ByBit Official API documentation

Libraries for connecting to the Bybit API. https://github.com/bybit-exchange/bybit-official-api-docs

Changes to ByBit official C# examples

• Replaced NewtonSoft.Json for System.Text.Json
• Removed all un-necessary API and models
• Coverted over Client to apply authentication and signature at API run-time. See: https://github.com/bybit-exchange/bybit-official-api-docs/blob/master/en/rest_api_sign.md#authentication
• Added signature algorythm
• Changed API requests to return base model, which includes full response message. See: https://github.com/bybit-exchange/bybit-official-api-docs/blob/master/en/rest_api_sign.md#response-messages

Features added

• Ability to ladder orders based on a starting price, end price and the number of rungs.
• Ability to generate a linear order for each rung of the ladder.
• Ability to specify the total quantity to use in ladder.
• Ability to ladder any available currency.

Logging

By default the application logs information levels. The application also provides the ability to log to a file and the console. To adjust the logging level, edit the application appsettings.json file, setting the "rules" minLevel as appropriate.

For example, the following rule will set the file logging level to "Debug":

        "rules": [
            {
                "logger": "*",
                "minLevel": "Debug",
                "writeTo": "logToFile"
            },

Log levels

The log levels, in descending order, are as follows:

Level	Typical Use
Fatal	Something bad happened; application may crash
Error	Something failed; application may or may not continue
Warn	Something unexpected; application will continue
Info	Normal behavior like API key retrieved, order made, etc.
Debug	For debugging; activities such as executed order, etc.
Trace	For trace debugging; begin method X, end method X

There is one more level, Off. Since it is the highest value and is not used for entries, it disables logging when used as the minimum log level.
