Adding Cryptocurrency Functionality to Node Package

Open blaney83 opened this issue 7 years ago • 4 comments

Is anybody working on integrating Cryptocurrency functionality? I know that it is (or was) supported in the Python RH repository (https://github.com/mstrum/robinhood-python). However, I haven't been able to find any Node packages/Forks/Repositories that currently support Crypto in javaScript.

Since Python is not my strong suit, I haven't been able to locate the endpoints that he is using for his cryptocurrency requests. If this functionality interests anybody else, I would love to share ideas and help work on integrating it into this node package.

Some things that I have noticed:

  1. Mstrum's Python repository (link above) hasn't been updated in a couple months since the RH authentication endpoint changed. I know that there are multiple references to using an outside endpoint to access coin_quotes in this article (https://www.reddit.com/r/algotrading/comments/7vqxv5/robinhoods_crypto_and_unofficial_api/) and in this issue (https://github.com/Jamonek/Robinhood/issues/73) but I'm not sure if the change in authentication procedure made these endpoints unusable (I'm not very good with Python).

  2. Mstrum's Python repo was forked and the new OAuth procedure was integrated in Jamonek's repo (link above), but the crypto functionality was not ported over.

Would love any ideas, leads, tips, criticism or feedback. Thanks!

I am open to contribution since I am also looking for crypto trading through this API. But I would like to know the review latency since I dont want to wait for months to get the contribution reviewed.

@aybhalala I can review whenever really, so shouldn't take long. If you're going to contribute often I can make you a collaborator after your first couple of contributions if you'd like

@blaney83 @aybhalala @sfshaider @aurbano PR is currently open with some crypto functionality: https://github.com/aurbano/robinhood-node/pull/125#issue-570759178

Trying to get visibility on this since I’m interested as well.
