MtGox/API/HTTP

2012-03-31T19:26:19Z

Shtylman: /* Node.js */

Two versions of the HTTP API are currently available, see the following pages for details on the methods available for each:

* [[MtGox/API/HTTP/v0|Version 0]]
* [[MtGox/API/HTTP/v1|Version 1]]

== Summary ==

All HTTP API requests are sent to URLs beginning with <nowiki>https://mtgox.com/api/*</nowiki>. It allows placing orders, performing withdrawls, deposits, and other things. All responses are in [http://json.org/ JSON] format.

There is a [https://rubygems.org/gems/mtgox Ruby gem], [https://rubygems.org/gems/guten-mtgox guten-mtgox] and a [[Finance::MtGox|Perl module]] available for interacting with the HTTP API.

== Cache ==

All API methods are cached for 10 seconds. Do not request results more often than that, you might be blocked by the anti-DDoS filters.

== Authentication ==

Authentication is performed by signing each request using HMAC-SHA512. The request must contain an extra value "nonce" which must be an always incrementing numeric value. A reference implementation is provided here:

Warning : the API is no more accepting authentication by login/pass ( since 2012 march 1 ) , you _need_ to use an API key.

=== PHP ===
<source lang="php">
<?php

function mtgox_query($path, array $req = array()) {
// API settings
$key = '';
$secret = '';

// generate a nonce as microtime, with as-string handling to avoid problems with 32bits systems
$mt = explode(' ', microtime());
$req['nonce'] = $mt[1].substr($mt[0], 2, 6);

// generate the POST data string
$post_data = http_build_query($req, '', '&');

// generate the extra headers
$headers = array(
'Rest-Key: '.$key,
'Rest-Sign: '.base64_encode(hash_hmac('sha512', $post_data, base64_decode($secret), true)),
);

// our curl handle (initialize if required)
static $ch = null;
if (is_null($ch)) {
$ch = curl_init();

$dec = json_decode($res, true);
if (!$dec) throw new Exception('Invalid data received, please make sure connection is working and requested API exists');
return $dec;
}

// example 1: get infos about the account, plus the list of rights we have access to
var_dump(mtgox_query('0/info.php'));

Buying bitcoins

Physical Bitcoins are bearer tokens that have an embedded redeemable digital bitcoin value if torn open. While they are somewhat expensive if bought purely for the digital bitcoins, they are relatively easy to get, because they can be purchased with PayPal or credit card - payment methods not typically not accepted for pure digital bitcoin purchases.
