gofair

Lightweight golang wrapper for Betfair API-NG

setup

In order to connect to the Betfair API you will need an App Key, SSL Certificates and a username/password.

App Key

Follow these instructions to get your app key, you can either use a delayed or live key.

SSL certificates

Follow these instructions to set up your SSL certificates. Save your .ctr and .key files to a local directory. The default directory where the library is looking for the keys is '/certs' but you can specify any other directory.

examples

A set of examples on how to use this library are available in the examples directory. You will need to supply a valid config.json in order to interact with the Exchange see examples/config_template.json for an example configuration.

streaming

gofair makes extensive use of channels for handling data returned by the Stream API. This provides the user with a reasonable amount of flexibility as you have both synchronous and asynchronous options (see examples/stream-sync and examples/stream-async).

use

config := &gofair.Config{
		"username",
		"password",
		"appKey",
		"/certs/client-2048.crt",
		"/certs/client-2048.key",
		"",
}

trading, err := gofair.NewClient(config)
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}


fmt.Println(trading.Login())
fmt.Println(trading.KeepAlive())
fmt.Println(trading.Logout())

filter := new(gofair.MarketFilter)
event_types, err := trading.Betting.ListEventTypes(filter)

fmt.Println(event_types)
