gem 'spree_coinbase'

Bundle your dependencies and run the installation generator:

bundle
bundle exec rails g spree_coinbase:install

After installing the gem, go to your Spree admin console and navigate to Configuration > Payment Methods > New Payment Method.

Configuration

Select "Spree::PaymentMethod::Coinbase" from the "Provider" dropdown, enter a name (like "Bitcoin") for the payment method, and click "Create."

New Payment Method

Go to https://coinbase.com/settings/api and click '+ New API Key' to generate an API key and secret for this plugin. You should create a 'HMAC' key with the permission 'merchant' only.

After generating the API key, click on the shortened representation of it (looks like 'kcyPDdpjgYk...') to view the full API Key + Secret. Copy and paste the API key and API secret into the respective fields on the Edit Payment Method page, then click "Update".

Remember to enable the API key on the https://coinbase.com/settings/api page by clicking the "Enable" link. If the API key is not enabled, the plugin will not work.

Edit Payment Method

The plugin should now be active!
