Usage Examples

Basic Usage 

import asyncio
from collectors import collect_market_data

async def main():
    results = await collect_market_data()
    for result in results:
        print(f"{result['provider']}: {result['success']}")

asyncio.run(main())

Collect All Data 

import asyncio
from collectors import (
    collect_market_data,
    collect_explorer_data,
    collect_news_data,
    collect_sentiment_data,
    collect_onchain_data
)

async def collect_all():
    results = await asyncio.gather(
        collect_market_data(),
        collect_explorer_data(),
        collect_news_data(),
        collect_sentiment_data(),
        collect_onchain_data()
    )
    return {
        "market": results[0],
        "explorers": results[1],
        "news": results[2],
        "sentiment": results[3],
        "onchain": results[4]
    }

data = asyncio.run(collect_all())

Individual Collector 

import asyncio
from collectors.market_data import get_coingecko_simple_price

async def get_prices():
    result = await get_coingecko_simple_price()
    if result['success']:
        data = result['data']
        print(f"BTC: ${data['bitcoin']['usd']:,.2f}")
        print(f"Staleness: {result['staleness_minutes']:.2f}m")

asyncio.run(get_prices())

Integration Points

Database Integration

Collectors can be integrated with the database module:

from database import Database
from collectors import collect_market_data

db = Database()
results = await collect_market_data()

for result in results:
    if result['success']:
        db.store_market_data(result)

Scheduler Integration

Can be scheduled for periodic collection:

from scheduler import Scheduler
from collectors import collect_all_data

scheduler = Scheduler()
scheduler.add_job(
    collect_all_data,
    trigger='interval',
    minutes=5
)

Monitoring Integration

Provides metrics for monitoring:

from monitoring import monitor
from collectors import collect_market_data

results = await collect_market_data()

for result in results:
    monitor.record_metric(
        'collector.success',
        result['success'],
        {'provider': result['provider']}
    )
    monitor.record_metric(
        'collector.response_time',
        result.get('response_time_ms', 0),
        {'provider': result['provider']}
    )

Error Handling

Error Types

  • config_error - Provider not configured
  • missing_api_key - API key required but missing
  • authentication - Invalid API key
  • rate_limit - Rate limit exceeded
  • timeout - Request timeout
  • server_error - API server error (5xx)
  • network_error - Network connectivity issue
  • api_error - API-specific error
  • exception - Unexpected Python exception

Retry Strategy

  1. Rate Limit (429): Wait retry-after + 10s, retry up to 3 times
  2. Server Error (5xx): Exponential backoff (1m, 2m, 4m), retry up to 3 times
  3. Timeout: Increase timeout by 50%, retry up to 3 times
  4. Other Errors: No retry (return immediately)
