Title: blockchain.info ticker now not working? Post by: dozerz on December 16, 2014, 12:31:55 PM i have the following code running that has suddenly stopped working yesterday to get btc price in usd
$file = file_get_contents("http://blockchain.info/ticker"); $vars = json_decode($file, true); $usd = $vars['USD']['15m']; has something recently changed in the api? offering a bounty to fix this. Title: Re: blockhain.info ticker now not working? Post by: OnkelPaul on December 16, 2014, 01:20:28 PM Don't know why it's not working for you, so I can't fix that.
The data returned from http://blockchain.info/ticker looks ok, I can't run it through your PHP code at the moment but that shouldn't matter since you didn't change it. I noticed that the data contains unicode chars for currency symbols, but I don't think that is new, so it should just work. But you might want to run a simple PHP test program to check for that. I can offer one fix for your subject line, though: it's blockchain.info, not blockhain.info. Do I get a bounty now? (just kidding) Onkel Paul Title: Re: blockchain.info ticker now not working? Post by: dozerz on December 16, 2014, 01:31:02 PM thanks have updated the subject line :)
the next line is below but is now returning nothing, are you interested in fixing this? $net_usd = number_format((($usd) * (100 - Settings::fee)) / 100, 2); Title: Re: blockchain.info ticker now not working?
