• Installation

Latest version: 1.0.10

npm install coingecko-api

• CoinGecko API Documentation

For complete API documentation, up-to-date parameters, responses and errors, please refer to https://www.coingecko.com/api/docs/v3.

• Quick Start Example

//1. Import coingecko-api
const CoinGecko = require('coingecko-api');

//2. Initiate the CoinGecko API Client
const CoinGeckoClient = new CoinGecko();

//3. Make calls
var func = async() => {
  let data = await CoinGeckoClient.ping();
};

• Constants

This module provides helper constants for use in calls.

• CoinGecko.ORDER

Order results in specific calls by using one of the following values.

• CoinGecko.STATUS_UPDATE_CATEGORY

Available status update categories to filter by.

• CoinGecko.STATUS_UPDATE_PROJECT_TYPE

Available status update project types to filter by.

• CoinGecko.EVENT_TYPE

List of event types (most recent from CoinGeckoClient.events.fetchTypes())

• Making Calls

All calls using the CoinGeckoClient are asynchronous.

All calls are returned in the following format:

{
