Background

GoCryptoTrader utilises gRPC for client/server interaction. Authentication is done by a self signed TLS cert, which only supports connections from localhost and also through basic authorisation specified by the users config file.

GoCryptoTrader also supports a gRPC JSON proxy service for applications which can be toggled on or off depending on the users preference.

Installation

GoCryptoTrader requires a local installation of the Google protocol buffers compiler protoc v3.0.0 or above. Please install this via your local package manager or by downloading one of the releases from the official repository:

protoc releases

Then use go install to download the following packages:

go install \
    github.com/grpc-ecosystem/grpc-gateway/v2/protoc-gen-grpc-gateway \
    github.com/grpc-ecosystem/grpc-gateway/v2/protoc-gen-openapiv2 \
    google.golang.org/protobuf/cmd/protoc-gen-go \
    google.golang.org/grpc/cmd/protoc-gen-go-grpc

This will place the following binaries in your $GOBIN;

  • protoc-gen-grpc-gateway
  • protoc-gen-openapiv2
  • protoc-gen-go
  • protoc-gen-go-grpc

Make sure that your $GOBIN is in your $PATH.

Linux / macOS / Windows

GoCryptoTrader requires a local installation of the buf cli tool that tries to make Protobuf handling more easier and reliable, after installation you'll need to run:

buf mod update

buf generate

If any changes were made, ensure that the rpc.proto file is formatted correctly by using buf format -w
