New Feature of FMZ Quant: Use _Serve Function to Create HTTP Services Easily
In quantitative trading and automated strategy development, http services are sometimes used. The FMZ Quant Trading Platform has added a function _Serve() recently, which provides users with flexible HTTP, HTTPS and TCP service creation capabilities. With this function, developers can simplify the service configuration process and implement more customized services in the quantitative environment, making strategy design smoother and more convenient. This article will introduce the usage scenarios and basic operations of the function _Serve() to help you quickly get started with this new function of FMZ Quant.
The platform API documentation for _Serve() has been updated:
Demand
The platform has upgraded the function _Serve() (since JavaScript language did not have the function of creating services before, this function only supports strategies in JavaScript language). Simply put, it enables strategies to have the ability to create network services. Based on this function, we can develop many functions and solve many problems. For example, strategies can have external interfaces, data forwarding, and cooperate with the platform's custom protocol function to seamlessly encapsulate exchanges that are not supported by the FMZ platform.
In this article, we will use the demand of "cooperating with the platform's custom protocol function to seamlessly encapsulate exchanges that are not supported by the FMZ platform" as an example. In the previous article Custom Protocol Guide, we used Python language to encapsulate the API of OKX exchange in spot mode (because FMZ itself supports OKX, OKX is used here just as an example, and it is applicable to other exchanges that are not connected to the FMZ platform). The custom protocol program of Python in this article needs to be run separately. When the JavaScript language supports function _Serve(), it is easier for the JavaScript language strategy to access the custom protocol.
We encapsulate the custom protocol of the exchange interface to be encapsulated as a "template library" and integrate it into the strategy directly, so that the strategy can seamlessly access exchanges that are not supported on FMZ. I will not go into details about how to configure the "Custom Protocol" exchange object here, you can refer to the article:
Custom Protocol Template Implementation
First, create a new strategy in the FMZ Quant Trading Platform, set the strategy type to template library, and the strategy language to JavaScript.
Template Parameter Design
Add two parameters to the created strategy template:
Then we can start designing and writing code for the custom protocol template.
Code Implementation
The code is written in TS style. The $.startService() function is a template interface function used to start the custom protocol service.
// @ts-check
$.startService = function () {
__Serve("http://:6666", function (ctx) {
// interface
interface IData {
data: object;
raw: object;
}
interface IError {
error: any;
}
// custom protocol for OKX

this.passphrase = passphrase

this.simulate = simulate

return
}
ctx.write(JSON.stringify(resp))
}
})
}
function init() {
$.startService()
}
Due to limited space, not all interfaces are implemented here. Only market query , asset query , and IO call are implemented. Users who are interested can implement all interfaces. After the design is completed, save the template code and save the template name as: "TypeScript version custom protocol example".
Testing Strategy
After configuring the OKX exchange's apikey, secretkey, passphrase, etc., we can write a test strategy to test.
Strategy checks our designed template library:
Test strategy code:
function main() {
// Test GetTicker
Log(`exchange.GetTicker():`, exchange.GetTicker())
// Test GetAccount
Log(`exchange.GetAccount():`, exchange.GetAccount())
// Test exchange.IO
Log(`exchange.IO("api", "POST", "/api/v5/trade/cancel-all-after", "timeOut=0"):`, exchange.IO("api", "POST", "/api/v5/trade/cancel-all-after", "timeOut=0"))
// Output the exchange name added by the custom protocol
Log(`exchange.GetName():`, exchange.GetName())
// Output exchange tags added by the custom protocol
Log(`exchange.GetLabel():`, exchange.GetLabel())
}
Running Tests
As we can see, the strategy only needs to check a template to achieve seamless access to the OKX exchange (although the OKX exchange already supports it, for example, OKX is replaced here with an exchange that FMZ has not yet connected to).
