Javascript bot programming using Gemini API, NodeJS and CryptoCompare - DISCUSSION

[baichen111]

Hi,
I came across a failure when running following:

baichen@MacProM1:~/GeminiApi$ node index.js 
node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:1125
      throw new ERR_REQUIRE_ESM(filename, parentPath, packageJsonPath);
      ^

Error [ERR_REQUIRE_ESM]: Must use import to load ES Module: /Users/baichen/GeminiApi/node_modules/node-fetch/src/index.js
require() of ES modules is not supported.
require() of /Users/baichen/GeminiApi/node_modules/node-fetch/src/index.js from /Users/baichen/GeminiApi/index.js is an ES module file as it is a .js file whose nearest parent package.json contains "type": "module" which defines all .js files in that package scope as ES modules.
Instead rename /Users/baichen/GeminiApi/node_modules/node-fetch/src/index.js to end in .cjs, change the requiring code to use import(), or remove "type": "module" from /Users/baichen/GeminiApi/node_modules/node-fetch/package.json.

Code:

const GeminiAPI = require("gemini-api").default;

const key = "xxxx";

const secret = "xxxx";

const CCAPIKey = "xxx";

const restClient = new GeminiAPI({key,secret,sandbox:true});

const CryptoCompareAPI = require("cryptocompare");

CryptoCompareAPI.setApiKey(CCAPIKey);

you have to either upgrade or downgrade your node-fetch ; I believe i had the same error and i did this and then it worked out.

SOLUTION:

1. Uninstall the current version of node-fetch with npm uninstall node-fetch
2. Install the second version: npm install node-fetch@2
   It has worked for me!

const GeminiAPI = require("gemini-api").default;
const secret = "xxxxxxxxxxxxx";
const key = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxx";
const restClient = new GeminiAPI({key, secret, sandbox: true});

restClient.newOrder({amount:10,price:100,side:"buy",symbol:"btcusd"})
.then(response => console.log(response)).catch(error => console.log(error));

Hi everyone, I am running into the following problem in powershell:

{
result: ‘error’,
reason: ‘InvalidNonce’,
message: “Nonce ‘1660911401386’ is not within 30 seconds of server time ‘1660911402’’”
}

Does anyone know what this means?

@CryptoG03

result: ‘error’,
reason: ‘InvalidNonce’,
message: “Nonce ‘1660911401386’ is not within 30 seconds of server time ‘1660911402’’”

You might need to sync the time of your OS system.

Hi Carlos Z,

Do I need to sync it within my VScode? Or otherwise, what steps do I need to take to do that?

[CryptoG03]

global.fetch = require("node-fetch");
const GeminiAPI = require("gemini-api").default;
const secret = "dNsEFuPFuCpiapFQHM5Ct74vnjk";
const key = "account-OlJPSozAdkw68CyuOjht";
const CCAPIKey = "b27f6a9f0c3c4bb4e4960ec7006c2c04df9c379796c4b09aa29e476a69115767";
const restClient = new GeminiAPI({key, secret, sandbox: true});

const CryptoCompareAPI = require("cryptocompare");
CryptoCompareAPI.setApiKey(CCAPIKey);


/*restClient.newOrder({amount:1,price:1200,side:"buy",symbol:"ethusd"})
.then(response => restClient.cancelOrder({order_id: response.order_id})).then(response => console.log(response)).catch(error => console.log(error));*/

//CryptoCompareAPI.coinList()
//.then(coinList => {
//    console.log(coinList)
//})

// 1 get data from CC
CryptoCompareAPI.histoHour('BTC', 'USD')
.then(data => {
    data = data.reverse()
    for(let i = 0;i<100;i++){
        console.log(i);
        console.log(data[i].close)
    }


})
.catch(console.error)

// 2 calculate MA from 100 past hours


// 3 check continuously if price is crossing 100 MA => BUY/SELL/HOLD

My code seems to be correct but I get this error. Can you help me with this?

Kind regards.

This might be the same issue that we had long time ago, take a look at this post, which should be the solution to that issue:

Perfect, I have managed to run your code properly. I think the issue is on the module node-fetch at the latest version, I just switch the version dependency in your package.json so I force it to download the same version that I have in my old version, and it does the trick. [image] NOTE: please remember to delete your node_modules folder and then change the version on the dependecies and then npm install again. Then I was able to run your script properly [image] @Lehigr2, @PhilD…

[CryptoG03]

Yes that did the trick for me. Thanks!

[Philip_Wong]

atom is obsolete, will the code works the same in VS code?

[thecil]

Yes, Visual Code is what is commonly used so far for programming, using atom or VS will achieve the same goal.

Hi again,
When I try to import node-fetch using

global.fetch = require(“node-fetch”);

and then run index.js via powershell, power shell gives me this error message:

Error [ERR_REQUIRE_ESM]: require() of ES Module
Instead change the require to a dynamic import() which is available in all CommonJS modules.

I think what it means is I need to change

global.fetch = require(“node-fetch”);

to something else, something along the line of:

const fetch = require(“node-fetch”);

I’ve tried several ways to try to rectified this problem, but none of it work. Did someone also have this problem? how can I solve this?

thanks

found a work around from stackoverflow: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/69087292/requirenode-fetch-gives-err-require-esm
for all those in the future that had a similar problem, the link above may be able to help you as well.

[Philip_Wong]

is there any other services better than coin market cap VS crypto compare, which one is better?
are there other website or services that has better services than these two, whether it’s free or paid?

[thecil]

Thare are also this 2, both have a free version to be use.
