Blockchain for Laravel

A fully-featured API to make use of Blockchain.info API.

Installation

Just add the package to your composer.json

"maurocasas/blockchain": "*"

And then run in your Laravel root directory

composer update

Open up app/config/app.php and under $providers array() register the package provider

'MauroCasas\Blockchain\BlockchainServiceProvider'

This will also register the facade for you to use, for example

Blockchain::getdifficulty()

If you're going to create wallets, and send funds using this package, you need to register an API key from Blockchain.info or you'll get rejected.

You can request an API Key at Blockchain.info (Usually takes a day or two)

Usage

Create Wallets

Create Wallets API Documentation

To create wallets you'll need an API key, yes or yes.

Blockchain::createWallet('MAIN PASSWORD', 'PRIVATE KEY', 'LABEL', 'EMAIL ADDRESS')

Only Main Password is mandatory, you can ommit the rest if you want.

Query API

Query API Documentation

You can use any function in the documentation with the exact same name, so for example I could do

Blockchain::probability()

If you want to use any function which requires a parameter, just send it in the function, for example:

Blockchain::getsentbyaddress('PUBLIC KEY')
