Tables Feature - Added the `create_table` method, which returns a `Table` object. This can be used to display watchlists, order windows, position windows and more. - See the new page on the docs for more information! Bugs - Fixed a bug preventing the named column of a line to not work as a label of the series. - Fixed a bug causing drawings loaded from the minute timeframe to not show on a daily timeframe. - Fixed a bug causing `chart.exit` to not work. - Fixed a bug preventing the chart from being moved after placing a ray. - Fixed the ‘price in hoveringOver’ web console error. Enhancements - The date/time column can also be the `name` of the passed series object. - Added the `label` method to `HorizontalLine`, allowing for the price line label of horizontal lines to be updated. - `None` or an empty DataFrame can now be passed to `line.set` as a means to clear it. - Seperate Chart objects will now run on the same pywebview instance. This means that any Chart objects created after the first will inherit the first Chart’s API. - Reorganized the documentation for clarity.

# Polygon.io
|
|
|
|
[Polygon.io's](https://polygon.io/?utm_source=affiliate&utm_campaign=pythonlwcharts) market data API is directly integrated within lightweight-charts-python, and is easy to use within the library.
|
|
___
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
To use data from Polygon, there are certain libraries (not listed as requirements) that must be installed:
|
|
* Static data requires the `requests` library.
|
|
* Live data requires the `websockets` library.
|
|
___
|
|
## `polygon`
|
|
`polygon` is a [Common Method](https://lightweight-charts-python.readthedocs.io/en/latest/common_methods.html), and can be accessed from within any chart type.
|
|
|
|
`chart.polygon.<method>`
|
|
|
|
The `stock`, `option`, `index`, `forex`, and `crypto` methods of `chart.polygon` have common parameters:
|
|
|
|
* `timeframe`: The timeframe to be used (`'1min'`, `'5min'`, `'H'`, `'2D'`, `'5W'` etc.)
|
|
* `start_date`: The start date given in the format `YYYY-MM-DD`.
|
|
* `end_date`: The end date given in the same format. By default this is `'now'`, which uses the time now.
|
|
* `limit`: The maximum number of base aggregates to be queried to create the aggregate results.
|
|
* `live`: When set to `True`, a websocket connection will be used to update the chart or subchart in real-time.
|
|
* These methods will also return a boolean representing whether the request was successful.
|
|
|
|
```{important}
|
|
When using live data and the standard `show` method, the `block` parameter __must__ be set to `True` in order for the data to congregate on the chart (`chart.show(block=True)`).
|
|
If `show_async` is used with live data, `block` can be either value.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
___
|
|
|
|
### Example:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
from lightweight_charts import Chart
|
|
|
|
if __name__ == '__main__':
|
|
chart = Chart()
|
|
chart.polygon.api_key('<API-KEY>')
|
|
chart.polygon.stock(
|
|
symbol='AAPL',
|
|
timeframe='5min',
|
|
start_date='2023-06-09'
|
|
)
|
|
chart.show(block=True)
|
|
```
|
|
___
|
|
|
|
### `api_key`
|
|
`key: str`
|
|
|
|
Sets the API key for the chart. Subsequent `SubChart` objects will inherit the API key given to the parent chart.
|
|
___
|
|
### `stock`
|
|
`symbol: str` | `timeframe: str` | `start_date: str` | `end_date: str` | `limit: int` | `live: bool` | `-> bool`
|
|
|
|
Requests and displays stock data pulled from Polygon.io.
|
|
___
|
|
|
|
### `option`
|
|
`symbol: str` | `timeframe: str` | `start_date: str` | `expiration` | `right: 'C' | 'P'` | `strike: int | float` | `end_date: str` | `limit: int` | `live: bool` | `-> bool`
|
|
|
|
Requests and displays option data pulled from Polygon.io.
|
|
|
|
A formatted option ticker (SPY251219C00650000) can also be given to the `symbol` parameter, allowing for `expiration`, `right`, and `strike` to be left blank.
|
|
___
|
|
|
|
### `index`
|
|
`symbol: str` | `timeframe: str` | `start_date: str` | `end_date: str` | `limit: int` | `live: bool` | `-> bool`
|
|
|
|
Requests and displays index data pulled from Polygon.io.
|
|
|
|
___
|
|
|
|
### `forex`
|
|
`fiat_pair: str` | `timeframe: str` | `start_date: str` | `end_date: str` | `limit: int` | `live: bool` | `-> bool`
|
|
|
|
Requests and displays a forex pair pulled from Polygon.io.
|
|
|
|
The two currencies should be separated by a '-' (`USD-CAD`, `GBP-JPY`, etc.).
|
|
|
|
___
|
|
|
|
### `crypto`
|
|
`crypto_pair: str` | `timeframe: str` | `start_date: str` | `end_date: str` | `limit: int` | `live: bool` | `-> bool`
|
|
|
|
Requests and displays a crypto pair pulled from Polygon.io.
|
|
|
|
The two currencies should be separated by a '-' (`BTC-USD`, `ETH-BTC`, etc.).
|
|
|
|
___
|
|
|
|
### `log`
|
|
`info: bool`
|
|
|
|
If `True`, informational log messages (connection, subscriptions etc.) will be displayed in the console.
|
|
|
|
Data errors will always be shown in the console.
|
|

## PolygonChart
|
|
|
|
`api_key: str` | `live: bool` | `num_bars: int`
|
|
|
|
The `PolygonChart` provides an easy and complete way to use the Polygon.io API within lightweight-charts-python.
|
|
|
|
This object requires the `requests` library for static data, and the `websockets` library for live data.
|
|
|
|
All data is requested within the chart window through searching and selectors.
|
|
|
|
As well as the parameters from the [Chart](https://lightweight-charts-python.readthedocs.io/en/latest/charts.html#chart) object, PolygonChart also has the parameters:
|
|
|
|
* `api_key`: The user's Polygon.io API key.
|
|
* `num_bars`: The target number of bars to be displayed on the chart
|
|
* `limit`: The maximum number of base aggregates to be queried to create the aggregate results.
|
|
* `end_date`: The end date of the time window.
|
|
* `timeframe_options`: The selectors to be included within the timeframe selector.
|
|
* `security_options`: The selectors to be included within the security selector.
|
|
* `live`: If True, the chart will update in real-time.
|
|
___
|
|
|
|
### Example:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
from lightweight_charts import PolygonChart
|
|
|
|
if __name__ == '__main__':
|
|
chart = PolygonChart(api_key='<API-KEY>',
|
|
num_bars=200,
|
|
limit=5000,
|
|
live=True)
|
|
chart.show(block=True)
|
|
```
