Install

Lets begin by installing the library by Composer:

$ composer require olakunlevpn/bitcoin_ng

Usage

You can then convert Bitcoin to any currency (ISO 4217 fiat or crypto) by:

use olakunlevpn\BitcoinNairaConverter\Converter;

$convert = new Converter;              // uses Coinbase as default provider
echo $convert->toCurrency('NGN', 0.5); // 2,250,50.00
echo $convert->toCurrency('LTC', 0.5); // 10.12345678

or you can use the helper function for convenience:

// uses Coinbase as default provider
echo to_currency('NGN', 0.5); // 2,250,50.00
echo to_currency('LTC', 0.5); // 10.12345678

You can also convert any currency (ISO 4217 fiat or crypto) to Bitcoin:

use olakunlevpn\BitcoinNairaConverter\Converter;

$convert = new Converter;         // uses Coinbase as default provider
echo $convert->toBtc(10000, 'NGN'); // 0.0036664
echo $convert->toBtc(20, 'LTC');  // 1.12345678

and it also has its helper function for convenience:

// uses Coinbase as default provider
echo to_btc(10000, 'NGN'); // 0.0036664
echo to_btc(20, 'LTC');  // 2.12345678

You can use different exchange rates from providers:

use olakunlevpn\BitcoinNairaConverter\Converter;
use olakunlevpn\BitcoinNairaConverter\Provider\CoinbaseProvider;
use olakunlevpn\BitcoinNairaConverter\Provider\CoindeskProvider;
use olakunlevpn\BitcoinNairaConverter\Provider\BitpayProvider;

$convert = new Converter(new CoinbaseProvider);
$convert = new Converter(new CoindeskProvider);
$convert = new Converter(new BitpayProvider);

or if you prefer to use the helper functions:

echo to_currency('NGN', 0.5, new CoindeskProvider); // 2,250,50.00
echo to_currency('LTC', 0.5, new BitpayProvider);   // 10.12345678
echo to_btc(10000, 'NGN', new CoindeskProvider);      // 0.00045678
echo to_btc(20, 'LTC', new BitpayProvider);         // 2.12345678

You can specify cache expire time (ttl) on provider by:

new CoinbaseProvider($httpClient, $psr16CacheImplementation, 5); // cache expires in 5mins, defaults to 60mins
