I am implementing fyers websocket for tick data in the background.
How to access dict1['LTP'] outside on_ticks function when run_background = True.
I am having trouble accessing the updated dict1['LTP'] value outside the on_ticks function. This could be due to the fact that the on_ticks1 function might not have had a chance to update dict1 before trying to access it.
Can anyone explain the flow of execution in WebSocket connection when run_background = True.
Please provide some examples or sample code or modify above code for better understanding.
Yes the issue is when run_background = True, dict1 = {‘LTP’ : 0} is not getting updated. Your API has some problems in background functions. I have tried the same in different websocket(e.g. TrueData) I am able to do this simple operation.
We’re currently addressing this issue, and an updated SDK will be available soon. In the meantime, you can use the following workaround: when using the subscribe function, include the channel parameter and set its value to 15. This should resolve the problem.
