Title: Command line interface for Mount Gox Post by: FreeBit on December 29, 2011, 01:10:34 PM Hi,
I have programmed a command line tool to interact with Mount Gox. It is called mgcli. It implements the API functions except the withdraw bitcoins functions: https://mtgox.com/api The benefit of mgci: You want to trade Bitcoins at Mt. Gox. Insteed of login in to Mount Gox, waiting, klicking here and there, entering an amount, klicking into an other field, entering a price - you simply enter something like mgcli sellbtc 2.4 6.0 at the command prompt. This is an order to sell 2.4 Bitcoins for the price of 6$ per Bitcoin. With mgcli orders or mgcli histroy BTC you can check the execution status of this order. Other possible commands are: mgcli ticker - shows ticker data mgcli orders - shows orders mgcli cancel order - cancel an order by id ... For me this was an programming execise and the spin off of another project. It is written in scala, so you have to install a scala runtime enviroment. It is similar to the java runtime enviroment. Installation of mgcli is a little bit complicated.
