cryptocurrencies's Introduction

cryptocurrencies

A JSON list of all the cryptocurrency symbols and names

The currency list is a JSON file that can be used wherever.

Install

$ npm install --save cryptocurrencies

Usage

const cryptocurrencies, {symbols} = require('cryptocurrencies');

cryptocurrencies.BTC;
//=> 'Bitcoin'

console.log(symbols);
//=> ['42', ... 'BTC', 'ETH', 'LTC', ...]

Cryptocurrencies

There are currently 12242 cryptocurrencies represented*:

Building

The JSON list, the currency icons, and parts of this README file are auto-generated from the coin list made available by the cryptocompare coinlist API, and can be updated automatically by running:

$ npm run build

💡 Note that this build routine synchronously downloads the currency icons and saves them to the images directory. This means that the build routine takes a few minutes, since it has to process thousands of images.

cryptocurrencies's Issues

XRP

Thank you very much for everything.

A suggestion, you could put "XRP" as "Ripple".

Match with Wikidata items

Example : EagleCoin -> https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q20639637

Note: use sameAs: "https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q20639637"

Use collapsable markdown on Readme's Currency List

The currency list is growing fast! It is nearly 4,000 items long 😱 so it takes forever to view.

An idea could be that when the currency list is generated, (since the Readme is auto-generated when we run npm run build, it could also sort the list of currencies, and instead of just printing out a full table of currencies, it breaks up the sorted currencies with some collapsable markdown and make a list like this:

0-9

Table with 0-9 currencies here

Table of currencies starting with 'A' here

Table of currencies starting with 'B' here

Find ways to get the coin icons

Per reddit users, it would be great if we could include the coin icon for each coin. What your thoughts on how we can handle this?

Build a post-build routine to inject overrides

As noted in PR #10, sometimes the cryptocompare API returns typos in the currency names, and manually updating these typos after each build sounds horrible, so let's automate it!

I propose that we keep a list of updates to the apply to the generated JSON after it has been built, and we can start with the only item on this list being:

const postUpdates = {
 'VertCoin': 'Vertcoin'
}

and I am sure more will follow.

distinguish criptocurrencies from tokens

Hi, how can we distinguish crypto currencies from tokens in the specified list? Thanks.

Procoin

Coinlist API endpoint

Hi there!

Cryptocompare is going to change its coinlist API endpoint from: https://www.cryptocompare.com/api/data/coinlist/ to https://min-api.cryptocompare.com/data/all/coinlist.

Message: "Coin list succesfully returned! This api is moving to https://min-api.cryptocompare.com/data/all/coinlist, please change the path.",

Bitcoin Cash / BCC?

Why is BCH mapped to Bitcoin Cash / BCC? Surely the name is just Bitcoin Cash? I understand that a few exchanges use a different symbol, but that's the same with bitcoin (XBT) and I'm sure some others. Can we change it?

BCC is listed as BCCoin

Isn't the symbol for Bitconnect BCC?

Update names

Antshare is still ant and should be udpated to NEO

Symbol change for BitCurrency

BitCurrency (BTCR) is now symbol BC

Cheers!

Please list a coin Blockchain

sorry it is a test test

Added functionality

This list could be much more useful if it contained an object for each coin instead of a parameter list:

{
    "name" : "Bitcoin",
    "symbol" : "bts",
    "uri" : { 
        "coin": "bitcoin",
        "amount" : "amount",
        "message" : "message",
        "label" : "label"
    }
}

The URI object would be particularly useful because it's required for wallets that present QR codes. These URI's don't use the symbol, they use a long name for the currency an those lists aren't easy to find freely. Also, many coin URI's have a different set of terminology for the message. Some call it a memo. So, if you could normalize this through this library, it would be pretty powerful as well.

Error ECONNRESET LTCR Error

Hi. When trying to get data, I see an error like in the screenshot.
How can I fix this?

MIOTA

Please consider adding MIOTA which is the correct supply symbol for IOTA.
