Toolbox integration examples for charting apps

Generating a Client SDK

WhenToTrade SwaggerHub integration lets you generate client SDKs for APIs in JavaScript, Java, C#, Objective C, Swift, Android and many other languages. A client SDK contains wrapper classes that you can use to call the API from your application without having to deal with HTTP requests and responses.

Anyone can generate an SDK for our API via our SwaggerHub portal.

Downloading a Client SDK

  1. Open our API page in SwaggerHub.
    https://swaggerhub.com/apis/whentotrade/marketcycles/v1
  2. If the API has several versions, select the version you want to use.
  3. In the top right corner, click the DOWNLOAD (arrow) button, then select Client and your language or framework.
  4. Download and unzip the SDK.
  5. I have downloaded the client SDK. Now what?
    This depends on the language you are using. Usually, an SDK is not designed to work on its own – you will need to create an application that will use this SDK to make API calls. See the README.md file in the downloaded archive to get started.
