NEPSE Unofficial API
A client for fetching data from Nepal Stock Exchange (NEPSE). This is an unofficial API client built with Bun in mind, featuring an auto-scaling worker pool for high-performance concurrent requests.
Note: This project utilizes Bun workers. If you want to use this in Node.js, a PR is more than welcome!
⚠️ Disclaimer
This is an unofficial API client. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to the Nepal Stock Exchange (NEPSE) in any way. Use at your own risk. The API endpoints may change without notice.

Quick Start
import {

getSummary,
getTopGainers,
getWorkerPoolStats,
shutdownWorkerPool,
} from 'nepse-api-unofficial';
// Get market status
const status = await get_market_status();
console.log('Market is:', status?.isOpen);
// Get market summary
const summary = await getSummary();
console.log('Total Turnover:', summary?.['Total Turnover Rs:']);
// Get top gainers
const gainers = await getTopGainers();
console.log('Top Gainer:', gainers?.[0]?.symbol);
// Check worker pool statistics
const stats = getWorkerPoolStats();
console.log('Active workers:', stats?.totalWorkers);
// Graceful shutdown when done
await shutdownWorkerPool();API Reference

Worker Pool Configuration
The worker pool automatically manages workers with the following defaults:
| Option | Default | Description |
|--------|---------|-------------|
| minWorkers | 1 | Minimum number of workers to maintain |
| maxWorkers | 10 | Maximum number of workers |
| idleTimeout | 30,000ms | Time before idle workers are terminated |
| taskTimeout | 60,000ms | Timeout for individual tasks |
| maxRetries | 3 | Number of retries for failed tasks |
| scalingThreshold | 0.8 | Scale up when 80% of workers are busy |
For advanced configuration, you can create a custom worker pool:
import { WorkerPool } from 'nepse-api-unofficial';
const pool = new WorkerPool({
minWorkers: 2,
maxWorkers: 20,
idleTimeout: 60_000,
taskTimeout: 30_000,
maxRetries: 5,
scalingThreshold: 0.6,
logger: {
log: (msg) => console.log(msg),
warn: (msg) => console.warn(msg),
error: (msg, err) => console.error(msg, err),
},
});Examples
High-Concurrency Usage
import {
get_market_status,
getSummary,
getTopGainers,
getTopLoosers,
getNepseIndex,
getWorkerPoolStats,
shutdownWorkerPool,
} from 'nepse-api-unofficial';
// Fire multiple requests concurrently
const [status, summary, gainers, losers, indices] = await Promise.all([
get_market_status(),
getSummary(),
getTopGainers(),
getTopLoosers(),
getNepseIndex(),
]);
console.log('Market:', status?.isOpen);
console.log('Summary:', summary);
console.log('Top Gainer:', gainers?.[0]);
console.log('Top Loser:', losers?.[0]);
console.log('NEPSE Index:', indices?.['NEPSE Index']);
// Check how the worker pool handled the load
console.log('Pool Stats:', getWorkerPoolStats());
// Always shutdown gracefully
await shutdownWorkerPool();Get Stock Information
import { get_security_detail, getMarket_depth } from 'nepse-api-unofficial';
// Get detailed information about NABIL bank
const nabil = await get_security_detail('NABIL');
console.log({
symbol: nabil?.security.symbol,
name: nabil?.security.securityName,
ltp: nabil?.securityDailyTradeDto?.lastTradedPrice,
});
// Get market depth
const depth = await getMarket_depth('NABIL');
console.log('Buy orders:', depth?.totalBuyQty);
console.log('Sell orders:', depth?.totalSellQty);TypeScript
This package is written in TypeScript and provides full type definitions:
import type {
MarketStatus,
Summary,
SecurityDetailResponse,
TopGainerLoosers,
IndexKey,
WorkerPoolOptions,
// ... and many more
} from 'nepse-api-unofficial';Zod Schemas
The package exports Zod schemas for runtime validation:
import {
StockDailyPriceSchema,
marketDepthResponse,
SupplyDemandSchema,
} from 'nepse-api-unofficial';
// Validate data at runtime
const validated = StockDailyPriceSchema.parse(data);Error Handling
All methods return null on failure instead of throwing exceptions:
const status = await get_market_status();
if (!status) {
console.log('Failed to fetch market status');
return;
}
// Safe to use status here
console.log('Market:', status.isOpen);SSL/TLS Note
NEPSE's API server sometimes has SSL certificate issues. This library temporarily disables SSL verification for API calls. While this is necessary for the API to work, be aware of this security consideration.
