# hived
`hived` is the second version of my personal cryptocurrency server.
hived is currently using redis as its DB because its tiny and fast.
It sends notifications through telegram.
Currently it has 4 endpoint:
### /price
Lets you ask for the price of the currency. You can determine the currency the value is returned in.
### /pair
Takes in a pair of currencies and a multiplier. Determines and returns the ratio.
### /addalert
Takes in a name and a math expression containing the names of the currencies. Checks the expression periodically. Sends a message over telegram when the expression holds true.
The expression's result must be boolean. As an example:
```Go
ETH*50>50000.
ETH*60/(DOGE*300000) < 4.
```
You can have as many parameters as you like. The requests for the crypto prices are all turned into individual goroutines so it's fast.
The expression evaluation is powered by [govaluate](https://github.com/Knetic/govaluate). So for a set of rules and what you can and cannot do please check the documentation over there.
### /ex
Gets the list of currencies that are available to be traded.
You can check under `./test` for some examples of curl commands.
## How to Run
Before you can run this, you need a [telegram bot token](https://core.telegram.org/bots#6-botfather) and a [changelly](https://changelly.com/) API key.
The keys are put in files and then given to Docker as secrets.The docker entrypoint script then exports these as environment variables.
```sh
TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN="my-telegram-bot-api-key"
```
And
```sh
CHANGELLY_API_KEY:"my-changelly-api-key"
```
And
```sh
CHANGELLY_API_SECRET:"my-changelly-api-secret"
```
If you want to use docker-compose, it's as simple as running `docker-compose up`. You just need to provide the files. You can check the file names in the docker-compose file.
Both the server itself and the redis image are alpine-based so they're pretty small.
