What happened to old currency-api

[fawazahmed0]

I got email from GitHub to remove currency-api repository, due to large size. I have migrated things to cloudflare and npm. Please read the migration guide to migrate from old currency-api.

thanks for the clarification, let's home NPM will be fine with it.

@fawazahmed0 I just wanted to say a big thank you for providing and maintaining this service 🙏

Great idea to add the cloudflare fallback URL.

@fawazahmed0 is there a way to download the data between 2022 and the migration? thanks

Old Currency API:

json = fetchJSON(`/currencies/{fromCurrency}/{toCurrency}`)
rate = json[toCurrency]

New Currency API:

json = fetchJSON(`/currencies/{fromCurrency}`)
rate = json[fromCurrency][toCurrency]

Guys I tried this and it is working.

const baseURL = `https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@fawazahmed0/currency-api@latest/v1/currencies`;

const URL = `${baseURL}/${fromCurrency}.json`;

// Use it in async func. obviously
try {
        let response = await fetch(URL);

        let responseJSON = await response.json();

       let rate = responseJSON[fromCurrency][toCurrency];

        if (!response.ok) {
            throw new Error(`Network response was not ok`);
        }
    } catch (error) {
        msg.innerHTML = `Failed to fetch exchange rate. Try again later.`;
        console.error("Fetch error:", error);
        return;
    }
