Advanced tools
The Open Oracle Reporter makes it easy to add a price feed to your application web server.
To add the Open Oracle Reporter to your application, run:
yarn add open-oracle-reporter
You can run this reporter as a stand-alone by providing a simple JavaScript function that will pull the data for the reporter.
yarn global add open-oracle-reporter
open-oracle-reporter \
--port 3000 \
--private_key file:./private_key \
--script ./fetchPrices.js \
--kind prices \
--path /prices.json \
Or to quickly test using yarn:
yarn run start \
--private_key 0x177ee777e72b8c042e05ef41d1db0f17f1fcb0e8150b37cfad6993e4373bdf10 \
--script examples/fixed.js
Once you've installed the Open Oracle SDK, you can sign a Open Oracle feed as follows:
import {encode, sign} from 'open-oracle-reporter';
let encoded = encode('prices', Math.floor(+new Date / 1000), {'eth': 260.0, 'zrx': 0.58});
let signature = sign(encoded, '0x...');
Or sign with a remote call:
import {signWith} from 'open-oracle-reporter';
let encoded = encode('prices', Math.floor(+new Date / 1000), {'eth': 260.0, 'zrx': 0.58});
let signature = signWith(encoded, '0x...', signer);
For example, in an express app:
// See above for signing data
express.get('/prices.json', async (req, res) => {
res.json({
encoded: encoded,
signature: signature
});
});
You may also use the open oracle express adapter:
import {endpoint} from 'open-oracle-reporter';
async function fetchPrices(now) {
return [now, {'eth': 260.0, 'zrx': 0.58}];
}
app.use(endpoint('0x...', fetchPrices, 'prices', '/prices.json'));
