CashX API Server

This server is created to parse the prices used originally by Bisq to fit the CashX needs.

Why Django?

Django is an easy and understandable (maybe for a few?) framework for fast building web services and pages. Although Django REST Framework exists, it is too much of a hassle to deal with.

How does it work?

It takes a request to the same endpoint that the Bisq ones use and hijacks it, then it asks for the real server and then parses it in a different way. It strips the BTC price and uses BCH as base, then it calculates how much of a BCH the other coins are and modifies the JSON that came from the real server.

How do I run it?

Clone this repo, then create a virtual environment with whatever tool you use, activate it and use

pip install -r requirements.txt

on the cloned folder. Then just use

python manage.py migrate

python manage.py runserver 8080 --noreload

and that's all. Well, if you do mind, change the secret key in cashxserver/settings.py and now it would be everything you need to do.

To do

• Make a monitoring main page for prices and requests.
• Make two modes, a Core Mode and a Sync Mode.

Nah, just use it.
