CI crates.io docs.rs MSRV: Rust 1.95.0 license: MIT-0 v20 operations: 32/32 typed Offline tests: 78 passed locally Practice probes: 3 passed on 2026-09-25 Practice observations: recorded October 2026

An async, provider-native Rust client for the OANDA REST-v20 API. The Cargo package and import name are oanda-client and oanda_client; -rs belongs to the repository name. This is an independent, unofficial client, unaffiliated with OANDA. It is designed as an inner provider client that SharurPlatform can later consume through its own adapter. The adapter is outside this repository.

The project is licensed under MIT No Attribution (MIT-0). The minimum supported Rust version is 1.95.0.

Version 1 follows Semantic Versioning. Public API changes that require downstream source changes will be released under a new major version; additive APIs and fixes use minor and patch releases. Provider contract changes can still require callers to update operational behavior, so review the changelog before upgrading and keep recovery around ambiguous money-moving outcomes.

Status

The six OANDA v20 endpoint pages and their linked definitions, reviewed on 2026-09-25, are the contract authority. The pinned official OpenAPI revision is a cross-check; documented differences are recorded rather than silently adopting older operations.

Capability Current surface
Documented operations 32/32 callable: 32 REST methods and 2 HTTP streams
Documented definitions 168/168 typed contracts
Variants 503 scalar enum values and 55 tagged order, request, and transaction variants tested locally
Environments Paired Practice and Live REST and stream hosts
Runtime and credentials Caller-owned Tokio runtime and injected bearer token
Authenticated validation Three read-only Practice probes and one temporary limit-order creation/cancellation probe passed on 2026-09-25; no Live environment testing

The exhaustive coverage ledger names each operation and definition, its source URL, public method or type, and local test. The coverage notes explain the website/OpenAPI differences, the offline CI check, and the rejection-evidence contract. The LAW-INVARIANT audit records the semantic review of fabricated fallbacks and swallowed failures, with a disposition for every candidate.

Installation

cargo add oanda-client@1

Or add the current major release directly:

[dependencies]
oanda-client = "1"

The complete public API is available on docs.rs.

The crate uses Rust edition 2024 and exposes capability modules for accounts, orders, trades, positions, transactions, pricing, instruments, transport, and primitives.

Quick start

The caller obtains and stores the token. The library does not read .env files or discover credentials from ambient process state.

use oanda_client::{AccountID, Client, Environment};

#[tokio::main(flavor = "current_thread")]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    let token = std::env::var("OANDA_TOKEN")?;
    let account = AccountID::new(std::env::var("OANDA_ACCOUNT_ID")?)?;
    let client = Client::builder(Environment::Practice, token).build()?;
    let summary = client.account_summary(&account).await?;
    println!("request ID: {:?}", summary.request_id);
    println!("last transaction: {:?}", summary.last_transaction_id);
    Ok(())
}

This is the runnable read-only Practice example. With those two environment variables set, run cargo run --example practice_account. Select Environment::Live only after validating the application and its account reconciliation flow.

API and transport

  • Account details, summary, instruments, configuration, and changes are available alongside order, trade, position, transaction, candle, and pricing methods. Responses include typed provider fields, typed rejection bodies, request IDs, and pagination metadata where documented.
  • A definitive rejection reports only what OANDA sent. Its code and message are None when OANDA supplied no readable reason, and its typed body is a Supplied<T> that separates a body OANDA did not send from one that arrived and could not be decoded. The client never invents a reason. Upgrading from an earlier build: Rejected::message and Error::Provider::message are now Option<String>, Rejected::body is Supplied<R>, and acknowledge_reconciliation returns Result — match arms and acknowledgement call sites need updating. A response's request_id and next_page are likewise Supplied: Undecoded means OANDA offered a value this client could not read, which is a different fact from no value being offered.
  • Prices, units, balances, and other financial values use exact rust_decimal::Decimal values parsed from OANDA decimal strings. Price-bucket liquidity also accepts JSON numbers exactly. Required and optional financial fields reject nonrepresentable coefficient/scale values during deserialization rather than rounding them. Provider IDs and timestamps have dedicated types.
  • REST response bodies are bounded. Clients built with the same Admission owner share local rate admission and provider cooldown, which honours both Retry-After forms RFC 9110 defines. Clones also share that owner. Requests are single-attempt; a mutation is never automatically retried.
  • An ambiguous mutation fences further mutations for its account across client clones. Read OANDA account and transaction state before calling acknowledge_reconciliation, which reports whether it released the fence.
  • Pricing and transaction streams use HTTP/1.1, including when a consumer enables HTTP/2 on reqwest through Cargo feature unification. REST protocol negotiation is independent. The streams are incremental and newline-delimited, with typed heartbeats. Records are bounded individually by a local hostile-input limit of 1 MiB, and the buffered backlog by a local cap of 16 MiB that ends the generation explicitly rather than evicting records already accepted. HTTP chunk segmentation is a transport read, not a provider record boundary, so a large chunk carrying many valid records is processed in order rather than rejected, and buffered records are never evicted for a slow caller. Malformed or oversized records, timeouts, and connection loss end that stream generation and require caller-owned recovery. The library does not reconnect or maintain account and price projections.
  • OANDA's pricing stream is sampled at most four prices per second per instrument. It does not carry every price update.

Read SECURITY.md before handling credentials or mutations. The behaviour guide explains OANDA and SDK behaviour that matters when wrapping this client: account modes, limits, stream recovery, closes and stated PnL.

Optional exit reserve

The outer wrapper opts in and sizes the reserve for its workload. The default is zero. ClientBuilder::exit_reserve(R) sets the initial policy for a private owner; Client::set_exit_reserve(R) or Admission::set_exit_reserve(R) replaces it at runtime, and zero releases the reserve. It keeps R requests inside the local 120-request rolling one-second REST window: ordinary requests enter below 120 - R, and eligible exits enter below 120. R must be less than 120. OANDA's Development Guide states a hard 120 REST requests/s limit per requesting IP; its Best Practices separately recommend 100 requests/s on an established connection. The owner admits the full documented limit; a caller can choose additional pacing when following that recommendation.

Operation Admission
cancel_order, close_trade, close_position Can consume reserved request capacity
Reads, placement, replacement, account configuration and other REST mutations Ordinary capacity
All REST requests Same aggregate window and provider cooldown across clients sharing an owner
Stream starts Independent of the REST window; require an active stream lease and connector admission

For example, a wrapper can pass its chosen reserve when constructing its shared client:

use oanda_client::{Client, Environment, Result};

fn configured_client(token: String, reserve_requests: u32) -> Result<Client> {
    Client::builder(Environment::Practice, token)
        .exit_reserve(reserve_requests)
        .build()
}

fn update_reserve(client: &Client) -> Result<()> {
    let reads = client.clone();
    reads.set_exit_reserve(40)?;
    client.set_exit_reserve(0)?;
    Ok(())
}

The configuration and runtime changes are exercised by the credential-free configuration example: cargo run --example exit_reserve. The example's number is illustrative, not a sizing recommendation. Share clones for reads and exits. To share admission across separately built credentials using the same caller-selected egress scope, pass one credential-free owner to both builders:

use oanda_client::{Admission, Client, Environment, Result};

fn two_clients(first_token: String, second_token: String) -> Result<(Client, Client, Admission)> {
    let owner = Admission::with_exit_reserve(40)?;
    let first = Client::builder(Environment::Practice, first_token)
        .admission(owner.clone())
        .build()?;
    let second = Client::builder(Environment::Practice, second_token)
        .admission(owner.clone())
        .build()?;
    Ok((first, second, owner))
}

An explicit builder reserve must equal the injected owner's current reserve or construction fails; omitting it preserves that policy and all spent capacity. One outer coordinator owns this shared policy: serialized updates replace the previous value, with the last update winning; they are not additive leases or promised permits. Every REST admission attempt reads the current policy. A change wakes waiting reads so they can reconsider capacity immediately. Changes never refund requests, reset timestamps, clear cooldowns or revoke admitted attempts. Raising the reserve after the aggregate budget is spent creates no new exit capacity; releasing it restores ordinary access only to unspent capacity. Each owner also shares 20 active or opening stream leases, following the Development Guide's per-IP stream limit. There is no extra stream-start gap and streams do not consume REST request capacity. Dropping or canceling a stream releases its lease. Independently constructed owners and separate processes do not share these counters; the caller chooses which traffic shares an egress scope.

Both REST and stream transports use one owner-scoped connector-start budget: at most two connector invocations begin in any rolling second. The budget records each start without waiting for the connection to complete; failure or cancellation after a start does not refund it. Cancellation before a start consumes none. Reusing an established HTTP connection does not enter the gate. OANDA's Development Guide limits new connections to 2/s; the Best Practices page also recommends 2/s. This is local pacing of connector operations, not a hard limit on raw TCP attempts: DNS address fallback and connection racing inside a connector can make more than one attempt. REST admission occurs before any connector wait, so it does not claim exact wire-arrival pacing or prevent every possible HTTP 429. The caller remains responsible for coordinating other processes and traffic on the same egress address.

[!IMPORTANT] This is finite shared capacity, not an exclusive or unlimited Flatten allowance. Provider cooldown, the aggregate limit, account reconciliation fences and in-flight mutation exclusion still apply to exits. A mutation refused by local request-budget admission returns Error::RateLimited immediately without a wire attempt. An admitted mutation may wait for bounded transport establishment, then makes one send with no automatic retry. An uncertain post-send result fences that account until caller-acknowledged reconciliation. Reads and stream starts can wait for connector capacity. Stream leases and connector pacing are shared only within one owner. Trading state, reserve sizing, account selection and recovery remain the outer wrapper's work.

Testing status

The badges distinguish deterministic test results, documented API coverage, and dated Practice observations. The successful CI run on 2026-10-15 at commit 4f2109b passed 78 Rust tests and left 3 live probes ignored. The current local suite passes 78 credential-free Rust tests with 3 live probes ignored. The static test-count badge records the local suite; it is not a count of operations or authenticated venue tests.

Evidence Verified scope Result and date
Credential-free Rust tests Unit and synthetic loopback tests, including the checks below 78 passed locally on 2026-10-15; 3 live probes ignored. The linked 2026-10-15 CI run passed the same 78 tests.
Coverage ledger 32 REST operations, 2 streams and 168 named definitions 32/32 operations and 168/168 definitions marked tested by the offline ledger check in that run
Authenticated read-only Practice probes Account list and summary, EUR/USD pricing, and one record from each stream 3 passed on 2026-09-25, as recorded in the probe notes
Practice observations while building an integration Order fills in both account modes, stream open behaviour and timing, transaction-stream fill and replace events, P/L precision Recorded October 2026 with per-fact source tags in the behaviour guide; small-sample observations, untested on Live
One-off Practice mutation probe One-unit EUR/USD limit-order creation, pending state and cancellation, with stream updates Passed on 2026-09-25; temporary probe source removed
Live environment Authenticated Live requests and trading Not tested

The deterministic tests exercise these SDK behaviors without credentials:

Behavior Evidence
REST success and rejection contracts Operation matrix: method, path, query, headers and mutation bodies for all 32 REST operations
Provider definitions and variants Definition fixtures, scalar enums and tagged variants: 168 definitions, 503 enum values and 55 tagged variants
Financial precision Decimal fixtures: exact strings and numeric liquidity, with nonrepresentable values refused
Stream delivery and failure Client contract tests and stream unit tests: fragmentation, heartbeats, malformed and oversized records, backlog bounds and HTTP/1.1
Exit reserve and runtime changes Client contract tests and client unit tests: shared-clone admission, cancel/trade-close/position-close capacity, runtime replacement and release, spent capacity and provider cooldown
Cross-client transport admission Admission scope tests and admission unit tests: different credentials share stream leases, connector pacing and cooldown; established socket reuse, cancellation and independent owners
Mutation uncertainty and rejection evidence Client contract tests: single-attempt exits, account fences after ambiguous replies or timeouts, and supplied versus absent or undecodable provider evidence

These local checks do not extend the dated Practice results to all operations, runtime reserve changes, or Live trading. The SDK leaves account projections, reconciliation decisions and stream recovery to its caller.

Normal CI needs no OANDA credentials. It runs formatting, Clippy, tests, documentation, package verification, dependency and license checks, full-history secret scanning, and the offline coverage check on Rust 1.95. Clippy uses pedantic warnings as errors. The manual release-readiness workflow repeats the Rust, coverage, and supply-chain checks, checks the requested version, and runs a crates.io publish dry run; it does not publish a release. Dependabot checks Cargo and GitHub Actions updates weekly. The 32 REST methods have deterministic loopback success and rejection fixtures, including method, URL, query, header, and mutation-body checks. Both streams have local framing, heartbeat, error, and gap tests. These tests establish the documented wire surface; they do not establish behavior against an authenticated OANDA account.

Weekly and manually dispatched CI also check the public OANDA release notes for versions beyond the last reviewed baseline, initially 3.0.25. Newer versions and fetch/parsing failures fail the dedicated job with an actionable summary. PR and push runs test the checker offline. See release-note monitoring for the review and baseline-update procedure.

Ignored, explicitly armed read-only Practice probes cover representative REST queries and both streams:

OANDA_READ_ONLY_PROBE=I_ACCEPT_READ_ONLY_PRACTICE \
OANDA_TOKEN=... OANDA_ACCOUNT_ID=... \
cargo test --features live-tests --test practice_read_only -- --ignored

All three read-only Practice probes passed on 2026-09-25. A separate, temporary probe placed a one-unit EUR/USD limit order well below the current bid, observed a price and heartbeat on the pricing stream, received creation and cancellation updates on the transaction stream, and verified the order's final state was CANCELLED. The temporary probe was removed; no mutation probe runs in CI or remains in this repository. See coverage and contract drift for the reviewed source and verification details.

Contributor build cache

Kache is optional for local builds. Use the pinned version 1.0.0. GitHub-hosted CI uses the repository's Rust cache setup without Kache. Start with the official Kache quick start, configuration reference and CI guide.

cargo install kache --version 1.0.0 --locked
kache --version

From the repository root, enable it for the current shell:

export RUSTC_WRAPPER=kache
export KACHE_CONFIG="$PWD/.kache.toml"
export KACHE_LOCAL_ONLY=1
export KACHE_DEFERRED_DISCOVERY=0
export KACHE_MODIFIED_INPUT_GUARD=1
export KACHE_KEY_SALT=sharurtrading-kache-prepass-2026-10-11
export KACHE_VERIFY_RESTORES=always
export CARGO_INCREMENTAL=0
export CARGO_TARGET_DIR="$PWD/target/kache-prepass-v1"
export KACHE_CACHE_DIR="$PWD/target/.kache-cache/prepass-v1"

Run the repository's usual Cargo quality commands after this setup. .kache.toml defines the reviewed policy:

Setting Behavior
local_only = true Disable Kache remote backends and the planner
deferred_discovery = false Hash discovered inputs before compilation
modified_input_guard = true Reject inputs newer than the build start
key_salt Isolate entries under this discovery policy
gc_max_age_hours = 48 Use Kache GC for age retention
KACHE_VERIFY_RESTORES=always Verify restored blob checksums

[!IMPORTANT] Keep source files unchanged while a build runs; use a separate checkout for concurrent edits. The input guard and checksum verification do not establish cache-key correctness for arbitrary edits during compilation. Cargo can reuse already-fresh outputs without calling Kache, so investigate a suspect result in a fresh target directory with the wrapper disabled:

CARGO_TARGET_DIR="$(mktemp -d)" RUSTC_WRAPPER= cargo check --locked

Inspect reuse with kache stats --last-build, kache explain and kache doctor. For persistent local setup, kache init --check previews Cargo configuration changes before kache init applies them. Environment variables take precedence over the repository file; retain the policy above and restart any existing daemon when changing its environment, as described in the configuration reference.

CI build cache

GitHub-hosted Rust jobs use Swatinem/rust-cache to persist Cargo build outputs and downloaded dependencies. Kache is used only when a contributor opts into local builds with the setup above. CI retains its existing quality gates and runner selections.
