, but the amount of data is huge. A local depth_cache is initialized once with a REST snapshot and then handles Diff. Depth updates applied by the websocket connection. By transferring a small amount of data (only the changes), a local depth_cache is kept in sync in real time and also allows extremely fast (local) access to the data without exceeding the Binance request weight limits.

What are the benefits of the UNICORN Binance Local Depth Cache?

  • Always know if the cache is in sync! If the depth_cache is out of sync, the exception 'DepthCacheOutOfSync' is thrown or ask with is_depth_cache_synchronized().
  • If a depth cache is out of sync it gets refreshed automatically within a few seconds.
  • 100% Websocket auto-reconnect!
