The Complete Guide to Orcel API Developer Tools

Building powerful applications requires more than just access to data—it demands tools that streamline development, reduce friction, and accelerate time-to-market. Orcel's robust ecosystem of developer tools is designed with this philosophy in mind, providing everything you need to harness the full potential of our API platform.

Client Libraries: Native Integration for Any Stack

Our officially supported SDKs provide seamless integration with the Orcel API across multiple languages and frameworks:

JavaScript/TypeScript SDK

import { Orcel } from '@orcel/sdk';
 
// Initialize the Orcel client with your API key
const orcel = new Orcel('YOUR_API_KEY');
 
// Function to analyze a Solana memecoin by address
async function analyzeToken(tokenAddress: string) {
  try {
    // Get comprehensive token analytics
    const tokenData = await orcel.tokens.getAnalytics(tokenAddress);
    
    console.log('Token Name:', tokenData.name);
    console.log('Token Symbol:', tokenData.symbol);
    console.log('Market Cap:', tokenData.marketCap);
    console.log('Risk Score:', tokenData.riskScore);
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Analysis failed:', error);
  }
}

Python SDK

from orcel import OrcelClient
 
# Initialize client
client = OrcelClient(api_key="YOUR_API_KEY")
 
# Get market overview
market_data = client.market.get_overview()
 
# Print current market statistics
print(f"SOL Price: {market_data.sol_price}")
print(f"24h Change: {market_data.price_change_24h}")
print(f"Active Wallets: {market_data.active_wallets_24h}")

Go SDK

package main
 
import (
    "fmt"
    "log"
    
    "github.com/orcel/go-sdk"
)
 
func main() {
    // Initialize client
    client := orcel.NewClient("YOUR_API_KEY")
    
    // Get trending tokens
    trending, err := client.Market.GetTrendingTokens()
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatalf("Failed to get trending tokens: %v", err)
    }
    
    // Display trending tokens
    fmt.Println("Trending Tokens:")
    for _, token := range trending {
        fmt.Printf("%s (%s): %s (%s)\n", 
            token.Name, token.Symbol, token.Price, token.Change24h)
    }
}

API Playground: Interactive Testing Environment

Our intuitive API Playground allows you to:

• Experiment with endpoints in real-time
• Generate code snippets for your preferred language
• Visualize response data with formatted JSON and charts
• Test authentication and error handling
• Save request templates for future use

This interactive environment significantly reduces development time by allowing you to perfect your API calls before writing a single line of production code.

Comprehensive Documentation

Documentation is the backbone of any developer-friendly platform. Our documentation is meticulously crafted to provide:

• Quickstart Guides for immediate implementation
• API Reference with detailed parameter descriptions and examples
• Tutorial Series covering common implementation patterns
• Sample Applications demonstrating real-world use cases
• Migration Guides for users transitioning from other platforms

Webhooks: Event-Driven Architecture

Our webhook system enables real-time notifications for various blockchain events:

• Token price movements exceeding specified thresholds
• Smart contract interactions matching custom patterns
• Whale transactions affecting watched wallets or tokens
• New token launches meeting defined criteria

Setting up webhooks is straightforward:

1. Configure your endpoint in the developer dashboard
2. Select the events you want to monitor
3. Define filter criteria to receive only relevant notifications
4. Implement your webhook endpoint to process the incoming data

Rate Limiting and Monitoring

Our transparent approach to rate limiting includes:

• Clear documentation of limits for each tier
• Real-time usage statistics in the developer dashboard
• Header-based remaining request information
• Automatic backoff handling in our SDKs
• Upgrade recommendations based on your usage patterns
