About

node-kraken-api is a typed REST/WS Node.JS client for the Kraken cryptocurrency exchange.
This is an unofficial API. Please refer to the official documentation for up-to-date information.

REST API Docs: kraken.com/features/api
WebSocket API Docs: docs.kraken.com/websockets

Features

  • Fully typed REST and WS responses and options.
    • REST methods/comments are generated from the official OpenAPI specifications file.
    • WS methods/comments are sourced from the official WebSockets 1.8.3 documentation.
    • Note:
      • All named response properties are optional and nullable unless explicitly marked required in the documentation.
  • RetrieveExport (binary endpoint); see the example.
  • Full WS orderbook mirroring and checksum validation.
CHANGELOG Synopsis Usage Code

MIGRATION FROM 0.4.1:

The entire project has been completely rewritten using TypeScript and many features have changed.

If you're upgrading, please review the changes and upgrade guide below.

Added

  • Complete WS 1.8.3 functionality
  • Typings
  • New REST methods

Deprecated

  • Custom response parsing (Settings.parse, Settings.dataFormatter)
    • To ensure type consistency, it is best to leave parsing to the user.
    • Used only for the deprecated .call() function.
  • Method name settings (Settings.pubMethods, Settings.privMethods)
    • Previously, settings were used to differentiate between public and private methods rather than requiring the user to specify for each call.
    • Instead, named requests are provided to hard-code these differences.
    • Used only for the deprecated .call() function.
  • .call()
    • Replaced by .request() and the named REST methods.

Removed

  • Ratelimiting (Settings.limiter and Settings.tier)
    • The aim of this API is to maximize clear and accurate communication with the server; ratelimiting makes assumptions about the client setup and should be left to the user.
  • REST retries (Settings.retryCt)
    • This was originally included due to the occasional nonce and timeout error.
      • To reduce this possibility, increase your API key nonce window and the .timeout setting.
  • REST syncing (Settings.syncIntervals)
    • With the introduction of the WebSocket connection, REST syncing is no longer required for many data sources.
      • For all other sources, simply use an asynchronous loop.
  • Server Settings (Settings.hostname, Settings.version)
    • These values should be constants.
  • OTP value setting (Settings.otp and .setOTP())
    • Replaced by Settings.genotp
  • Direct construction using module.exports()
    • Changed to class export for modern standards.

Changed

  • Errors have changed to named classes. Please review the synopsis.

Upgrade Guide

  1. Replace all calls to .call() with the corresponding named method or .request().
    • Make sure to view the expected response types; they have changed since 0.4.1.
  2. Replace all sync instances with an async loop that requests every few seconds.
    • If you are syncing one of the endpoints provided by WS, use that instead.
  3. Ensure that your REST calls are not being made too quickly.
    • Ratelimiting has been removed; you may encounter server errors if you were relying on the limiter.
    • See the rate limits documentation.
  4. Increase your api key nonce window if you're getting invalid nonce errors.
    • Calls may now be performed concurrently (global queueing is removed).
  5. Remove calls to .setOTP() and Settings.otp; provide .genotp in the settings.
  6. Review the error classes; if you were parsing errors you will need to update your catch statements.
    • Note: calls are no longer automatically retried retryCt times.
  7. If you're constructing using module.exports (e.g. const kraken = require('node-kraken-api')({...})), you will need to use the module.exports.Kraken class instead: import { Kraken } from "node-kraken-api"; const kraken = new Kraken({...});

MIGRATION FROM 1.0.0:

Minor changes to the Emitter class.

Changed

  • Kraken.Emitter moved to its own package and improved; filters now pass on type assertion result to listeners.
    • This changed the signature for event filtering:
      • (...args: <type>[]) => boolean -> (args: [<type>, <type>, ...]) => args is [<subtype>, <subtype>, ...]

Removed

  • Kraken.Emitter

Usage

Integration

npm i --save node-kraken-api
import { Kraken } from "node-kraken-api";

Settings

new Kraken({
  /** REST API key. */
  key?: string;
  /** REST API secret. */
  secret?: string;
  /** REST API OTP generator. */
  genotp?: () => string;
  /**
   * Nonce generator (the default is ms time with an incrementation guarantee).
   * Note: Some other APIs use a spoofed microsecond time. If you are using an
   *       API key used by one of those APIs then you will need to use a custom
   *       nonce generator (e.g. () => Date.now() * 1000). See _GENNONCE for the
   *       default generation logic.
   */
  gennonce?: () => number;
  /** Connection timeout (default 1000). */
  timeout?: number;
});

REST API

Public

const kraken = new Kraken();

const { unixtime } = await kraken.time();
const { XXBT }     = await kraken.assets();
const ticker       = await kraken.ticker({ pair: "XXBTZUSD" })

Private

const kraken = new Kraken({ key: "...", secret: "..." });

const { txid } = await kraken.addOrder({
  pair:      "XXBTZUSD",
  type:      "buy",
  ordertype: "limit",
  price:     "65432.1",
  volume:    "1",
});

If your key requires an OTP, provide a generator:

const kraken = new Kraken({ key: "...", secret: "...", genotp: () => "..." });

RetrieveExport is the only method that promises a buffer:

const kraken = new Kraken({ key: "...", secret: "..." });

const buf = await kraken.retrieveExport({ id: "FOOB" })
fs.writeFileSync("report.zip", buf)

WebSockets

  • All WebSocket subscriptions and requests are located within .ws.
    • .ws.pub and .ws.priv provides ping, heartbeat, systemStatus, and general error monitoring.
  • Automatically connects to the socket when server data is requested.
    • See Kraken.WS.Connection.open() and Kraken.WS.Connection.close() for manual connection management.
  • Subscription methods return a Kraken.Subscriber object that manages subscriptions for a given name and options.

Public

const kraken = new Kraken();

const trade = await kraken.ws.trade()
  .on('update', (update, pair)  => console.log(update, pair))
  .on('status', (status)        => console.log(status))
  .on('error',  (error, pair)   => console.log(error, pair))
  // .subscribe() never rejects! rely on the 'error' and 'status' events
  .subscribe('XBT/USD')

const book100 = await kraken.ws.book({depth: 100})
  // live book construction from "snapshot", "ask", and "bid" events.
  .on("mirror", (mirror, pair) => console.log(mirror, pair))
  .on("error",  (error,  pair) => console.log(error,  pair))
  // resubscribes if there is a checksum validation issue (emits statuses).
  .on("status", (status)       => console.log(status)
  .subscribe("XBT/USD", "ETH/USD"); // subscribe to multiple pairs at once

// unsubscribe from one or more subscriptions
// .unsubscribe() never rejects! rely on the 'error' and 'status' events
await book100.unsubscribe('XBT/ETH');

Private

const kraken = new Kraken({ key: "...", secret: "..." });

const { token } = await kraken.getWebSocketsToken();

const orders = kraken.ws.openOrders({ token: token! })
  .on("update", (update, sequence) => console.log(update, sequence))
  .subscribe();

await orders.unsubscribe();

// The token does not expire while the subscription is active, but if you wish
// to resubscribe after unsubscribing you may need to call .ws.openOrders() again.

Testing

Testing is performed by @jpcx/testts.

To run tests:

  • Save an auth.json file with your key and secret: { key: string, secret: string }
    • Please ensure that this key has readonly permissions.
  • Run npm test in the main directory.

Development

Contribution is welcome! Given the amount of typings in this project, there may be discrepancies so please raise an issue or create a pull request.

Also, I am US-based and can't access the futures API; if you have access and want to contribute let me know!
