Litcoin Price website...scrape friendly. | ltcprice.info

in #litecoin7 years ago

Howdy. I wanted to show my support to the Litecoin community and made a price web page that displays the Litecoin price. Updated every minute. Nothing else. No ads. Etc.

Build was pretty straight forward and anybody can do it on their own. Information is a simple curl from the Coinmarketcap API with grep cleaning. Refreshes via 1 minute cronjob per their API restrictions.

*/1 * * * * curl --request GET https://api.coinmarketcap.com/v1/ticker/litecoin/ | grep price_usd | grep -Eo "[0-9]+.[0-9]+"

I'll keep it up for as long as I can.
