Read crypto prices from Coinbase and Kraken

Put crypto pairs' closes, live prices, quotes and trades into your deployment's lake from Coinbase or Kraken, and read them from any plugin entitled to them. You need chart 0.1.538 and CLI 0.1.60.

Coinbase and Kraken

  1. Launch it. Install the plugin from Browse, or with meridian plugin install, and approve its data role. It asks for storage for its raw responses, and no key.
  2. License its datasets on the deployment's Data sources page: <instance>:daily, <instance>:live and <instance>:trades, each listed with the terms the exchange's standard terms impose. Confirm or change each with a note.
  3. Entitle each plugin that reads them, and set the priority where another plugin also records the same pairs' closes.

An agent you delegate to reads the plugin's pages through its tools, read_connection and read_datasets.

Read them

A plugin holding reporting, portfolio, signal or ems reads prices with list_prices; signal and ems read trades and quotes with list_trades and list_quotes. A page showing them live uses live values.

On a development deployment, each plugin's Sample data setting answers from made-up data instead of the venue.
