Kani Bot - v1.11.0 Update - Market order fill notifications

This feature had been on my pending list for a very long time. Today I happened to allocate some time for this and completed this feature. I was initially thinking of streaming blocks to get that information. If I had to do that, it can be a tricky thing to implement. Steem Engine and Hive Engine provides an API that has the information about who bought and sold the tokens. I'm using that API to get the information and send notifications.

As part of this release, I have added the below notifications to the bot.

• When a buy order is filled out in the market
• When a sell order is filled out in the market

The above screen show is the reference to how the notification will look like when someone is placing a buy order. It works in the same way for a sell order as well. There will first be a notification about placing the order and whenever the order gets filled up, there will be another notification about the same.

I have implemented this to both Steem Engine as well as Hive Engine. The notifications will be smooth as long as the API is intact and working fine. We keep having issues with Steem Engine and Hive Engine APIs now and then. Last time when there was an issue, I reached out to their discord server and it was fixed after a few hours. But before that, it took nearly a day to fix the issue. So, the notification is purely based on the availability of their API.

In the last release I mentioned that I would be introducing some splinterlands related notifications to the bot but I guess it will take some more time. I'm planning to focus next on do some dCity notifications. This is one of the fast-growing games on the Hive ecosystem. I already did some exploration on how to achieve certain things, so, I'm going to focus some more time on getting some notifications set.
