Kraken-Proxy

Kraken REST API Documentation

A proxy server that handles the authentication mechanism when calling Kraken REST APIs. It will-

• Add API-Key header
• Generate and add nonce in payload
• Generate and add API-Sign header

By default, this proxy only executes requests for Kraken Private APIs. This can be changed to execute all requests from config.json file.

Configuration

Filename: config.json

Allowed host: api.kraken.com

Allowed path prefix: /0/private/

{
    "KrakenApiKey": "",
    "KrakenPrivateKey": "",
    "Host": "",
    "Port": "",
    "EnableOtherRequest": false
}

Field	Description
KrakenApiKey	API key for Kraken
KrakenPrivateKey	Secret Key for Kraken
Host	Host address for running the proxy server
Port	Port for running the proxy server
EnableOtherRequest	Proxy for all destination addresses

When EnableOtherRequest is enabled, the proxy will execute all proxy request, but will only add authentication and authorization when the target host is Kraken.

Running the proxy without the configuration file, the application will panic and emit an example configuration file.
