Help

Coinget has 3 available commands:

Program options:
-c, --convert=SYM          display value in currency
-i, --coin-id=SYM          display specific crypto
-l, --limit=NUM            display NUM cryptos
-n, --no-color             disable color output
-p, --portfolio=file       use portfolio file
-s, --start=NUM            start displaying from given rank

Informational options:
-?, --help                 Give this help list
    --usage                Give a short usage message
-V, --version              Print program version

The -c option only supports AUD, BRL, CAD, CHF, CLP, CNY, CZK, DKK, EUR, GBP, HKD, HUF, IDR, ILS, INR, JPY, KRW, MXN, MYR, NOK, NZD, PHP, PKR, PLN, RUB, SEK, SGD, THB, TRY, TWD, USD, ZAR. The -i option should be the name of the crypto, for example bitcoin or ethereum.

Portfolio

Coinget automatically looks for a .coins file in your home directory if no file was given using the portfolio subcommand. If the file does not exist, it must be specified after the portfolio command or using the -p option.

The first line of this file must contain a currency (same as for -c option). The next lines must be space separated values containing the crypto id, the amount of coins and the investment in the given currency. So for example:

EUR
bitcoin 1.0001 100
ripple 20.2 20
litecoin 20 20
garlicoin 0.1 0.01

• libcurl

• and of course jsmn

The first two must be downloaded/installed. The JSON library is included as git sub module. Also the cryptocurrency information originates from https://coinmarketcap.com.

The code was developed on Linux, but also works on macOS.
