Scala REST client API for the Questrade trading platform http://www.questrade.com/api/documentation
TODO: Show what the library does as concisely as possible, developers should be able to figure out how your project solves their problem by looking at the code example. Make sure the API you are showing off is obvious, and that your code is short and concise.
After searching around for a Java/Scala client adapter for the Questrade API it became apparent that one did not exist yet. While there were projects in Python12, Node.js3 and Ruby4, I was not able to locate a Java/Scala based solution. This project exists to provide a Scala language client for the Questrade API, to enable AKKA and Play based projects.
This package currently includes the following features:
- Wrappers for all Account calls
- Error handling and logging
- Wrappers for all Market calls
- Wrappers for all Order calls
- Deploy the library to Maven Central
- Streaming quotes
- OAuth 2.0 API requests via HTTPS (TLS)
- Automatically request new access tokens via refresh tokens when necessary
To check your version of Java, open the terminal and type:
java -version
If you don't have version 1.8 you can download Java here
Install Scala, either by installing an IDE (such as IntelliJ), or Scala's build tool (sbt).
See https://www.scala-lang.org/download/2.12.3.html for full details.
Set up a practice account to play around:
http://www.questrade.com/api/free-practice-account
Login with it at:
https://practicelogin.questrade.com/Signin.aspx?ReturnUrl=%2fAPIAccess%2fUserApps.aspx
Register a practice app (give it all permissions, this is a test account)
Generate a new device authorization token, you'll need that! It's considered a "refresh" token. After being used once, it's good no more, but you will get a new refresh token in the response.
git clone git@github.com:elcurto99/scala-questrade.git- IntelliJ IDEA > File > New > Project from Existing Sources...
- Open the directory we just checked out
- Import Project from SBT
- Create project from existing sources
- Click Next through the setup modal to finish the setup
Update the value for questrade.api.refreshToken in /test/resources/application.conf with your own freshly generated practice account refresh token.
Navigate to the projects directory in a Terminal
cd ~/scala-questrade/
Run the tests from sbt
sbt test

To include this as a dependency in a SBT project:
Add this build.properties file to your /project/ directory.
sbt.version = 0.13.16
Add this Build.scala field to your /project/ directory.
import sbt._
object MyBuild extends Build {
lazy val root = Project("root", file(".")) dependsOn(apiClient)
lazy val apiClient = RootProject(uri("git://github.com/elcurto99/scala-questrade.git#master"))
}
Now we can use the API client as a dependency in our project:
import elcurto99.scalaquestrade.QuestradeClient
object Test extends App {
val apiClient = new QuestradeClient()
val login = apiClient.login("https://practicelogin.questrade.com/", "AbCdefGhIjKlmnoPQrStUvwXYzOP1234567890")
val accounts = apiClient.getAccounts(login.access_token, login.api_server)
}
