bfx-api-node-plugin-seq-audit

Bitfinex Sequence Number Audit Plugin for the Node.JS API

This plugin enables the sequence reporting flag upon connecting, and emits an error event upon receiving an invalid sequence number.

Note that the manager proxies the event as ws2:error. If subscribing on a socket instance (wsState.ev.on(...)) use the internal event name, otherwise use the manager name with manager.onWS(...).

Features

• Automatically enables sequence numbers on all connections
• Emits a ws2:error event in case of sequence number miss-match

Installation

npm i --save bfx-api-node-plugin-seq-audit

Quickstart & Example

const debug = require('debug')('bfx:api:plugins:seq-audit:example')

const SYMBOL = 'tBTCUSD'
const mgr = new Manager({
  transform: true,
  plugins: [SeqAuditPlugin()]
})
 
mgr.onWS('open', {}, () => debug('connection open'))
 
// Catch checksum errors
mgr.onWS('ws2:error', {}, (err) => {
  if (err.message.match(/invalid(.*)seq/)) {
    debug('recv invalid seq # error: %s', err.message)
  }
})
