Node Ticker - Super Simple Node.js Crypto Tracker

Super simple node.js crypto tracker app powered by CoinGecko and Eth Gas Station APIs. Customize the config.toml set the coins you want to see as well as your aave info to see the health factor!

Installation & Setup

Installation

1. Clone the repo $ gh repo clone Pandaphobic/node-crypto-ticker
2. cd into the directory $ cd node-crypto-ticker
3. Install with $ npm install

Setup

A config.toml file must be present alongside a .env in the root folder. Your .env should contain your Eth Gas Station API Key. You can setup both manually based off the examples, or you can use the configurator

Configurator

Launch the configurator with $ npm run config

This will allow you to set:

• Coins / Tokens in the Ticker
• Base currency
• Ticker Refresh Rate
• API Key if .env not present already

Modify you API Keys with $ npm run apikeys

Modify Config

• Ticker Coins: $ npm run addCoins
• Ticker Base Currency: $ npm run changeCurrency

Manual Config

Set your desired coins, currency and refresh rate by adding them to the array in the config.toml file. For AAVE, the three existing entries are the minimum requirement to get health factor. For now, you will need to update these manually.

config.toml

[ticker]
  coins = ["ethereum","litecoin","bitcoin","weth","usd-coin"]
  vsCurrency = "usd"
  refreshRate = 500

[aave]
  collateralInEth = 5
  borrowedInEth = 4
  borrowedInUsd = 8655
