## Highlights
- Public market data: server time, pairs, ticker, all tickers, summaries, order book, trades, OHLC, and price increments.
- Private account data: account info, balances, transactions, and trade history.
- Spot trading: buy, sell, cancel, cancel by client order ID, cancel all, and deadman countdown.
- Funding: withdrawal fee lookup, crypto withdrawal, and withdrawal callback validation server.
- Real-time streams: ticker, trades, order book, summary, and private order updates.
- Paper trading: risk-free simulated trading with balances, orders, fills, history, and status.
- Price alerts: threshold and percentage alerts with one-shot checks or live WebSocket monitoring.
- Automation-friendly output: human tables by default, JSON envelopes with `-o json`.
- Credential resolution: CLI flags, environment variables, or `~/.config/indodax/config.toml`.
- Agent support: MCP server mode with guarded dangerous operations.
## Recent Highlights (v0.1.49)
- **MCP server overhaul**: Alert tools, deposit address, auth configuration, WebSocket snapshot tools, Resources, and Prompts support.
- WebSocket reliability overhaul: application-level pings, automatic reconnection with exponential backoff, and private WebSocket support for real-time order and balance updates.
- Secure WebSocket authentication: configurable WebSocket tokens with fallback to a stable default.
- TradeAPI-2 compliance: normalized symbol formats and stricter request handling across commands.
- Response parsing improvements: order book handling supports both legacy and modern API shapes.
## Installation
Install from source:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/ibidathoillah/indodax-cli.git
cd indodax-cli
cargo install --path .
```
Install from crates.io:
```bash
cargo install indodax-cli
```
Install from npm:
```bash
npm install -g indodax-cli
```
On Android/Termux, `npm install -g indodax-cli` downloads the Android release binary when available. If the release asset is missing, it falls back to a local `cargo build`, so `cargo` still needs to be installed in Termux for that fallback path.
Run with Docker:
```bash
docker run --rm ibidathoillah/indodax-cli --help
docker run --rm -v ~/.config/indodax:/root/.config/indodax ibidathoillah/indodax-cli balance
```
Run from the checkout:
```bash
cargo build
./target/debug/indodax --help
```
## Quick Start
Market data does not require credentials:
```bash
indodax server-time
indodax ticker btc/idr
indodax orderbook btc/idr --count 10
indodax pairs
indodax ohlc --pair btc/idr
indodax -o json ticker btc/idr
```
Configure private API credentials:
```bash
indodax auth set --api-key YOUR_API_KEY --api-secret YOUR_API_SECRET
indodax auth test
indodax auth show
```
Or use environment variables:
```bash
export INDODAX_API_KEY=your_api_key
export INDODAX_API_SECRET=your_api_secret
```
Credential priority:
1. `--api-key` and `--api-secret`
2. `INDODAX_API_KEY` and `INDODAX_API_SECRET`
3. `~/.config/indodax/config.toml`

```bash
indodax mcp
indodax mcp -s all
indodax mcp -s all --allow-dangerous
indodax mcp -s market,trade,paper
```
Service groups:
| `market` | Server time, ticker, pairs, orderbook, trades, OHLC, price increments, WS snapshots | No | No |
| `account` | Balance, trade history, transactions, account info, open orders, order history, get order | Yes | No |
| `trade` | Buy, sell, cancel, cancel all orders | Yes | Yes |
| `funding` | Withdraw fees, withdraw crypto, deposit address | Yes | Yes |
| `paper` | Paper trading init, balance, buy, sell, orders, cancel, fill, history, status | No | No |
| `auth` | Show config, test credentials, set credentials | Varies | No |
| `alert` | Add, list, cancel, check price alerts | No | No |
By default, `trade` and `funding` MCP tools require `acknowledged: true`. Use `--allow-dangerous` only for controlled local automation.
#### MCP Resources
The server exposes read-only resources that MCP clients can inspect:
| `config://current` | Current API configuration status |
| `pairs://list` | All available trading pairs from the API |
| `paper://state` | Current paper trading state (balances, orders count) |
#### MCP Prompts
Pre-built prompt templates for common workflows:
| `create_order` | `side`, `pair`, `price`, `amount`, `idr` | Generate buy/sell order with safety checks |
| `check_portfolio` | (none) | Account balance and open orders overview |
| `analyze_market` | `pair` | Market analysis with ticker, order book, and trades |
### Glama Deployment
This server is optimized for deployment on [Glama](https://glama.ai/mcp).
- **Manifest**: `glama.json` defines the required environment variables for the build spec.
- **Docker**: The included `Dockerfile` builds only the CLI, MCP, and callback-server features, installs the `indodax-cli` binary, and also exposes an `indodax` alias for clients that use the shorter command name.
- **Environment Variables**: Configure `INDODAX_API_KEY` and `INDODAX_API_SECRET` in the Glama admin panel.
Use this Glama build spec:
```json
{
"baseImage": "debian:trixie-slim",
"buildSteps": [
"apt-get update && apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends ca-certificates curl git pkg-config build-essential && rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*",
"curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh -s -- -y",
". $HOME/.cargo/env && cargo build --release --features cli,mcp,server",
"cp target/release/indodax-cli /usr/local/bin/indodax-cli && ln -s /usr/local/bin/indodax-cli /usr/local/bin/indodax"
],
"cmdArguments": [
"mcp-proxy",
"--",
"indodax-cli",
"mcp"
],
"nodeVersion": "26",
"pythonVersion": "3.14"
}
```
If Glama fails while loading Docker metadata, such as `ECONNRESET` during `load metadata for docker.io/library/debian:trixie-slim`, retry the build. That failure happens before this project is cloned or compiled.
Example configuration for manual setup:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"indodax": {
"command": "indodax",
"args": ["mcp", "-s", "all"]
}
}
}
```
## Output Formats
Table mode is the default:
```bash
indodax ticker btc/idr
```
JSON mode is intended for scripting and automation:
```bash
indodax -o json ticker btc/idr
```
Error responses in JSON mode use structured envelopes:
```json
{
"error": true,
"message": "Invalid trading pair: xxx_idr",
"error_type": "invalid_pair",
"retryable": false
}
```
## E2E Testing
The repository includes live API smoke tests:
```bash
./scripts/e2e_minimal.sh --public
./scripts/e2e_minimal.sh --private
./scripts/e2e_minimal.sh --ws
./scripts/e2e_websocket_mock.sh
```
Environment knobs:
```bash
INDODAX_BIN=./target/debug/indodax
```
Latest local verification:
```text
cargo test: 296 passed
./scripts/e2e_minimal.sh --public: passed
./scripts/e2e_minimal.sh --private: skipped private checks (credentials unavailable)
./scripts/e2e_minimal.sh --ws: passed
```
## API Coverage
- Public REST: Indodax market endpoints
- Private REST: Indodax TradeAPI and TradeAPI-2 endpoints
- Public WebSocket: `wss://ws3.indodax.com/ws/`
- Private WebSocket: `wss://pws.indodax.com/ws/`
## Architecture
This project is inspired by the Kraken CLI architecture and built with modern Rust:
- `clap` for derive-based CLI parsing
- `tokio` for async runtime
- `tokio-tungstenite` for WebSocket streams
- `reqwest` for REST API calls
- `serde` for serialization and deserialization
- `comfy-table` for terminal tables
- `rmcp` for Model Context Protocol support
## Testing Standards
Every release should pass:
- Unit tests with `cargo test`
- Public E2E smoke tests
- WebSocket smoke tests
- Private read-only tests when credentials are available
Coverage is maintained across `auth`, `client`, `config`, `errors`, `commands`, `mcp`, and `output` modules.
## Security
- Credentials are stored with `0600` permissions when using `indodax auth set`.
- HMAC-SHA512 signing is used for private API authentication.
- Prefer read-only API keys for account inspection and WebSocket monitoring.
- Use least-privilege exchange API keys for MCP and automation.
- Never commit real API keys, secrets, callback tokens, or listen keys.
## Development
```bash
cargo fmt
cargo test
cargo build
```
