Quickstart

Add dependencies to Cargo.toml

[dependencies]
longbridge = "4.0.0"

Authentication

Longbridge OpenAPI supports two authentication methods:

1. OAuth 2.0 (Recommended)

OAuth 2.0 uses Bearer tokens without requiring HMAC signatures. The token is persisted automatically at ~/.longbridge/openapi/tokens/<client_id> (%USERPROFILE%\.longbridge\openapi\tokens\<client_id> on Windows) and refreshed transparently on every request.

Step 1: Register an OAuth Client

Register an OAuth client to obtain your client_id:

bash / macOS / Linux

curl -X POST https://openapi.longbridge.com/oauth2/register \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "client_name": "My Application",
    "redirect_uris": ["http://localhost:60355/callback"],
    "grant_types": ["authorization_code", "refresh_token"]
  }'

PowerShell (Windows)

Invoke-RestMethod -Method Post -Uri https://openapi.longbridge.com/oauth2/register `
  -ContentType "application/json" `
  -Body '{
    "client_name": "My Application",
    "redirect_uris": ["http://localhost:60355/callback"],
    "grant_types": ["authorization_code", "refresh_token"]
  }'

Response:

{
  "client_id": "your-client-id-here",
  "client_secret": null,
  "client_name": "My Application",
  "redirect_uris": ["http://localhost:60355/callback"]
}

Step 2: Build an OAuth handle and create Config

use std::sync::Arc;
use longbridge::{Config, oauth::OAuthBuilder};

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    // Loads an existing token from ~/.longbridge/openapi/tokens/<client_id>.
    // If none exists or it is expired, opens the browser authorization flow.
    // Token refresh is handled automatically on every subsequent request.
    let oauth = OAuthBuilder::new("your-client-id")
        // .callback_port(8080)  // optional, default 60355
        .build(|url| println!("Open this URL to authorize: {url}"))
        .await?;

    let config = Arc::new(Config::from_oauth(oauth));

    // Use config to create contexts...
    Ok(())
}

Benefits:

• No shared secret required
• No per-request signature calculation
• Token lifecycle (load, refresh, persist) managed automatically

2. Legacy API Key (Environment Variables)

For backward compatibility you can use the traditional API key method.

Setting environment variables (macOS/Linux)

export LONGBRIDGE_APP_KEY="App Key get from user center"
export LONGBRIDGE_APP_SECRET="App Secret get from user center"
export LONGBRIDGE_ACCESS_TOKEN="Access Token get from user center"

Setting environment variables (Windows)

setx LONGBRIDGE_APP_KEY "App Key get from user center"
setx LONGBRIDGE_APP_SECRET "App Secret get from user center"
setx LONGBRIDGE_ACCESS_TOKEN "Access Token get from user center"

Other environment variables

Quote API (Get basic information of securities)

Using OAuth 2.0 (Recommended):

use std::sync::Arc;
use longbridge::{Config, QuoteContext, oauth::OAuthBuilder};

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    let oauth = OAuthBuilder::new("your-client-id")
        .build(|url| println!("Open this URL to authorize: {url}"))
        .await?;
    let config = Arc::new(Config::from_oauth(oauth));

    // Create a context for quote APIs
    let (ctx, _) = QuoteContext::try_new(config).await?;

    // Get basic information of securities
    let resp = ctx
        .quote(["700.HK", "AAPL.US", "TSLA.US", "NFLX.US"])
        .await?;
    println!("{:?}", resp);

    Ok(())
}

Using legacy API key (environment variables):

use std::sync::Arc;
use longbridge::{Config, QuoteContext};

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    // Load configuration from environment variables
    let config = Arc::new(Config::from_apikey_env()?);

    // Create a context for quote APIs
    let (ctx, _) = QuoteContext::try_new(config.clone()).await?;

    // Get basic information of securities
    let resp = ctx
        .quote(["700.HK", "AAPL.US", "TSLA.US", "NFLX.US"])
        .await?;
    println!("{:?}", resp);

    Ok(())
}

Quote API (Subscribe quotes)

use std::sync::Arc;
use longbridge::{quote::SubFlags, Config, QuoteContext};

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    // Load configuration from environment variables
    let config = Arc::new(Config::from_apikey_env()?);

    // Create a context for quote APIs
    let (ctx, mut receiver) = QuoteContext::try_new(config).await?;

    // Subscribe
    ctx.subscribe(["700.HK"], SubFlags::QUOTE).await?;

    // Receive push events
    while let Some(event) = receiver.recv().await {
        println!("{:?}", event);
    }

    Ok(())
}

Trade API (Submit order)

use std::sync::Arc;
use longbridge::{
    decimal,
    trade::{OrderSide, OrderType, SubmitOrderOptions, TimeInForceType},
    Config, TradeContext,
};

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    // Load configuration from environment variables
    let config = Arc::new(Config::from_apikey_env()?);

    // Create a context for trade APIs
    let (ctx, _) = TradeContext::try_new(config).await?;

    // Submit order
    let opts = SubmitOrderOptions::new(
        "700.HK",
        OrderType::LO,
        OrderSide::Buy,
        decimal!(500),
        TimeInForceType::Day,
    )
    .submitted_price(decimal!(50i32))
    .remark("Hello from Rust SDK".to_string());

    let resp = ctx.submit_order(opts).await?;
    println!("{:?}", resp);

    Ok(())
}

Troubleshooting

• Windows setx requires a new terminal; use set for the current cmd.exe session.
• If you don't see push events, keep the process alive (receiver loop / sleep).
• For debugging, set LONGBRIDGE_LOG_PATH to enable SDK logs.
