Calamari

Minimal and elegant async REST API client for Kraken

Calamari is a REST API client for Kraken.

Quickstart

The API client comes in two flavors: PublicApiClient and PrivateApiClient. The former has access to the public methods only, the latter to all endpoints. This is enforced at compile-time, as all the endpoints are defined statically in the traits PublicEndpoints and PrivateEndpoints.

use calamari::{PublicApiClient, PublicEndpoints};

// Note: to run this example you will need to add Tokio to your dependencies:
// tokio = { version = "1.0", features = ["macros", "rt-multi-thread"] }

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
    let client = PublicApiClient::default();
    println!("Server time: {}", client.time().await.unwrap());
    println!("System status: {}", client.system_status().await.unwrap());
    println!("Ticker: {}", client.ticker("pair=XBTUSD".into()).await.unwrap());
}

Each endpoint accepts either zero arguments or a single argument containing all the request parameters in urlencode format. All endpoints return a String containing the JSON response from the server, leaving the user with complete freedom in how they want to handle it.

A PrivateApiClient can be instantiated directly, or created from an existing PublicApiClient by supplying the API credentials with the set_credentials method.

use calamari::{ApiCredentials, PrivateApiClient, PublicEndpoints, PrivateEndpoints};

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
    let credentials = ApiCredentials::new(
        "YOUR_API_KEY".into(),
        "YOUR_API_SECRET".into(),
    );
    let client = PrivateApiClient::default_with_credentials(credentials);
    // Alternatively, if `client` is already a `PublicApiClient`:
    // let client = client.set_credentials(credentials);

    println!("Server time: {}", client.time().await.unwrap());
    println!("System status: {}", client.system_status().await.unwrap());
    println!("Ticker: {}", client.ticker("pair=XBTUSD".into()).await.unwrap());

    println!("Account balance: {}", client.balance().await.unwrap());
    println!("Open orders: {}", client.open_orders("trades=true".into()).await.unwrap());
}
