The recent_trades_stream WebSocket always returns the trade inside a list, even though there is only one trade every time. This makes the code harder to use because I have to loop or index the list just to get one dictionary.
Example of recent trades stream (from documentation):
{
"topic": "publicTrade.BTCUSDT",
"type": "snapshot",
"ts": 1672304486868,
"data": [
{
"T": 1672304486865,
"s": "BTCUSDT",
"S": "Buy",
"v": "0.001",
"p": "16578.50",
"L": "PlusTick",
"i": "20f43950-d8dd-5b31-9112-a178eb6023af",
"BT": false,
"seq": 1783284617
}
]
}
I always have to do:
trade = message["data"][0]
Example of ticker data (from the documentation):
{
"topic": "tickers.BTCUSDT",
"type": "snapshot",
"data": {
"symbol": "BTCUSDT",
"lastPrice": "66666.60",
"markPrice": "66666.60",
"indexPrice": "115418.19",
"bid1Price": "66666.60",
"ask1Price": "66666.70"
}
}
Ticker data is a dictionary, so I can access it directly:
message["data"]["lastPrice"]
Request
It would be nice if PyBit could unwrap the list for recent trades or provide an option, so it works more like ticker data and is easier to access.
Thanks.
