Title: Does mybitcoin.com have a public API? Post by: Rage on May 14, 2011, 07:27:54 AM Hello Everyone,
So I'm in the process of developing a new service for small or mobile merchants who want to easily accept Bitcoin payments but am looking for a service that I can tie into. Right now, I like MyBitcoin but can't find any details on if they have a public API or not. Does anyone know? If not, do you know of any Bitcoin services like MyBitcoin that do? Specifically, I need to have the ability to: - Programatically create a new MyBitcoin (or other service) account - Generate new Bitcoin addresses - Query the service for a balance on an account - Issue payments from an account Thanks!

Quote - Generate new Bitcoin addresses Also not possible. You just get one if I'm correct. Quote - Query the service for a balance on an account You can query your own account. Quote - Issue payments from an account Thanks! You can do that from your own account. https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/MyBitcoin_SCI Rage [/quote] Title: Re: Does mybitcoin.com have a public API?

I've been working on something like this, but it probably won't be ready for a few weeks. Title: Re: Does mybitcoin.com have a public API? Post by: ryepdx on May 15, 2011, 11:56:17 AM You can do all of these things with Bitcoin Pouch. It exposes a JSON-RPC API similar to the one the official client does. It lives at https://bitcoinpouch.com/api/bitcoind, but please note you will need a Bitcoin Pouch account to use it.
You can play with it via an interactive terminal at https://bitcoinpouch.com/api/bitcoind/browse Also note that we are in beta testing, so please report any bugs you find! Thanks. :-) |
