Ethereum: Is there a Binance API for Swift (iOS)?

As of my last update in April 2023, there doesn’t seem to be a direct Binance API for Swift (iOS). The primary method for interacting with the Binance exchange from iOS is through the Binance Web API or the Binance Mobile SDK provided by Binance itself.

However, developers who want to have more control over their app’s interactions and perhaps leverage third-party services or APIs for additional functionality should consider alternative options. Here’s an overview of what you can do:

Using the Binance Web API

The Binance Web API is a REST-based interface that allows users to access a variety of financial data and services from a web browser. For iOS developers, this means integrating the Binance Web API into your app using Swift.

• Sign up for a Binance API key: First, you’ll need an API key from Binance.

• Set up the API client library:

  Download the required library that comes with the Binance SDK for iOS.

• Use the API in your app: Use the client library to make HTTP requests to Binance endpoints.

Here is a simple example of how to get data from Binance using the Web API:

import UIKit
import WebAPI
class ViewController: UIViewController {
override function viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Replace with your actual API key and secret
let apiKey = "YOUR_API_KEY"
let apiSecret = "YOUR_API_SECRET"
// Set up the Binance API client
do {
let apiClient = WebAPI.sharedWithApiKey(apiKey: apiKey, apiSecret: apiSecret)
// Get some data from the exchange
guard let account = try? apiClient.getBalance(amount: "BNB") else {
print ("Failed to get balance")
return
}
print (account)
} catch {
print("Error making API request: \(error)")
}
}
}

Using Third-Party APIs

There are many third-party APIs that provide access to Binance data that can be integrated into your app. Some popular options include:

–
CoinGecko:

A free, open-source API for retrieving cryptocurrency market information.

–
Binance OpenAPI (POA): Although not officially supported by Binance, there have been efforts to create third-party libraries or services that support POA.

For example, using the [CoinGecko API]( you can integrate it into your app like this:

import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController {
override function viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Replace with your actual API key and secret
let apiKey = "YOUR_API_KEY"
let apiSecret = "YOUR_API_SECRET"
// Set up the CoinGecko client
do {
let cgClient = CGOAPIClient(apiKey: apiKey, apiSecret: apiSecret)
// Get some data from the exchange
guard try? cgClient.getMarketData(symbol: "BTC/USDT") else {
print ("Failed to get market data")
return
}
} catch {
print("Error while making API request: \(error)")
}
}
}

Conclusion

The most direct and recommended way for your iOS app to access Binance data is through the Binance Web API or a third-party API that supports this interface. Be sure to check the official documentation for each option you are considering, as well as any specific requirements such as speed limits and security considerations, before integrating the API into your app.

If you encounter any difficulties or have any questions about implementing these APIs, please do not hesitate to ask and seek help on the Binance Community Forums or third-party resources.
