I am using 3.1.0 java client. It is breaking on calling "getInstruments()" . It was working fine until now. On further inspecting, java client is expecting content-type='csv' but API is not returning the required content type. Please check.
@sujith 1] When using Python api [ kite.instruments(exchange=None) ] , does the command return "instruments' list file" in ".csv" format or an unknown file format with csv compatible data in it ? 2] Does the api returns data or a gzipped file gets downloaded on pc?? [ This stands crucial for full fledged automation !!]
Note :: A sample would be highly beneficial to further write the code!!!!
The content type is text/csv and the data file is also .csv If you send header Accept-Encoding gzip then the server will send you a gzipped file. If you are using a standard browser then the browser will uncompress and give you back the file in the original format. If you are doing curl or HTTP then it depends on your library, it will return the compressed file or uncompressed file.
@sujith Thanks but what happens in case of Python api with command as below; Assume inst_lst is a list in python then; inst_lst = kite.instruments(exchange=None)
1] A file named inst_lst.csv gets downloaded or else what??
Hi bsarvate, Saw your post on 18Feb2020 about instruments list error when below api in python is used viz. instruments_list = kite.instruments(exchange=kite.EXCHANGE_NSE)
As suggested by @Sujith its a list of dict. Am developing a "Python code" for self and in need of the same. Can you share a sample of it?
