I've just created a java API for Cryptsy.  Please take a look and let me know if you have any suggestions.

https://github.com/abwaters/cryptsy-api

Please note that I'm currently working on the javadocs to make sure they are complete...

It appears this API has limited market depth info from cryptsy. Why doesn't cryptsy offer a full market depth?

Is there any way to get historical trades (so for example by adding a timestamp parameter at the 'markettrades' request?) through the API?

Any java coders using this exchange?

Interested in an API implementation?

The public market feeds are working fine.





I haven't seen anything on the private methods yet

Documentation popped up sometime in the past day or two:

https://www.cryptsy.com/pages/api

I've knocked together the beginning of a Python binding:

https://github.com/salfter/PyCryptsy

There's enough functionality in it to enable auto-trading on Cryptsy with CryptoSwitcher. My changes are already in the current version:

https://github.com/area/CryptoSwitcher

Cryptsy-related changes will likely show up in my fork first (though my pull requests have been accepted pretty quickly):

https://github.com/salfter/CryptoSwitcher



Nice, I always thought Cryptsy based trading platforms would be the most convenient/handy given the variety of alt-coins and the large spreads they often have, thanks for sharing.

Add a method to calculate the fee for a given order.

And a method to return the supported currency pairs.

I could support your exchange in my lib.

The guide will be updated here when it is live: https://www.cryptsy.com/pages/api

I have an app that pulls market data from Cryptsy; this functionality has worked pretty well.  I'd like to take a stab at setting up CryptoSwitcher to auto-trade through Cryptsy, as the fees (especially BTC withdrawal fees) are much more reasonable than BTC-e or Vircurex, but this part of the API appears to be undocumented.  Is it undocumented because it's a work-in-progress or unimplemented, or have you just not gotten around to it?

Yes, trying to have it ready for production for monday.

The guide will be updated here when it is live: https://www.cryptsy.com/pages/api

When it is launched you will be able to generate your keys on your account settings page.

I'm not affiliated with cryptsy or anything or making any official announcement here but....
When I point my browser to Cryptsy I normally follow https://www.cryptsy.com/api since it is somehow the first link that appears with predictive text. Normally it redirects me right to cryptsy.com but tonight, much to my pleasant surprise, it loaded a "save file" dialog window and the text in the json is: {"test":"test"}
So it appears cryptsy is adding (or at least trying to) API support. I didn't see a thread or mention of this when I searched for cryptsy and API so I figured I'd post. Cryptsy has alot of currencies with varying volume so there could be some potential trading between.
