allows to subsribe to the betfair markets, pulls prices and pushes them to 0MQ bus so client application could subsribe to the events published thru the message bus.

1. Erlsom for XML parsing
2. Detergent for SOAP interactions
3. log4erl for logging
4. mochiweb for json parsing
5. erlzmq - erlang bindings for 0MQ
6. zeromq - 0MQ

bf_gateway uses rebar for building and wraps it in a Makefile for convenience. 0MQ - is c based, you might need to install the following packages: pkg-config, autoconf, automake and libtool (if you use MacOX, I would recommend to use macports). Otherwise you might get errors during build. more details could be found here: https://lists.zeromq.org/pipermail/zeromq-dev/2010-February/002235.html

First clone from GitHub:

$ git clone git:https://github.com/romanshestakov/bf_gateway.git

Then change into the newly created directory:

$ cd bf_gateway

Add your betfair username and password into rel/files/app.config do the same in src/bf_gateway.app.src

then build release:

$ make rel

Rebar will first pull in dependencies from GitHub, attempt to build them all, then build bf_gateway.

start app with ./rel/bf_gateway/bin/bf_gateway console

if everything ok, you should see "succesfully logged to betfair"

after that you can run commands specified by betfair API e.g. bf_gateway:getMarketInfo(102873781).

1. save BFExchangeService.wsdl and BFGlobalService.wsdl from betfair website to priv
2. comment out <xsd:import namespace="https://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"/> from wsdl files, as erlsom can't parse this namespace
3. init models: Wsdl = detergent:initModel("file:https://../priv/BFGlobalService.wsdl"). Wsdl2 = detergent:initModel("file:https://../priv/BFExchangeService.wsdl").
4. generate hrl records #detergent:write_hrl(Wsdl, "BFGlobalService.hrl"). #detergent:write_hrl(Wsdl2, "BFExchangeService.hrl"). detergent:write_hrl("file:https://./priv/BFGlobalService.wsdl", "BFGlobalService.hrl", "BFG"). detergent:write_hrl("file:https://./priv/BFExchangeService.wsdl", "BFExchangeService.hrl", "BFE").
