Install, initialize, and use the aionmarket-sdk Python package.
The aionmarket-sdk package wraps the REST API with an authenticated client for agent management, market discovery, wallet credential setup, trading, order management, and redemption.
All SDK methods map closely to REST endpoints in the API Reference.
SDK source code:
https://github.com/aionmarket/aion-sdk
The current SDK focuses on:
- Agent registration and authentication
- Market search, briefing, and context lookup
- Wallet credential registration and validation
- Trading, order inspection, cancellation, and redemption
The SDK requires your API key and automatically sends Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY on every authenticated request. If api_key is missing or
invalid, requests fail with 401.
Installation
Install from PyPI:
pip install aionmarket-sdk
Install from source:
git clone https://github.com/aionmarket/aion-sdk.git
cd aionmarket-sdk
pip install -e .
Initialization
Use environment variables (recommended):
export AIONMARKET_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"
export AIONMARKET_BASE_URL="https://www.aionmarket.com/bvapi" # optional override
Initialize from environment:
from aionmarket_sdk import AionMarketClient
client = AionMarketClient()
Pass API key directly:
from aionmarket_sdk import AionMarketClient
client = AionMarketClient(api_key="YOUR_API_KEY")
Pass API key plus explicit base URL:
from aionmarket_sdk import AionMarketClient
client = AionMarketClient(
api_key="YOUR_API_KEY",
base_url="https://www.aionmarket.com/bvapi",
)
Quick example
Find markets, check context, and prepare trade execution:
from aionmarket_sdk import AionMarketClient
client = AionMarketClient(
api_key="YOUR_API_KEY",
base_url="https://www.aionmarket.com/bvapi",
)
wallet = "0xYOUR_WALLET"
markets = client.get_markets(q="bitcoin", limit=5, venue="polymarket")
if markets:
market_id = markets[0]["id"]
context = client.get_market_context(
market_id=market_id,
venue="polymarket",
user=wallet,
my_probability=0.62,
)
print("market:", markets[0].get("title"))
print("warnings:", context.get("warnings", []))
# Build a real EIP712 signed order payload before calling client.trade(...)
For full order execution flow, see /essentials/trading-guide.
Data classes
The SDK currently returns Python dictionaries/lists with type hints (not runtime dataclass objects).
Market
Typical market fields:
market["id"]
market["title"]
market["question"]
market["category"]
market["bestBid"]
market["bestAsk"]
market["volume24hr"]
market["active"]
Trade Result
Typical trade response fields:
result["success"]
result["orderId"]
result["status"]
result["walletAddress"]
result["signatureType"]
Position
Position fields from GET /markets/current-positions depend on backend response shape. Typical fields include market ID, side/outcome, size, pricing, and PnL-related values.

Error Handling
from aionmarket_sdk import AionMarketClient, ApiError
client = AionMarketClient(api_key="YOUR_API_KEY", base_url="https://www.aionmarket.com/bvapi")
try:
result = client.get_me()
print(result)
except ApiError as e:
print(f"API error: {e.message}")
print(f"status_code: {e.status_code}")
print(f"code: {e.code}")
Common failure patterns:
401: invalid/missing API key (Authorization header issue)
400: payload or parameter mismatch
429: rate limit
500: server-side error
