Installation Guide

The easiest way to install the CCXT library is to use a package manager:

  • ccxt in NPM (JavaScript / Node v7.6+)

  • ccxt in PyPI (Python 3.7.0+)

  • ccxt in Packagist/Composer (PHP 8.1+)

  • ccxt in Nuget (netstandard 2.0)

  • ccxt in GO

    • This library is shipped as an all-in-one module implementation with minimalistic dependencies and requirements:

  • js/ in JavaScript

  • python/ in Python (generated from TS)

  • php/ in PHP (generated from TS)

  • cs/ in C# (generated from TS)

  • go/ in Go (generated from TS)

    • You can also clone it into your project directory from ccxt GitHub repository:

    shell
    git clone https://github.com/ccxt/ccxt.git  # including 1GB of commit history

# or

git clone https://github.com/ccxt/ccxt.git --depth 1  # avoid downloading 1GB of commit history

    JavaScript (NPM)

    JavaScript version of CCXT works in both Node and web browsers. Requires ES6 and async/await syntax support (Node 7.6.0+). When compiling with Webpack and Babel, make sure it is not excluded in your babel-loader config.

    ccxt in NPM

    shell
    npm install ccxt
    JavaScript
    //cjs
var ccxt = require ('ccxt')
console.log (ccxt.exchanges) // print all available exchanges
    Javascript
    //esm
import {version, exchanges} from 'ccxt';
console.log(version, Object.keys(exchanges));

    JavaScript (for use with the <script> tag):

    All-in-one browser bundle (dependencies included), served from a CDN of your choice:

    * jsDelivr: https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/ccxt@4.5.49/dist/ccxt.browser.min.js
    * unpkg: https://unpkg.com/ccxt@4.5.49/dist/ccxt.browser.min.js

    CDNs are not updated in real-time and may have delays. Defaulting to the most recent version without specifying the version number is not recommended. Please, keep in mind that we are not responsible for the correct operation of those CDN servers.

    HTML
    <script type="text/javascript" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/ccxt@4.5.49/dist/ccxt.browser.min.js"></script>

    Creates a global ccxt object:

    JavaScript
    console.log (ccxt.exchanges) // print all available exchanges

    Python

    ccxt in PyPI

    shell
    pip install ccxt
    Python
    import ccxt
print(ccxt.exchanges) # print a list of all available exchange classes

    The library supports concurrent asynchronous mode with asyncio and async/await in Python 3.7.0+

    Python
    import ccxt.async_support as ccxt # link against the asynchronous version of ccxt

    #### orjson support

    CCXT also supports orjson for parsing JSON since it is much faster than the builtin library. This is especially important when using websockets because some exchanges return big messages that need to be parsed and dispatched as quickly as possible.

    However, orjson is not enabled by default because it is not supported by every python interpreter. If you want to opt-in, you just need to install it (pip install orjson) on your local environment. CCXT will detect the installion and pick it up automatically.

    #### ECDSA Support

    Some exchanges, such as Hyperliquid, Binance, and Paradex use ECDSA for request signing.
    By default, CCXT includes a pure Python ECDSA implementation that ensures compatibility across all environments. However, this implementation may not meet the performance requirements of latency-sensitive applications.

    To address this, CCXT also supports the Coincurve library, which dramatically reduces signing time from approximately 45 ms to under 0.05 ms.

    For optimal performance, we recommend installing Coincurve via:

    text
    pip install coincurve

    Once installed, CCXT will automatically detect and use it.

    PHP

    ccxt in PHP with Packagist/Composer (PHP 8.1+)

    It requires common PHP modules:

  • cURL

  • mbstring (using UTF-8 is highly recommended)

  • PCRE

  • iconv

  • gmp

    • PHP
    include "ccxt.php";
var_dump (\ccxt\Exchange::$exchanges); // print a list of all available exchange classes

    The library supports concurrent asynchronous mode using tools from ReactPHP in PHP 8.1+. Read the Manual for more details.

    .net/C#

    ccxt in C# with Nuget (netstandard 2.0 and netstandard 2.1)

    ``c#
    using ccxt;
    Console.WriteLine(ccxt.Exchanges) // check this later
    ``

    Go

    ccxt in GO with PKG

    shell
    go install github.com/ccxt/ccxt/go/v4@latest
    Go
    import "ccxt"
fmt.Println(ccxt.Exchanges)

    Docker

    You can get CCXT installed in a container along with all the supported languages and dependencies. This may be useful if you want to contribute to CCXT (e.g. run the build scripts and tests — please see the Contributing document for the details on that).

    Using docker-compose (in the cloned CCXT repository):

    shell
    docker-compose run --rm ccxt

    You don't need the Docker image if you're not going to develop CCXT. If you just want to use CCXT – just install it as a regular package into your project.
