Implementation Reference

  • The core handler function for the 'fetchMarkets' tool. It retrieves a public CCXT exchange instance, loads the markets, and returns the JSON-stringified markets data or an error message.
    async ({ exchangeId }) => {
      try {
        // 공개 인스턴스 사용
        const exchange = ccxtServer.getPublicExchangeInstance(exchangeId);
        const markets = await exchange.loadMarkets();
    
        return {
          content: [
            {
              type: "text",
              text: JSON.stringify(markets, null, 2)
            }
          ]
        };
      } catch (error) {
        return {
          content: [
            {
              type: "text",
              text: `Error fetching markets: ${(error as Error).message}`
            }
          ],
          isError: true
        };
      }
    }
  • Zod schema defining the input parameters for the 'fetchMarkets' tool: exchangeId as a string.
    {
      exchangeId: z.string().describe("Exchange ID (e.g., 'binance', 'coinbase')")
    },
  • The server.tool() call that registers the 'fetchMarkets' tool, including its name, description, input schema, and handler function.
      "fetchMarkets",
      "Fetch markets from a cryptocurrency exchange",
      {
        exchangeId: z.string().describe("Exchange ID (e.g., 'binance', 'coinbase')")
      },
      async ({ exchangeId }) => {
        try {
          // 공개 인스턴스 사용
          const exchange = ccxtServer.getPublicExchangeInstance(exchangeId);
          const markets = await exchange.loadMarkets();
    
          return {
            content: [
              {
                type: "text",
                text: JSON.stringify(markets, null, 2)
              }
            ]
          };
        } catch (error) {
          return {
            content: [
              {
                type: "text",
                text: `Error fetching markets: ${(error as Error).message}`
              }
            ],
            isError: true
          };
        }
      }
    );
  • src/server.ts:372-372 (registration)
    Invocation of registerMarketTools within CcxtMcpServer's registerTools() method, which triggers the registration of 'fetchMarkets' and other market tools.
    registerMarketTools(this.server, this);
  • Helper method getPublicExchangeInstance used by the fetchMarkets handler to obtain an unauthenticated CCXT exchange instance for loading markets.
      exchangeId: string,
      marketType: "spot" | "futures" = "spot",
    ): Exchange {
      const instanceKey = `${exchangeId}-${marketType}`;
    
      if (!this.publicExchangeInstances[instanceKey]) {
        if (!ccxt.exchanges.includes(exchangeId)) {
          console.error(
            `Exchange ID '${exchangeId}' not found in ccxt.exchanges for public instance.`,
          );
          throw new Error(`Unsupported exchange for public data: ${exchangeId}`);

        const exchangeOptions = {
          options: {
            defaultType: marketType,
          },
        };
