cryptohopper

Official Ruby SDK for the Cryptohopper API.

Status: 0.1.0.pre.alpha.1 — full coverage of all 18 public API domains from day one. Matches the feature surface of @cryptohopper/sdk, cryptohopper (Python), and cryptohopper-go-sdk at v0.4.0.

Install

bundle add cryptohopper

Or, in your Gemfile:

gem "cryptohopper"

Requires Ruby 3.2+.

Quickstart

require "cryptohopper"

ch = Cryptohopper::Client.new(api_key: ENV.fetch("CRYPTOHOPPER_TOKEN"))

me = ch.user.get
puts me["email"]

ticker = ch.exchange.ticker(exchange: "binance", market: "BTC/USDT")
puts ticker["last"]

Authentication

Cryptohopper uses OAuth2 bearer tokens:

Sign in at cryptohopper.com → developer dashboard.
Create an OAuth application — you'll receive a client_id and client_secret.
Drive the OAuth consent flow to receive a 40-character bearer token.

ch = Cryptohopper::Client.new(
  api_key: ENV.fetch("CRYPTOHOPPER_TOKEN"),
  app_key: ENV["CRYPTOHOPPER_CLIENT_ID"], # optional, sent as x-api-app-key
)

Resources

# User

Client options

Option	Default	Description
`api_key:`	— (required)	OAuth2 bearer token
`app_key:`	`nil`	Optional OAuth `client_id`, sent as `x-api-app-key`
`base_url:`	`https://api.cryptohopper.com/v1`	Override for staging
`timeout:`	`30`	Per-request timeout in seconds
`max_retries:`	`3`	Retries on HTTP 429 (respects `Retry-After`). `0` disables auto-retry.
`user_agent:`	`nil`	Appended after `cryptohopper-sdk-ruby/<version>`

Errors

Every non-2xx response becomes a Cryptohopper::Error:

begin
  ch.user.get
rescue Cryptohopper::Error => e
  puts e.code              # "UNAUTHORIZED" | "FORBIDDEN" | "RATE_LIMITED" | ...
  puts e.status            # HTTP status
  puts e.server_code       # numeric server code, if any
  puts e.ip_address        # client IP the server saw (helps debug IP whitelist)
  puts e.retry_after_ms    # ms to wait on 429
end

Codes: UNAUTHORIZED, FORBIDDEN, NOT_FOUND, RATE_LIMITED, VALIDATION_ERROR, DEVICE_UNAUTHORIZED, SERVER_ERROR, NETWORK_ERROR, TIMEOUT, UNKNOWN. Unknown server-side codes pass through verbatim.

Rate limiting

The server enforces three buckets:

normal — 30 requests/minute
order — 8 orders per 8-second window
backtest — 1 request per 2 seconds

On HTTP 429 the SDK retries with exponential backoff up to max_retries (default 3), respecting Retry-After. Pass max_retries: 0 to disable auto-retry and handle 429s yourself.

Development

bundle install
bundle exec rspec
bundle exec rubocop

Release

Push a rb-v<version> git tag. The release workflow runs the test suite, verifies tag-version parity, builds the gem, and publishes to RubyGems via Trusted Publishing (OIDC) — no long-lived API keys stored.
