Hi all,

I wrote a small linux command line tool as a bash scripting learning project; it uses the CoinGecko-API and is capable of displaying all their supported crypto-currencies, as well as cross-currencies (>50 at the moment, including some cryptos and commodities gold and silver).

Enjoy!


Hey mate, nice script! I was very interested when i saw the topic here..
I wrote some scripts for similar purposes and you may be interested.
https://github.com/mountaineerbr/markets
Specially, i wrote the cgk.sh which uses CoinGecko API, too.
Syntax is something like:

Code:
$ cgk.sh 5+5 BTC CNY
804340.0000000000000000

It has many options and i hope it is robust, however if the user is not
connected to the internet or the error is from CoinGecko side, i dont care
to troubleshoot for the user too much..
