coingecko

What it does

Implements CoinGecko's on-chain Solana API integration, offering real-time token prices, DEX pool data, OHLCV charts, trade history, DEX discovery, search, megafilter, and top pool/pool-related data across Solana networks.

How it works

The guide describes TypeScript/JavaScript functions and HTTP request patterns that call endpoints under BASE_URL (https://api.coingecko.com/api/v3/onchain for demo, or pro equivalents) with NETWORK set to 'solana'. It uses headers keyed by a per-type API_KEY (HEADER_KEY) and constructs requests like:

• GET /simple/networks/{network}/token_price/{token_address}
• GET /networks/{network}/tokens/{address}
• GET /networks/{network}/tokens/multi/{addresses}
• GET /networks/{network}/pools/{pool_address}
• GET /networks/{network}/pools
• GET /networks/trending_pools
• GET /search/pools
• GET /networks/{network}/pools/{pool_address}/ohlcv/{timeframe}
• GET /networks/{network}/pools/{pool_address}/trades
• GET /networks/{network}/dexes
• GET /pools/megafilter

Examples show how to construct URLs, add query parameters (include, interval, limit, currency), and parse data into TypeScript interfaces.

When to use it

Use when you need real-time token prices, pool details, chart data, or historical trades for Solana DeFi assets, or when building trading bots, portfolio trackers, price feeds, or on-chain data apps that require on-chain data analytics across 1,700+ DEXes and 15M+ tokens.

What it can touch

• API endpoints as described above via fetch calls
• Environment/config values: COINGECKO_API_KEY, COINGECKO_API_TYPE, BASE_URL, HEADER_KEY, NETWORK set to 'solana'

Caveats

• Rate limits are listed per plan (Demo 30 calls/min, Pro 1000 calls/min, etc.).
• Data fields and response shapes are defined in the code examples (TokenData, PoolData, OHLCVData, TradeData, DexData), and may vary by endpoint or plan.
• No guarantees of uptime or data completeness beyond stated endpoints and parameters.
