  • Kaboom! you have just successfully deployed your API script on your hosting.
  • Now we need to find out our endpoint which returns, TOTAL and CIRCULATING supply.
  • Let’s take an example. If your website domain is:
https://example.com/
  • And the folder you created previously was /api then, you can call API by:
https://example.com/api
  • If you see it returns a message in JSON formate something like this:
{
  "status": 200,
  "contractAddress": "0x796a4503b444a71b331c9556bef0815237ddeabc",
  "decimal": 18,
  "symbol": "oDOGE"
}
  • To access TOTAL and CIRCULATING supply API endpoint, we will pass a query parameter named q in this way, here is the available query
QueryDescription
maxcoinsIt returns the maximum supply of token without burn
totalcoinsIt returns total supply of your token with burn or without burn
circulatingIt returns the circulating supply of your token
  • API endpoint for TOTAL SUPPLY:
https://example.com/api/?q=totalcoins
  • API endpoint for CIRCULATING SUPPLY:
https://example.com/api/?q=circulating

How token supply are calculated?

According to Coinmarketcap’s documentation

  • Max supply: Is the number of maximum token
  • Total supply: Max supply - burn tokens
  • Circulating supply: Total supply - (Wallet hold by team/developers)

I have tried my best to describe set-up process. If you have any query please feel free to ask:
