Details

Dependabot

Now that we have a more robust test suite, we have installed and configured Dependabot to contribute pull requests for package updates.

Get Rates (new)

public Rates getRates() throws RateQueryException {}

Get Rate (new)

public Rate getRate(String baseCurrency, String currency) throws RateQueryException {}

Retrieve an Event Token (new)

public InvoiceEventToken getInvoiceEventToken(String invoiceId) throws BitPayException {}

Cancel Invoice by GUID (new)

Default call, will set forceCancel false.

public Invoice cancelInvoiceByGuid(String guid) throws BitPayException {

Cancel Invoice by GUID

Allow for forceCancel to be set explicitly.

public Invoice cancelInvoiceByGuid(String guid, Boolean forceCancel) throws BitPayException {}

Invoices now respect a custom GUID passed to them (bug fix)

• If the Invoice object sent to createInvoice() has setGuid() set, that GUID will be used for the invoice
• If the Invoice object sent to createInvoice() does not have setGuid() set, a UUIDv4 will be generated for you
