Bitcoin Rates comes with a built in API. To use this API in mobile apps you have three endpoints.
api/v1/rates – Which will give you all the current rates
api/v1/rates/{currency} – Which will give you the current rates for that currency (ex: api/v1/rates/usd)
api/v1/calculate/{amount}/{currency} – Which will give you the current rate for x amount of bitcoins (ex: api/v1/calculate/2/usd)
How to Install
Once you have downloaded the zip file from CodeCanyon.com
Extract bitcoinrates.zip
Upload the files to your server via FTP
Make sure the folder/file(s) is able to be written to via the server (0775 permissions)
In the browser, navigate to where you uploaded the folder
Fill out the form with your information/preferences
Click “install”. This will create the config file and unescape the htaccess files for the script/API
For security reasons, you should remove the install folder from the server when you are done!
You’re all set!
Too edit the script, you can either go through this process again or just open library/config.php in any text editor to edit
