Contributing
Bug reports and pull requests are welcome. This project is intended to be a safe, welcoming space for collaboration, and contributors are expected to adhere to the Contributor Covenant code of conduct.
Adding an exchange
- Add a new driver (see the examples)
- Add the driver alphabetically to drivers/index.js
- Add a new fixture (use the record option of the CLI 'tickers' command)
Single API calls are highly preferred.
When adding an exchange be aware of the base and quote.
A driver should at least support base, quote, close and baseVolume or quoteVolume. And optionally open, high, low, ask, bid, baseName, baseReference, quoteName and quoteReference.
Listing requirements
Note that all exchanges will be reviewed by our team to see if it meets our standards before we merge a pull request. We'll evaluate several aspects, including trading volume, web and social presence, traffic, and reviews. (Spot trading and trading activity are required; futures and derivatives are not supported yet.)
Please send your listing request to [email protected], and include your daily trading volume and a link to your platform. We will then review your exchange ASAP.
