mangroveai 1.0.2

Python SDK for the MangroveAI trading strategy platform

MangroveAI Python SDK

Python SDK for the MangroveAI trading strategy platform.

Install

pip install mangrove-ai

Migrating from mangroveai (the pre-1.0 package name)? Two changes:

- pip install mangroveai
+ pip install mangrove-ai

- from mangroveai import MangroveAI
+ from mangrove_ai import MangroveAI

Everything else (the MangroveAI client class, every method name, every model name) is unchanged. The old mangroveai PyPI package will receive a final 0.3.2 release with a DeprecationWarning and then stop receiving updates. See CHANGELOG.md [1.0.0] for the full rationale.

Setup

1. Create an account at mangrovedeveloper.ai
2. Navigate to Settings > API Keys
3. Generate a new API key
4. Set it as an environment variable:

export MANGROVE_API_KEY=prod_your_key_here

Quickstart

from mangrove_ai import MangroveAI

client = MangroveAI()  # reads MANGROVE_API_KEY from environment

# List trading signals
signals = client.signals.list(limit=10)
for s in signals.items:
    print(f"{s.name} ({s.category}, {s.signal_type})")

# Get market data
btc = client.crypto_assets.get_market_data("BTC")
print(f"BTC: ${btc.data['current_price']:,.2f}")

# Create a strategy
from mangrove_ai.models import CreateStrategyRequest

strategy = client.strategies.create(CreateStrategyRequest(
    name="RSI Momentum",
    asset="BTC",
    entry=[{"name": "rsi_oversold", "signal_type": "TRIGGER",
            "timeframe": "1d", "params": {"window": 14, "threshold": 30}}],
))

# Run a backtest
import json
from mangrove_ai.models import BacktestRequest

result = client.backtesting.run(BacktestRequest(
    asset="BTC",
    interval="1d",
    strategy_json=json.dumps({"name": "test", "asset": "BTC",
        "entry": [{"name": "rsi_oversold", "signal_type": "TRIGGER",
                    "timeframe": "1d", "params": {"window": 14, "threshold": 30}}],
        "exit": []}),
    lookback_months=3,
    initial_balance=10000,
    min_balance_threshold=0.1, min_trade_amount=25,
    max_open_positions=3, max_trades_per_day=10,
    max_risk_per_trade=0.02, max_units_per_trade=1000000,
    max_trade_amount=10000000, volatility_window=24,
    target_volatility=0.1,
    # Optional: per-timeframe cooldown configuration (preferred over legacy flat fields).
    # Keys are the primary timeframe; each value carries max_hold_time_hours,
    # short_loss_limit, long_loss_limit, short_window_bars, and long_window_bars.
    cooldown_config={
        "1d": {
            "max_hold_time_hours": 10,
            "short_loss_limit": 4,
            "long_loss_limit": 6,
            "short_window_bars": 20,
            "long_window_bars": 60,
        }
    },
))
print(f"Trades: {result.trade_count}, Sharpe: {result.metrics.get('sharpe_ratio')}")

Services

Layer 1: MangroveAI Core API

Service	Access	Methods	Description
client.auth	auth.*	5	Login, refresh, API key management
client.strategies	strategies.*	8	Strategy CRUD, status, execution state
client.backtesting	backtesting.*	7	Sync/async/bulk backtesting
client.signals	signals.*	7	Signal discovery, evaluation, validation
client.crypto_assets	crypto_assets.*	8	Assets, exchanges, OHLCV, market data
client.execution	execution.*	8	Accounts, positions, trades, evaluation
client.docs	docs.*	2	Documentation listing and content

Layer 2: Knowledge Base API

Service	Access	Methods	Description
client.kb.documents	kb.documents.*	3	Document listing, content, sections
client.kb.search	kb.search.*	1	Full-text search with BM25 ranking
client.kb.tags	kb.tags.*	2	Tag listing and filtering

Layer 3: Coming Soon

On-chain analytics (client.on_chain), DeFi data (client.defi), and social signals (client.social) are defined but not yet available. Calling these methods raises NotImplementedLayerError.

Environment Detection

The SDK auto-detects the environment from your API key prefix:

Prefix	Environment	API Base URL
prod_	Production	https://api.mangrovedeveloper.ai/api/v1
dev_	Development	https://devapi.mangrove.trade/api/v1

Override with explicit parameters:

client = MangroveAI(api_key="...", base_url="http://localhost:5001/api/v1")

Error Handling

from mangrove_ai import MangroveAI, NotFoundError, RateLimitError, APIError

client = MangroveAI()

try:
    strategy = client.strategies.get("nonexistent-id")
except NotFoundError as e:
    print(f"Not found: {e.message} (correlation_id={e.correlation_id})")
except RateLimitError as e:
    print(f"Rate limited, retry after {e.retry_after}s")
except APIError as e:
    print(f"[{e.status_code}] {e.code}: {e.message}")

Pagination

Paginated endpoints return PaginatedResponse[T]:

# Single page
page = client.strategies.list(skip=0, limit=10)
print(f"Showing {len(page.items)} of {page.total}")

# Auto-paginate all items
for strategy in client.strategies.list_iter():
    print(strategy.name)
