Installation

cargo add polyte-clob

Usage

Setup

use polyte_clob::{Account, Chain, ClobBuilder};

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    // Load account from environment variables
    let account = Account::from_env()?;

    // Create CLOB client
    let clob = ClobBuilder::new(account)
        .chain(Chain::PolygonMainnet)
        .build()?;

    Ok(())
}

Account Configuration

The Account abstraction provides multiple ways to load credentials:

use polyte_clob::{Account, Credentials};

// Option 1: From environment variables
// Reads: POLYMARKET_PRIVATE_KEY, POLYMARKET_API_KEY,
//        POLYMARKET_API_SECRET, POLYMARKET_API_PASSPHRASE
let account = Account::from_env()?;

// Option 2: From a JSON file
let account = Account::from_file("config/account.json")?;

// Option 3: Direct construction
let credentials = Credentials {
    key: "api_key".to_string(),
    secret: "api_secret".to_string(),
    passphrase: "passphrase".to_string(),
};
let account = Account::new("0x...", credentials)?;

Place an Order

use polyte_clob::{CreateOrderParams, OrderSide};

let params = CreateOrderParams {
    token_id: "token_id_here".to_string(),
    price: 0.52,
    size: 100.0,
    side: OrderSide::Buy,
    expiration: None,
};

// Single method to create, sign, and post order
let response = clob.place_order(&params).await?;

if response.success {
    println!("Order placed: {:?}", response.order_id);
} else {
    eprintln!("Order failed: {:?}", response.error_msg);
}

WebSocket

Market Channel

Subscribe to real-time order book and price updates (no authentication required):

use polyte_clob::ws::{WebSocket, Channel, MarketMessage};
use futures_util::StreamExt;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    let mut ws = WebSocket::connect_market(vec![
        "asset_id".to_string(),
    ]).await?;

    while let Some(msg) = ws.next().await {
        match msg? {
            Channel::Market(MarketMessage::Book(book)) => {
                println!("Order book: {} bids, {} asks", book.bids.len(), book.asks.len());
            }
            Channel::Market(MarketMessage::PriceChange(pc)) => {
                println!("Price change: {:?}", pc.price_changes);
            }
            _ => {}
        }
    }

    Ok(())
}

User Channel

Subscribe to authenticated order and trade updates:

use polyte_clob::ws::{ApiCredentials, WebSocket, Channel, UserMessage};
use futures_util::StreamExt;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    let credentials = ApiCredentials::from_env()?;

    let mut ws = WebSocket::connect_user(
        vec!["condition_id".to_string()],
        credentials,
    ).await?;

    while let Some(msg) = ws.next().await {
        match msg? {
            Channel::User(UserMessage::Order(order)) => {
                println!("Order update: {} {:?}", order.id, order.order_type);
            }
            Channel::User(UserMessage::Trade(trade)) => {
                println!("Trade: {} @ {}", trade.size, trade.price);
            }
            _ => {}
        }
    }

    Ok(())
}

Auto-Ping with WebSocketBuilder

For long-running connections with automatic keep-alive:

use polyte_clob::ws::{WebSocketBuilder, Channel};
use std::time::Duration;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    let ws = WebSocketBuilder::new()
        .ping_interval(Duration::from_secs(10))
        .connect_market(vec!["asset_id".to_string()])
        .await?;

    ws.run(|msg| async move {
        println!("Received: {:?}", msg);
        Ok(())
    }).await?;

    Ok(())
}
