# REST API Usage
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
Enable the rest API by adding the api_server section to your configuration and setting `api_server.enabled` to `true`.
|
|
|
|
Sample configuration:
|
|
|
|
``` json
|
|
"api_server": {
|
|
"enabled": true,
|
|
"listen_ip_address": "127.0.0.1",
|
|
"listen_port": 8080
|
|
},
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
!!! Danger: Security warning
|
|
By default, the configuration listens on localhost only (so it's not reachable from other systems). We strongly recommend to not expose this API to the internet, since others will potentially be able to control your bot.
|
|
|
|
You can then access the API by going to `http://127.0.0.1:8080/api/v1/version` to check if the API is running correctly.
|
|
|
|
### Configuration with docker
|
|
|
|
If you run your bot using docker, you'll need to have the bot listen to incomming connections. The security is then handled by docker.
|
|
|
|
``` json
|
|
"api_server": {
|
|
"enabled": true,
|
|
"listen_ip_address": "0.0.0.0",
|
|
"listen_port": 8080
|
|
},
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Add the following to your docker command:
|
|
|
|
``` bash
|
|
-p 127.0.0.1:8080:8080
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
A complete sample-command may then look as follows:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker run -d \
|
|
--name freqtrade \
|
|
-v ~/.freqtrade/config.json:/freqtrade/config.json \
|
|
-v ~/.freqtrade/user_data/:/freqtrade/user_data \
|
|
-v ~/.freqtrade/tradesv3.sqlite:/freqtrade/tradesv3.sqlite \
|
|
-p 127.0.0.1:8080:8080 \
|
|
freqtrade --db-url sqlite:///tradesv3.sqlite --strategy MyAwesomeStrategy
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
!!! Danger "Security warning"
|
|
By using `-p 8080:8080` the API is available to everyone connecting to the server under the correct port, so others may be able to control your bot.
|
|
|
|
## Consuming the API
|
|
|
|
You can consume the API by using the script `scripts/rest_client.py`.
|
|
The client script only requires the `requests` module, so FreqTrade does not need to be installed on the system.
|
|
|
|
``` bash
|
|
python3 scripts/rest_client.py <command> [optional parameters]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
By default, the script assumes `127.0.0.1` (localhost) and port `8080` to be used, however you can specify a configuration file to override this behaviour.
|
|
|
|
### Minimalistic client config
|
|
|
|
``` json
|
|
{
|
|
"api_server": {
|
|
"enabled": true,
|
|
"listen_ip_address": "0.0.0.0",
|
|
"listen_port": 8080
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
``` bash
|
|
python3 scripts/rest_client.py --config rest_config.json <command> [optional parameters]
|
|
```
|
|
|
