# Response: {"min_float": 0.1, "max_float": 0.7, "wears": ["MW", "FT", "WW"]}

2. Steam Fee Calculation (Accurate Pricing)

Purpose: Calculate exact Steam Community Market fees for profit/loss analysis

Library: /lib/steam-fees.js

Fee Formula:

Fee Percentage = 10% + ((price - $0.20) / ($1800 - $0.20)) * 3.05%

Example Usage:

# Calculate what seller receives from $100 sale
POST /api/pricing/seller-receives

GET /api/portfolio/snapshot/history/testuser123?granularity=daily&period=30d
# Returns array of snapshots with value, profit, ROI over time

# Get chart data for visualization
GET /api/portfolio/chart/testuser123?granularity=daily&days=30

Migration File:

/migrations/add_snapshot_granularity.sql

  • Run with: psql -U cs2user -h 127.0.0.1 cs2floatapi -f migrations/add_snapshot_granularity.sql
  • Status: ✅ Executed successfully (6 investments migrated)

📈 API Performance

Caching Strategy:

  • CSGO-API Data: 24-hour cache (5.2MB skins.json)
  • Portfolio Snapshots: Upsert logic prevents duplicates
  • Price Data: Existing 5-minute cache from original API

Response Times (Estimated):

  • Float range lookup: ~10ms (from cache)
  • Doppler phase lookup: <5ms (in-memory map)
  • Snapshot creation: ~200-500ms (depends on portfolio size)
  • P&L calculation: ~100-300ms (depends on item count)

🔧 Testing Status

Verified Working:

  • ✅ CSGO-API doppler phase endpoint (tested: Ruby/Sapphire)
  • ✅ Item search endpoint (tested: AK-47 search, returned 20 results)
  • ✅ Steam fee calculation (tested: $100 → $89.83 seller receives)
  • ✅ Profit calculation with fees
  • ✅ Database migration (6 investments migrated successfully)
  • ✅ User with investments found in database (test_user_001, 5 items)

Pending Testing:

  • ⏳ Snapshot creation endpoint (needs server restart to load new code)
  • ⏳ Partial sales endpoint
  • ⏳ P&L breakdown endpoint
  • ⏳ Price override functionality
  • ⏳ Chart data generation

🎓 Lessons Learned

What Worked Well:

  1. Modular Library Design - Separate files for CSGO-API and Steam fees
  2. Database Migrations - Clean SQL migration files for version control
  3. Comprehensive Research - Analyzing 3 repos provided excellent patterns
  4. Caching Strategy - 24-hour cache prevents excessive API calls
  5. Backward Compatibility - Zero breaking changes to existing API

Challenges Encountered:

  1. Module Compatibility - node-fetch v3 requires ESM, v2 works with CommonJS
  2. Server Restart Issues - Old server processes needed proper termination
  3. Date Handling - Timezone considerations for snapshot timestamps
  4. Cache Size - skins.json is 5.2MB, requires directory creation

Best Practices Applied:

  • ✅ Error handling in all endpoints
  • ✅ Input validation with clear error messages
  • ✅ Consistent response format ({success: true, ...})
  • ✅ winston logging for debugging
  • ✅ PostgreSQL parameterized queries (SQL injection prevention)
  • ✅ Upsert logic to prevent duplicate snapshots
