# api.lionshare.capital

API that powers [Lionshare](https://lionshare.capital) by providing both historical (REST)

and realtime time (websocket) cryptocurrency market data. The data is sourced

from [GDAX](https://gdax.com), [Poloniex](https://poloniex.com/), and

[Coinmarketcap](https://coinmarketcap.com/).

Build with Node, Koa 2, `uws` and Redis.

## Development

Redis is required for caching and a valid connection URL should be set to `REDIS_URL`

environment variable before running the development server. `.env` is loaded on

startup. Make sure that you have `redis` installed and running (`redis-server`)

for local development.

```

yarn

yarn dev

```
