NAME

WebService::Cryptsy - implementation of www.cryptsy.com API

SYNOPSIS

use WebService::Cryptsy;
use Data::Dumper;

my $cryp = WebService::Cryptsy->new(
    public_key  => 'YOUR PUBLICE KEY',
    private_key => 'YOUR PRIVATE KEY',
);

    or die "Error: " . $cryp->error;


$cryp = WebService::Cryptsy->new; # no need for keys for some methods
my $data = $cryp->marketdatav2
    or die "Error: $cryp";  # error checking and using interpolation
                            # to get the error message

printf "%s: %f\n", @{ $data->{markets}{$_} }{qw/label  lasttradeprice/}
    for sort keys %{ $data->{markets} };

MAINTENANCE NOTE

NOTE: this module has not been keeping up with Cryptsy's API updates since Feb 4, 2014. Reason being is that I don't personally use this module and the person I wrote it for might not be using it any more either. But if you do use this module and need it updated, just submit a bug report (patches are also welcome!).

DESCRIPTION

This module implements the www.cryptsy.com API whose description is available here: https://www.cryptsy.com/pages/api

INSTALLATION NOTES

Depending on your configuration, you might need to install

cpan LWP::Protocol::https  Net::SSLeay

Or some such, to make LWP::UserAgent work over HTTPS, as that's what Cryptsy's API requires.

GETTING API KEY

To use this module, you'll need to obtain the API key from www.cryptsy.com. Once logged in, go to account settings page and scroll all the way to the bottom. Click the Generate New Key button to generate new key.

IMPORTANT!!! Ensure to toggle the "API Disabled" button into the "on" position, otherwise your API will be off and this module will give a confusing error message.

CONSTRUCTOR

new

my $cryp = WebService::Cryptsy->new(
    public_key  => 'YOUR PUBLIC  KEY',
    private_key => 'YOUR PRIVATE KEY',
    timeout     => 30,
);

# or if you're only going to use the public methods:
my $cryp = WebService::Cryptsy->new;

Creates and returns a new WebService::Cryptsy object. Takes three optional arguments as key/value pairs. The public_key and private_key are optional only for the Public Methods of the API. They both are required for calling the Authenticated Methods. To obtain your keys, see the "GETTING API KEY" section above.

public_key

my $cryp = WebService::Cryptsy->new(
    public_key  => '479c5eee116f8f5972bdaf12dd0a3f82562c8a7c',
    private_key => 'b408e899526142eee13304669a657c8782435ccda2f65dbea05270fe8dfa5d3d2ef7eb4812ce1c35',
);

This is the key from the Public Key box on Cryptsy's settings page.

private_key

my $cryp = WebService::Cryptsy->new(
    public_key  => '479c5eee116f8f5972bdaf12dd0a3f82562c8a7c',
    private_key => 'b408e899526142eee13304669a657c8782435ccda2f65dbea05270fe8dfa5d3d2ef7eb4812ce1c35',
);

This is the key from the Private Key box on Cryptsy's settings page.

timeout

my $cryp = WebService::Cryptsy->new(
    timeout => 30,
);

Optional. Specifies the timeout, in seconds, of the API requests. Default: 60

MODULE METHODS / OVERLOADS

error

# these two are equivalent
my $data = $cryp->marketdata
    or die "Error: $cryp";


my $data = $cryp->marketdata
    or die "Error: " . $cryp->error;

The API methods will return undef or an empty list, depending on the context, and the human-readable error will be available using the ->error method. This method is overloaded for object interpolation, thus you can simply interpolate the object in a string to get the error message.

timeout

printf "Current API request timeout is %d\n", $cryp->timeout;

$cryp->timeout( 30 );

Gets/sets the timeout constructor's argument. Takes one optional argument that specifies the new timeout in seconds. Returns the current timeout in seconds.

GENERAL CONVENTION FOR API METHODS

All methods are named exactly the same as in Cryptsy's API. If the API method takes any arguments, you'd supply them to the method, in the same order (e.g. $cryp->mytrades( $market_id, $limit );)

PUBLIC API METHODS

These methods do not require API keys.

marketdata

my $data = $cryp->marketdata
    or die "Error: $cryp";

NOTE: this API call doesn't seem to be listed on Cryptsy's site any more. You're likely supposed to use marketdatav2 instead.

NOTE: sometimes this call takes forever to complete.

General Market Data (All Markets): (OLD METHOD). Takes no arguments. On failure returns undef or an empty list, depending on the context, and sets ->error to the error message. On success returns a data structure that looks something like this:

allmyorders

my $data = $cryp->allmyorders
    or die "Error: $cryp";

Outputs: Array of all open orders for your account. Takes no arguments. On failure returns undef or an empty list, depending on the context, and sets ->error to the error message. On success returns a data structure. Since I don't actually use Cryptsy, I've no transactions and can't see what structure the method returns. If you can, please dump it and submit it as a bug report. My best guess is it returns an arrayref of hashrefs, and according to Cryptsy's API, the meaning of the keys in each hashref is:

createorder

my $order_id = $cryp->createorder(
    $marketid,   # Market ID for which you are creating an order for
    $ordertype,  # Order type you are creating (Buy/Sell)
    $quantity,   # Amount of units you are buying/selling in this order
    $price,      # Price per unit you are buying/selling at
) or die "Error: $cryp";

Takes four mandatory arguments that are (in order): market id, order type (Buy or Sell), quantity, price. On failure returns undef or an empty list, depending on the context, and sets ->error to the error message. On success returns the order ID.

cancelorder

$cryp->cancelorder( $order_id )
    or die "Error: $cryp";

Takes one mandatory argument, which is the order ID of the order you wish to cancel. On failure returns undef or an empty list, depending on the context, and sets ->error to the error message. On success returns a true value.

cancelmarketorders

my $market_id = 68; #  CSC/BTC market
my $data = $cryp->cancelmarketorders( $market_id )
    or die "Error: $cryp";

Cancel all open orders in the market. Takes one mandatory argument, which is the market ID. On failure returns undef or an empty list, depending on the context, and sets ->error to the error message. According to the API docs, on success returns an arrayref that contains "return information on each order cancelled." I don't have the means to create/cancel orders; if you can dump the returned data structure and submit it to me via a bug report, it would be appreciated. It is likely the return is a hashref with a single key return whose value is an arrayref.

cancelallorders

my $data = $cryp->cancelallorders
    or die "Error: $cryp";

Outputs: Array of all open orders for your account. Takes no arguments. On failure returns undef or an empty list, depending on the context, and sets ->error to the error message. According to the API docs, on success returns an arrayref that contains "return information on each order cancelled." I don't have the means to create/cancel orders; if you can dump the returned data structure and submit it to me via a bug report, it would be appreciated. It is likely the return is a hashref with a single key return whose value is an arrayref.

calculatefees

my $data = $cryp->calculatefees(
    $ordertype,  # Order type you are calculating for (Buy/Sell)
    $quantity,   # Amount of units you are buying/selling
    $price,      # Price per unit you are buying/selling at
) or die "Error: $cryp";

Takes three mandatory arguments that are (in order): order type (Buy or Sell), quantity, price. On failure returns undef or an empty list, depending on the context, and sets ->error to the error message. On success returns a data structure that looks like this:

{
    'fee' => '11.94000000',
    'net' => '3968.06000000'
}

And according to Cryptsy's API, the meaning of the keys in the hashref is:

generatenewaddress

my $address = $cryp->generatenewaddress(
    3,      # Currency ID for the coin you want to
            # generate a new address for (ie. 3 = BitCoin)
    'BTC',  # Currency Code for the coin you want to generate a new
            # address for (ie. BTC = BitCoin)
) or die "Error: $cryp";

my $address = $cryp->generatenewaddress( 3 )
    or die "Error: $cryp";

my $address = $cryp->generatenewaddress( undef, 'BTC' )
    or die "Error: $cryp";

Takes two optional arguments, but at least one of them must be provided. The first argument is the currency ID, the second is the currency code. If you're providing the currency code but wish not to provide the currency ID, then provide currency ID as undef. On failure returns undef or an empty list, depending on the context, and sets ->error to the error message. On success returns a data structure that looks something like this:

{
    'address' => '16zJ1sR9RBEsWsAzy8uZYM2Lr65691kwqD'
};
