Blockchain API library (PHP, v1)
================================

[](#blockchain-api-library-php-v1)

An official PHP library for interacting with the blockchain.info API.

Getting Started
---------------

[](#getting-started)

This php library works with the [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/) package manager. Install it into your project by running the following command.

```
$ composer require valadanchik/blockchain dev-master

```

In order to use Wallet and CreateWallet functionality, you must provide an URL to an instance of [service-my-wallet-v3](https://github.com/blockchain/service-my-wallet-v3). Before using these functionalities, call \\Blockchain\\Blockchain::setServiceUrl to set the URL to the instance of of [service-my-wallet-v3](https://github.com/blockchain/service-my-wallet-v3).

In the php source, simply:

```
// Include the autoload.php from its vendor directory
require 'vendor/autoload.php'

// Create the base Blockchain class instance
$Blockchain = new \Blockchain\Blockchain();

// Needed before calling $Blockchain->Wallet or $Blockchain->Create
$Blockchain->setServiceUrl('http://localhost:3000');
```

All functionality is provided through the `Blockchain` object.

### Call Limits

[](#call-limits)

The [official documentation](https://blockchain.info/api) lists API call limits, which may be bypassed with an API code. If you use a code, enter it when you create the `Blockchain` object:

```
$Blockchain = new \Blockchain\Blockchain('http://localhost:3000', $my_api_code);
```

If you need an API code, you may request one [here](https://blockchain.info/api/api_create_code).

### Network Timeouts

[](#network-timeouts)

Set the `cURL` timeout, in seconds, with the `setTimeout` member function:

```
$Blockchain->setTimeout($timeout_seconds);
```

The default network timeout is `60` seconds.

A Note about Bitcoin Values
---------------------------

[](#a-note-about-bitcoin-values)

All Bitcoin values returned by the API are in string float format, in order to preserve full value precision. It is recommended that all arithmetic operations performed on Bitcoin values within PHP utilize the `bcmath` functions as follows:

##### `bcadd` Add Two Numbers

[](#bcadd-add-two-numbers)

```
$result = bcadd("101.234115", "34.92834753", 8); // "136.16246253"
```

##### `bcsub` Subtract Two Numbers

[](#bcsub-subtract-two-numbers)

```
$result = bcsub("101.234115", "34.92834753", 8); // "66.30576747"
```

##### `bcmul` Multiply Two Numbers

[](#bcmul-multiply-two-numbers)

```
$result = bcmul("101.234115", "34.92834753", 8); // "3535.940350613"
```

##### `bcdiv` Divide Two Numbers

[](#bcdiv-divide-two-numbers)

```
$result = bcdiv("101.234115", "34.92834753", 8); // "2.89833679"
```

The `8` in the final parameter of each `bcmath` function call represents the numerical precision to keep in the result.

More help on the `bcmath` functions can be found in the [PHP BC Math documentation](http://php.net/manual/en/ref.bc.php).
