Here is an article with the proper code to use Binance’s Node.js API:
Getting Open Orders for a Symbol Using Binance Node.js API
When working with cryptocurrency markets, it is crucial to stay up to date with market data. One way to achieve this is to use the Binance Node.js API. However, accessing open orders requires certain permissions and proper error handling.
To get open orders for a symbol from the Binance API, you can use the getOpenOrders endpoint. Here’s how to do it:
Step 1: Set up your environment
Make sure you have Node.js installed on your computer along with the required packages:
npm install -g @binance/binary-data-api
This will install the Binance API package globally.
Step 2: Create a client credentials file
To use the getOpenOrders endpoint, you need to create a client credentials file. This file is used by the API to authenticate your requests. You can create it using your Binance account settings:
- Log in to your Binance account.
- Go to
Account >
Security >
Client Credentials.
- Click on “Create New Client Credentials” and select “Basic”.
- Enter your client ID and client secret (this is required for authentication).
Step 3: Write the API Call
Now that you have the client credentials, you can write the API call using Node.js:
const binaancpp = Require('@binance/binary-data-api');
async function getOpenOrders(symbol) {
try {
// Set up a Binance API client with a client ID and secret
const client = new binaancpp.BinanceClient({
clientID: 'your_client_id',
clientSecret: 'your_client_sekret'
});
// Call the getOpenOrders endpoint
const response = await client.get('openOrders', {
symbol,
limit: 10, // Retrieve up to 10 open orders at a time
market: 'spot' // Specify the market (e.g. spot ETHBTC)
});
console.log(response.data);
} catch (error) {
console.error(error);
}
}
// Call the function using your symbol (in this example ETHBTC)
getOpenOrders('ETHBTC');
Step 4: Handle errors properly
Errors can occur when making API calls. To handle them properly, you should also include error handling code:
Error: ${message}`);
async function getOpenOrders(symbol) {
try {
// Set up a Binance API client with a client ID and secret
const client = new binaancpp.BinanceClient({
clientID: 'your_client_id',
clientSecret: 'your_client_secret'
});
// Call the getOpenOrders endpoint
const response = await client.get('openOrders', {
symbol,
limit: 10, // Retrieve up to 10 open orders at a time
market: 'spot' // Specify the market (e.g. spot ETHBTC)
});
console.log(response.data);
} catch (error) {
if (error.code === 'BinanceClientError') {
const code = error.code;
const message = error.message;
switch (code) {
case 4003:
// Market unavailable
abort;
case 4004:
// Network error
abort;
default:
console.error(message);
throw new Error(
}
} else if (error instanceof Error) {
console.error(error);
}
}
}
By following these steps and adding proper error handling, you can successfully receive open token orders from the Binance API using Node.js.
