ValrApi

The Valr API gem allows you to interact with the VALR cryptocurrency exchange API from your Ruby applications.

Installation

Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:

bundle add valr_api

Or add the following to your Gemfile:

gem 'valr_api', '~> 0.2.1'

Then execute:

bundle install

If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:

gem install valr_api

Usage

Before using the gem, you need to initialize a client with your VALR API key and secret.

client = ValrApi::Client.new("your_api_key", "your_api_secret")

Sending Requests

After initializing the client, you can send GET, POST, and DELETE requests to the VALR API. I am still working on allowing requests to the websocket API.

Here are some sample requests:

# GET request
response = client.get("/public/currencies")

# POST request
response = client.post("/orders/limit", {
  "side": "SELL",
  "quantity": "0.100000",
  "price": "10000",
  "pair": "BTCZAR",
  "postOnly": true,
  "customerOrderId": "1235"
})

# DELETE request
response = client.delete("/orders/order")

Check if a request was successful (assuming you have assigned the response to a variable called response):

response.success?

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake test to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install.
