NAME

Crypto::API - Universal Plug & Play API

USAGE

This module mainly used by Inheritance

 package Exchange {
     use Moo;
     extends 'Crypto::API';
 }

You can use this module as parent and the child class can simply define the api spec.

 package foo {
    use Moo;
    extends 'Crypto::API';

    sub _build_base_url {
        URI->new('https://api.kucoin.com');
    }

    sub set_prices {{
        request => {
            method => 'get',
            path   => '/api/v1/market/stats',
            data   => {
                pair => 'symbol',
            },
        },
        response => {
            key => 'data',
            row => {
                pair       => 'symbol',
                last_price => 'last',
            },
        },
    }}
 }

The main purpose of this is to normalise the request and response for different exchanges that using this API as a standard.

So if you call price data from Binance and Kucoin or etc ...

There will be no different.

 $binance->prices(pair => 'XRP-USDC') -> getting { pair => 'XRP-USDC', last_price => 1234 };

OR

 $kucoin->prices(pair => 'XRP-USDC') -> getting { pair => 'XRP-USDC', last_price => 1234 };
