Token Balance and Token Info (/token)

To fetch information about your balance, token details, and ETH balance use the follow API call in a simple HTTP GET or CURL. The response is in JSON so you can easily parse what you need.

Run with Docker

You can easily start Token Balance with Docker. Register for a free Infura.io API Key to use Token Balance without downloading the ethereum blockchain.

docker run -p 8080:8080 -e GETH_SERVER=https://mainnet.infura.io/APIKEY -d hunterlong/tokenbalance

Use as Golang Package

You can use Token Balance as a typical Go Language package if you you like to implement ERC20 functionality into your own application.

go get github.com/hunterlong/tokenbalance

First you'll want to connect to your Geth server or IPC

import (
    "github.com/hunterlong/tokenbalance"
)

func main() {
	// connect to your Geth Server
    configs = &tokenbalance.Config{
         GethLocation: "https://eth.coinapp.io",
         Logs:         true,
    }
    configs.Connect()

    // insert a Token Contract address and Wallet address
    contract := "0x86fa049857e0209aa7d9e616f7eb3b3b78ecfdb0"
    wallet := "0xbfaa1a1ea534d35199e84859975648b59880f639"

    // query the blockchain and wallet details
    token, err := tokenbalance.New(contract, wallet)

    // Token Balance will respond back useful things
    token.BalanceString()  // "600000.0"
    token.ETHString()      // "1.020095885777777767"
    token.Name             // "OmiseGO"
    token.Symbol           // "OMG"
    token.Decimals         // 18
    token.Balance          // big.Int() (token balance)
    token.ETH              // big.Int() (ether balance)
}

Implement in Google Sheets

If your familiar with Google Sheets, you can easily fetch all of your cryptocurrency balances within 1 spreadsheet. All you need to do is make a cell with the value below.

=ImportData("https://api.tokenbalance.com/balance/0xd26114cd6EE289AccF82350c8d8487fedB8A0C07/0xf9578adc61d07671f536d50afc5800232fc9fd86")

Simple as that! Get creative an use Coin Market Cap's API to fetch the price and multiply with your balance to make a portfolio of your cryptocurrencies!
