kws.connect() Does not yield any results

puru129

I am new to the kite.dev forum and coding in general.. I tried following the exact steps and resolved bugs in the way, thanks to this forum only.. But after everything is done, I am not getting any data after executing kws.connect(), I am also not getting any error. I am trying during the market hours only.

Pls help

Are you sure about using the correct instrument_token to subscribe for the websocket feed?
Here is a WebSocket usage example for the Python client.

@rakeshr I am using the exact same code mentioned in the link. The instrument token would be of reliance if I understood correctly

@rakeshr I am using the instrument_token 738561

Am I doing something wrong?

rakeshr

The instrument token is correct. Can you paste here your websocket code? I will take a look.

Thanks for your response, @rakeshr. My code is as below



from kiteconnect import KiteConnect
from kiteconnect import KiteTicker
import logging

api_key = ''
api_secret = ''
kite = KiteConnect(api_key)
kite.login_url()
request_token = ''
kite.generate_session(request_token, api_secret)
access_token = ''
public_token = ''

# Websocket code below

kws = KiteTicker(api_key, access_token)

def on_ticks(ws, ticks):
logging.debug("Ticks: {}".format(ticks))

def on_connect(ws, response):
ws.subscribe([1304833]) # Zomato
ws.set_mode(ws.MODE_FULL, [1304833])

def on_close(ws, code, reason):
ws.stop()

kws.on_ticks = on_ticks
kws.on_connect = on_connect
kws.on_close = on_close

kws.connect()

Hi @rakeshr sorry to bother you again, but this is a blocker in my learning process. Pls help

Hi @rakeshr

Solved the problem. Made 3 changes, not sure what exactly worked:

- uninstalled and re-installed websocket library
- Added this to the code:

logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)

- Added this also to the code:

kite.set_access_token('my_access_token')

rakeshr

logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)

You will need to enable/set debug level logging as you are logging ticks here logging.debug("Ticks: {}".format(ticks)). You won't need to, if you direct print the ticks, print(ticks).

kite.set_access_token('my_access_token')

I have edited out your publically posted access_token. Avoid posting any account-related credentials, as it can lead to compromise. Access token need to be set to make API or WebSocket connection. This documentation explains login flow in detail.

Thanks @rakeshr I took care of it in the earlier post, but somehow made the mistake in my later post.
