tdex-feeder

Feeder allows to connect several price feeds to TDex Daemon(s) in order to automatically update the markets prices.

Overview

tdex-feeder connects to exchanges and forwards market(s) price feeds to some tdex-daemon(s) by consuming its UpdateMarketPrice RPC. tdex-schema

Download the latest release for MacOS or Linux
Move the feeder into a folder in your PATH (eg. /usr/local/bin) and rename the feeder as feederd
Give executable permissions. (eg. chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/feederd)
Create config.json file.

Run

# Run with default config and default flags.
$ feederd

# Run with debug mode and different config path.
$ FEEDER_CONFIG_PATH=./config.json feederd

🖥 Local Development

Below is a list of commands you will probably find useful.

Build and Run with docker

Build and use feederd with docker.

Build feederd docker image

At the root of the repository

docker build --pull --rm -f 'Dockerfile' -t feederd:latest .

Run the daemon

Create a config.json file and run the following command in the same folder:

docker run -it --name feederd -v $HOME/config.json:/config.json --network="host" feederd

the $HOME/config.json is the path to the feederd configuration file.

--net=host in case you're running tdex-deamon locally

Build it yourself

Build feeder as static binary and run the project with default configuration.

# build feeder as a static binary
$ make build

# run the binary on Linux
$ ./build/feederd-linux-amd64

# run the binary on MacOS
$ ./build/feederd-darwin-amd64

Config file

Rename the file ./config.example.json into ./config.json and adapt if for your specific purpose. The default example uses kraken as price feeder and forwards the feeds related to the BTC/USDT market to a local daemon (with mac auth disabled).
