Kucoin Connector

This is a websocket server that connects to the Kucoin exchange API. This server subscribes to the ticker and kline (candles) endpoint.

Getting Started

Prerequisite:

• Go

Start the server. Default port is 3000.

go run main.go

Websocket endpoint:

ws://localhost:3000/ws

You can subscribe to 2 topics: ticker and kline. Send the following JSON to the server:

Subscribe to ticker topic

{"type": "ticker"}

Subscribe to kline topic

{"type": "kline"}

Start a subscriber client for testing

Go to the clients directory:

# Run a Kline subscriber client
go run klinesubscriber.go

# Run a Ticker subscriber client
go run tickersubscriber.go

Notes

1. Sometimes it takes a few seconds to start the server because the server needs to fetch the symbols list, and the kucoin REST API can be a bit unstable at times.
2. Takes a bit of time for the Kline sub to start streaming data because the server needs to subscribe to all of the topics (1000+ topics)
