book_offers

[Source

The book_offers method retrieves a list of Offers between two currencies, also known as an order book. The response omits unfunded Offers and reports how much of each remaining Offer's total is currently funded.

            },
            "limit": 10

The response follows the [standard format][], with a successful result containing the following fields:

Field	Type	Description
ledger_current_index	[Ledger Index][]	(Omitted if ledger_current_index is provided) The [ledger index][] of the current in-progress ledger version, which was used to retrieve this information.
ledger_index	[Ledger Index][]	(Omitted if ledger_current_index provided) The ledger index of the ledger version that was used when retrieving this data, as requested.
ledger_hash	[Hash][]	(May be omitted) The identifying hash of the ledger version that was used when retrieving this data, as requested.
offers	Array	Array of offer objects, each of which has the fields of an Offer object

In addition to the standard Offer fields, the following fields may be included in members of the offers array:

Field	Type	Description
owner_funds	String	Amount of the TakerGets currency the side placing the offer has available to be traded. (XRP is represented as drops; any other currency is represented as a decimal value.) If a trader has multiple offers in the same book, only the highest-ranked offer includes this field.
taker_gets_funded	[Currency Amount][]	(Only included in partially-funded offers) The maximum amount of currency that the taker can get, given the funding status of the offer.
taker_pays_funded	[Currency Amount][]	(Only included in partially-funded offers) The maximum amount of currency that the taker would pay, given the funding status of the offer.
quality	String	The exchange rate, as the ratio taker_pays divided by taker_gets. For fairness, offers that have the same quality are automatically taken first-in, first-out. (In other words, if multiple people offer to exchange currency at the same rate, the oldest offer is taken first.)

Possible Errors

• Any of the [universal error types][].

• invalidParams - One or more fields are specified incorrectly, or one or more required fields are missing.

• srcCurMalformed - The taker_pays field in the request is not formatted properly.

• dstAmtMalformed - The taker_gets field in the request is not formatted properly.

• srcIsrMalformed - The issuer field of the taker_pays field in the request is not valid.
