CoingeckoRuby is an easy-to-use client/wrapper for CoinGecko's awesome cryptocurrency API.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

  gem 'coingecko_ruby'

And then execute:

$ bundle install

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install coingecko_ruby

1. Require the gem if you're not using Rails or if your environment does not autoload libraries.

require 'coingecko_ruby'

2. Create a client instance.

client = CoingeckoRuby::Client.new

3. Use the client to fetch your desired data.

# Example: Fetching the current price of Bitcoin.
client.price('bitcoin')
