coindesk

Bitcoin price index API powered by coindesk.com.

coindesk = "0.1.0"

Because this is an async library you will need an async runtime like async_std or tokio.

Example:

use coindesk::Bitcoin;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
    let data = Bitcoin::get().await.unwrap();

    println!("currency: {}, rate: {}, description: {}, symbol: {}", data.usd.code, data.usd.rate, data.usd.description, data.usd.symbol);
    println!("currency: {}, rate: {}, description: {}, symbol: {}", data.gbp.code, data.gbp.rate, data.gbp.description, data.gbp.symbol);
    println!("currency: {}, rate: {}, description: {}, symbol: {}", data.eur.code, data.eur.rate, data.eur.description, data.eur.symbol);
    println!("time: {}", data.time);
}

Output:

currency: USD, rate: 57532.8599, description: United States Dollar, symbol: $
currency: GBP, rate: 41359.4525, description: British Pound Sterling, symbol: £
currency: EUR, rate: 47927.864, description: Euro, symbol: €
time: 2021-05-05 15:58:00 UTC

The time field implements chrono::DateTime for integration with the rest of your project.
