This is a client library for the Binance Alpha API, enabling developers to interact programmatically with Binance Alpha. The library provides tools to access curated early-stage token data, track Alpha project metrics and integrate discovery-focused market information into applications through the REST API:
- Supported Features
- Installation
- Documentation
- REST APIs
- Websocket Streams
- Logging
- Testing
- Contributing
- License
- REST API Endpoints:
/bapi/defi/v1/*
- WebSocket Endpoints: Real-time data streaming.
- Inclusion of test cases and examples for quick onboarding.
Enable the alpha feature in your Cargo.toml under binance-sdk:
[dependencies]
binance-sdk = { version = "1.0.0", features = ["alpha"] }In your code, import the alpha client:
use binance_sdk::alpha;- Crate documentation: docs.rs/binance_sdk
- Official Binance Alpha API docs: Binance API Documentation
All REST API endpoints are available through the rest_api module. Note that some endpoints require authentication using your Binance API credentials.
use binance_sdk::config::ConfigurationRestApi;
use binance_sdk::alpha;
let configuration = ConfigurationRestApi::builder()
.api_key("YOUR_API_KEY")
.api_secret("YOUR_SECRET_KEY")
.build()?;
let client = alpha::AlphaRestApi::production(configuration);
let response = client.get_exchange_info(params).await?;
let data = response.data().await?;
println!("{:#?}", data);The alpha module can be configured with the following options via the ConfigurationRestApi builder pattern:
timeout(u64): Request timeout in milliseconds (default: 1000)proxy(ProxyConfig): HTTP/HTTPS proxy settingshost(String): Proxy server hostname.port(u16): Proxy server port.protocol(String): Proxy protocol (http or https).auth(ProxyAuth): Proxy authentication credentials:username(String): Proxy username.password(String): Proxy password.
keep_alive(bool): Enable HTTP keep-alive (default: true)compression(bool): Enable response compression (default: true)retries(u32): Number of retry attempts for failed requests (default: 3)backoff(u64): Delay in milliseconds between retries (default: 1000)agent(HttpAgent): Custom HTTP agent for advanced TLS configurationprivate_key(PrivateKey): RSA or ED25519 private key for request signing (raw string or PEM file path)private_key_passphrase(String): Passphrase for the private key, if encrypted
Refer to the configuration for more details.
You can configure a timeout for requests in milliseconds. If the request exceeds the specified timeout, it will be aborted. See the Timeout example for detailed usage.
The REST API supports HTTP/HTTPS proxy configurations. See the Proxy example for detailed usage.
Enable HTTP keep-alive for persistent connections. See the Keep-Alive example for detailed usage.
Enable or disable response compression. See the Compression example for detailed usage.
Configure the number of retry attempts and delay in milliseconds between retries for failed requests. See the Retries example for detailed usage.
Customize the HTTPS agent for advanced TLS configurations. See the HTTPS Agent example for detailed usage.
The REST API supports key pair-based authentication for secure communication. You can use RSA or Ed25519 keys for signing requests. See the Key Pair Based Authentication example for detailed usage.
To enhance security, you can use certificate pinning with the agent option in the configuration. This ensures the client only communicates with servers using specific certificates. See the Certificate Pinning example for detailed usage.
Errors are represented by the following types:
ConnectorClientError: General client errorUnauthorizedError: Invalid or missing authenticationForbiddenError: Access to resource forbiddenTooManyRequestsError: Rate limit exceededRateLimitBanError: IP banned due to rate limitsServerError: Internal server errorNetworkError: Network connectivity issuesNotFoundError: Resource not foundBadRequestError: Invalid request parameters
See the Error Handling example for detailed usage. Refer to the error module for more information.
The WebSocket Streams provide real-time data feeds for market trades, candlesticks, and more. Use the websocket_streams module to interact with these endpoints.
use binance_sdk::config::ConfigurationWebsocketStreams;
use binance_sdk::alpha;
let configuration = ConfigurationWebsocketStreams::builder().build()?;
let client = alpha::AlphaWsStreams::production(configuration);
let connection = client.connect().await?;
let params = alpha::websocket_streams::AllBookTickerStreamParams::default();
let stream = connection.all_book_ticker_stream(params).await?;
stream.on_message(|data| {
println!("{:#?}", data);
});The alpha module can be configured with the following options via the ConfigurationWebsocketStreams builder pattern:
reconnect_delay(u64): Specify the delay between reconnection attempts in milliseconds (default: 5000)mode(WebsocketMode): Choose betweensingleandpoolconnection modesSingle: A single WebSocket connectionPool: A pool of WebSocket connections
agent(AgentConnector): Customize the WebSocket agent for advanced configurationshandshake(WebsocketHandshakeFn): Provide a custom async TLS/WebSocket handshake (e.g. to tunnel through a SOCKS5 proxy)
Refer to the configuration for more details.
Specify the delay in milliseconds between WebSocket reconnection attempts. See the Reconnect Delay example for detailed usage.
Customize the agent for advanced configurations. See the WebSocket Agent example for detailed usage.
Supply a custom async TLS/WebSocket handshake to open your own transport (such as a SOCKS5 tunnel) before the handshake completes. See the Custom Handshake example for detailed usage.
Choose between Single and Pool connection modes for WebSocket connections. The Single mode uses a single WebSocket connection, while the Pool mode uses a pool of WebSocket connections. See the Connection Mode example for detailed usage.
To enhance security, you can use certificate pinning with the agent option in the configuration. This ensures the client only communicates with servers using specific certificates. See the Certificate Pinning example for detailed usage.
You can unsubscribe from specific WebSocket streams using the unsubscribe method. This is useful for managing active subscriptions without closing the connection.
use tokio::time::{Duration, sleep};
use binance_sdk::config::ConfigurationWebsocketStreams;
use binance_sdk::alpha;
let configuration = ConfigurationWebsocketStreams::builder().build()?;
let client = alpha::AlphaWsStreams::production(configuration);
let connection = client.connect().await?;
let params = alpha::websocket_streams::AllBookTickerStreamParams::default();
let stream = connection.all_book_ticker_stream(params).await?;
stream.on_message(|data| {
println!("{:#?}", data);
});
sleep(Duration::from_secs(10)).await;
stream.unsubscribe().await;The WebSocket connection is automatically renewed for WebSocket Streams connections, before the 24 hours expiration of the API key. This ensures continuous connectivity.
This crate ships with an optional default logger that you can enable with a single call:
use binance_sdk::logger;
fn main() {
// Initialize the default logger once at the start of your application
logger::init();
// ... rest of your code
}The logger integrates with the Rust tracing ecosystem and behaves as follows:
- If another global subscriber is already set,
logger::init()is a no-op and does not override your existing logging setup. - If no subscriber is set yet, it installs the crate’s default global subscriber (with sensible defaults) so you immediately get structured logs from the connector.
To run the tests for the Alpha module:
cargo test --features alphaTests cover:
- REST API endpoint integration
- Error scenarios and edge cases
Contributions are welcome!
Since this repository contains auto-generated code, we encourage you to start by opening a GitHub issue to discuss your ideas or suggest improvements. This helps ensure that changes align with the project's goals and auto-generation processes.
To contribute:
- Open a GitHub issue describing your suggestion or the bug you've identified.
- If it's determined that changes are necessary, the maintainers will merge the changes into the main branch.
