BRK Server

A crate that serves Bitcoin data and swappable front-ends, built on top of brk_indexer, brk_computer and brk_interface.

The file handler, will serve the website specified by the user if any, which can be no website, default or custom (which is a blank folder for people to experiment). If a website is specified and the server is ran outside of the brk project and thus can't find the requested website, it will download the whole project with the correct version from Github and store it in .brk to be able to serve to website. This is due to the crate size limit on crates.io and the various shenanigans that need to be done to have a website in a crate.

The API uses brk_interface and so inherites all of its features including formats.

Endpoints

API

GET /api/vecs/index-count

Get the count of all existing indexes.

GET /api/vecs/id-count

Get the count of all existing vec ids.

GET /api/vecs/vec-count

Get the count of all existing vecs.
Equals to the sum of supported Indexes of each vec id.

GET /api/vecs/indexes

Get the list of all existing indexes.

GET /api/vecs/accepted-indexes

Get an object which has all existing indexes as keys and a list of their accepted variants as values.

GET /api/vecs/ids

Get a paginated list of all existing vec ids.
There are up to 1,000 values per page.
If the page param is omitted, it will default to page 0.

GET /api/vecs/index-to-ids

Get a paginated list of all vec ids which support a given index. There are up to 1,000 values per page. If the page param is omitted, it will default to the first page.

GET /api/vecs/id-to-indexes

Get a list of all indexes supported by a given vec id. The list will be empty if the vec id isn't correct.

GET /api/vecs/{INDEX}-to-{ID}

This endpoint retrieves data based on the specified vector index and id.

Parameters:

Parameter Type Required Description
from signed int No Inclusive starting index for pagination (default is 0).
to signed int No Exclusive ending index for pagination (default is the total number of results). Overrides count
count unsigned int No The number of values requested
format string No The format of the response. Options include json, csv, tsv, or md (default is json).

Examples:

# GET /api/vecs/date-to-close
curl https://bitcoinresearchkit.org/api/vecs/date-to-close

# GET /api/vecs/date-to-close?from=-100
curl https://bitcoinresearchkit.org/api/vecs/date-to-close?from=-100

# GET /api/vecs/date-to-close?count=100&format=csv
curl https://bitcoinresearchkit.org/api/vecs/date-to-close?count=100&format=csv

GET /api/vecs/query

Get one or multiple vecs depending on given parameters. If you'd like to request multiple vec ids, simply separate them with a ','.
To get the last value set -1 to the from parameter.
The response's format will depend on the given parameters, it will be:

  • A value: If requested only one vec and the given range returns one value (for example: from=-1)
  • A list: If requested only one vec and the given range returns multiple values (for example: from=-1000&count=100 or from=-444&to=-333)
  • A matrix: When multiple vecs are requested, even if they each return one value.

Parameters:

Parameter Type Required Description
index VecIndex Yes The vector index to query.
ids VecId[] Yes A comma or space-separated list of vector IDs to retrieve.
from signed int No Inclusive starting index for pagination (default is 0).
to signed int No Exclusive ending index for pagination (default is the total number of results). Overrides count
count unsigned int No The number of values requested
format string No The format of the response. Options include json, csv, tsv, or md (default is json).

Examples:

# GET /api/vecs/query?index=date&ids=ohlc
curl https://bitcoinresearchkit.org/api/vecs/query?index=date&ids=ohlc

# GET /api/vecs/query?index=week&ids=ohlc,block-interval-average&from=0&to=20&format=md
curl https://bitcoinresearchkit.org/api/vecs/query?index=week&ids=ohlc,block-interval-average&from=0&to=20&format=md

Meta

GET /version

The version of the server and thus BRK.

Files

GET /*

Catch all.

When no pattern is found, the server will look for a match inside the folder of the chosen website, if any.
