Support for api key? #22

Closed TexZeTech closed 3 years ago

TexZeTech commented 4 years ago

I would like to use an api key from cryptopian just so I'm not limited to "free"

madnight commented 4 years ago

What kind of limitations does bitcoin-chart-cli have with the free api version?

I'm going to mark this as closed I had a second copy of my script hitting there servers at a stupid rate. Sorry for wasting your time.

so just refreshing four windows at 1min intervles results in

Sorry. The coin/currency pair BTC/CAD does not exist in the cryptocompare api.

{"Response":"Error","Message":"You are over your rate limit please upgrade your account!","HasWarning":false,"Type":99,"RateLimit":{"calls_made":{"second":1,"minute":1,"hour":1,"day":106,"month":75771,"total_calls":75771},"max_calls":{"second":20,"minute":300,"hour":3000,"day":10000,"month":75000}},"Data":{}}

So I will request the ability for an api key entry once again.

Should work with the newest version:

export CRYPTOCOMPARE_API_KEY=your_api_key
npx bitcoin-chart-cli@3.3.4
