Bitstamp HTTP API
=================

[](#bitstamp-http-api)

This package is for communicating with the API of Bitstamp

For now the implementation only has the public methods exposed but will contain the private methods in the future

[![Minimum PHP Version](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/dcd4b4aec2c1709157fa6a2c050f709d75cde9552a79cfff0b70a97fad7281ae/68747470733a2f2f696d672e736869656c64732e696f2f62616467652f7068702d253345253344253230372e312d3838393242462e7376673f7374796c653d666c61742d737175617265)](https://php.net/)

Installation
============

[](#installation)

This package can be installed using composer

```
composer require djansen20/bitstamp-http-api dev-master

```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

In order to use this library include the following namespace into your project

```
use Bitstamp\BitstampHttpApi;
```

### Request limit

[](#request-limit)

Bitstamp has implemented a request limit to prevent one IP flooding their servers. When using this package make sure you limit your calls to 600 requests per 10 minutes. Or risk getting your IP banned.

If you wish to use this API for real time data please refer to Bitstamp's [websocket API](https://www.bitstamp.net/websocket/) instead.

### Trading pair constants

[](#trading-pair-constants)

Most API calls require you to provide a trading pair you wish to address. You can make use of the CurrencyPair class constants to get the right strings you need to pass to a method. Example:

```
use \Bitstamp\Models\CurrencyPair;
$pair = CurrencyPair::BTCUSD;
```

If you do not wish to use the CurrencyPair constants you need to provide a valid trading pair in the form of a lowercase string.

### Public methods

[](#public-methods)

This package allows you to use the public API without supplying account credentials. To retrieve an instance of the public API call the following method.

```
$api = BitstampHttpApi::PublicApi();
```

Now you can start requesting data from the API.
