mango-bowl v0.9.4

mango-bowl: real-time WS market data API for Mango DEX

Why?

• familiar experience for centralized exchanges APIs users

  • WebSocket API with Pub/Sub flow - subscribe to selected channels and markets and receive real-time data as easy to parse JSON messages that can be consumed from any language supporting WebSocket protocol

  • incremental L2 order book updates - instead of decoding Mango market asks and bids accounts for each account change in order to detect order book updates, receive initial L2 snapshot and incremental updates as JSON messages real-time over WebSocket connection

  • tick-by-tick trades - instead of decoding eventQueue account data which is quite large and in practice it's hard to consume real-time directly from Solana RPC node due to it's size, receive individual trade messages real-time over WebSocket connection

  • real-time L3 data - receive the most granular updates on individual order level: open, change, fill and done messages for every order that Mango DEX processes

• decreased load and bandwidth consumption for Solana RPC nodes hosts - by providing real-time market data API via mango-bowl server instead of RPC node directly, hosts can decrease substantially both CPU load and bandwidth requirements as only mango-bowl will be direct consumer of RPC API when it comes to market data accounts changes and will efficiently normalize and broadcast small JSON messages to all connected clients

What about placing/cancelling orders endpoints?

mango-bowl provides real-time market data only and does not include endpoints for placing/canceling or tracking own orders as that requires handling private keys which is currently out of scope of this project.

Both microwavedcola1/mango-v3-service and @blockworks-foundation/mango-client provide such functionality and are recommended alternatives.

Getting started

Run the code snippet below in the browser Dev Tools directly or in Node.js (requires installation of ws lib, see).

// connect to hosted demo server
const ws = new WebSocket('wss://api.mango-bowl.com/v1/ws')
// if connecting to mango-bowl server running locally
// const ws = new WebSocket('ws://localhost:8010/v1/ws')

ws.onmessage = (message) => {
  console.log(JSON.parse(message.data))
}

ws.onopen = () => {
  // subscribe both to trades and level2 real-time channels
  const subscribeTrades = {
    op: 'subscribe',
    channel: 'trades',
    markets: ['MNGO-PERP', 'SOL-PERP']
  }

  const subscribeL2 = {
    op: 'subscribe',
    channel: 'level2',
    markets: ['MNGO-PERP', 'SOL-PERP']
  }

  ws.send(JSON.stringify(subscribeTrades))
  ws.send(JSON.stringify(subscribeL2))
}

Using public hosted server

Mango-bowl public hosted WebSocket server (backed by Project Serum RPC node) is available at:

wss://api.mango-bowl.com/v1/ws

Installation

IMPORTANT NOTE

For the best mango-bowl data reliability it's advised to set up a dedicated Solana RPC node and connect mango-bowl to it instead of default https://solana-api.projectserum.com which may rate limit or frequently restart Websocket RPC connections since it's a public node used by many.

npx (requires Node.js >= 15 and git installed on host machine)

Installs and starts mango-bowl server running on port 8000.

npx mango-bowl

If you'd like to switch to different Solana RPC node endpoint like for example local one, change port or run with debug logs enabled, just add one of the available CLI options.

npx mango-bowl --endpoint http://localhost:8090 --ws-endpoint-port 8899 --log-level debug --port 8900

Alternatively you can install mango-bowl globally.

npm install -g mango-bowl
mango-bowl

CLI options

Run npx mango-bowl --help to see all available startup options.

Docker

Pulls and runs latest version of tardisdev/mango-bowl Docker Image on port 8010.

docker run -p 8010:8010 -d tardisdev/mango-bowl:latest

If you'd like to switch to different Solana RPC node endpoint, change port or run with debug logs enabled, just specify those via one of the available env variables.

docker run -p 8010:8010 -e "MB_LOG_LEVEL=debug" -d tardisdev/mango-bowl:latest

ENV Variables

SSL/TLS Support

Mango-bowl supports SSL/TLS but it's not enabled by default. In order to enable it you need to set CERT_FILE_NAME env var pointing to the certificate file and KEY_FILE_NAME pointing to private key of that certificate.

WebSocket API

WebSocket API provides real-time market data feeds of Mango Markets DEX and uses a bidirectional protocol which encodes all messages as JSON objects.

Endpoint URL

• ws://localhost:8010/v1/ws - assuming mango-bowl runs locally on default port without SSL enabled

• wss://api.mango-bowl.com/v1/ws - demo mango-bowl server endpoint

Subscribing to data feeds

To begin receiving real-time market data feed messages, you must first send a subscribe message to the server indicating channels and markets for which you want the data for.

If you want to unsubscribe from channel and markets, send an unsubscribe message. The structure is equivalent to subscribe messages except op field which should be set to "op": "unsubscribe".

const ws = new WebSocket('ws://localhost:8010/v1/ws')

ws.onopen = () => {
  const subscribeL2 = {
    op: 'subscribe',
    channel: 'trades',
    markets: ['SOL-PERP', 'MNGO-PERP']
  }

  ws.send(JSON.stringify(subscribeL2))
}
