First request with Python

List your own copiers to check connectivity and identity without creating a terminal or placing a trade.

1. Install

Requires Python 3.10+. These instructions build from source; they do not assume a registry release exists.

git clone https://github.com/MetaRPC/PyCopier.git
cd PyCopier
python -m venv .venv
# Activate .venv for your shell, then:
python -m pip install -e .

Activate the virtual environment before installing or running examples.

2. Set your owner key

export MRPC_API_KEY='your-owner-key'

$env:MRPC_API_KEY = 'your-owner-key'

Use the real owner API key, not a broker password, terminal ID or TRIAL. Read authentication if access is refused.

3. Run

python examples/list.py

Source: examples/list.py.

import asyncio
import os
from pycopier import CopierService

async def main():
    service = CopierService("copy.mrpc.pro:443", os.environ["MRPC_API_KEY"])
    try:
        result = await service.list()
        if not result.ok:
            raise RuntimeError(result.error)
        for copier in result.copiers:
            print(copier.id, copier.paused)
    finally:
        await service.close()

if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.run(main())

A successful empty list means this owner has no copiers. Treat failed requests as errors, not empty accounts.

4. Prepare a demo workflow

Read the lifecycle guide, then choose sizing. Existing replication examples under examples/ are advanced integration examples: they may provision accounts and trade. Inspect them and their cleanup before running with disposable demos. List is the default starting point.
