NAME

Finance::BlockIO - Perl wrapper to JSON-based Block.io API

VERSION

Version 0.01

SYNOPSIS

    use Finance::BlockIO;
    
    my $api_key = "gobbledegook";
    
    my $response = get_new_address($api_key, "foo");

DESCRIPTION

Finance::BlockIO provides a bare interface to the Block.io JSON-based API, using WWW::Curl::Simple to make requests and returning a Perl data structure created from any JSON response received.

You'll probably need an API key (and therefore an account) at Block.io in order to actually use this.

This documentation is not a replacement for the actual API documentation, which can be found at https://block.io/api/detailed/curl.
