Finance...hooJSON(3)

✨ NAME ✨

Manual name vibes: Finance...hooJSON(3) β€” a User Contributed Perl Documentation page, section 3, for the module below. πŸ’…

Finance::Quote::CurrencyRates::YahooJSON β€” Obtain currency rates from https://query2.finance.yahoo.com/v11/finance/quoteSummary/...?modules=price πŸ€‘βœ¨


πŸ’… SYNOPSIS πŸ’…

okay bestie, here’s the exact setup, no improvising:

use Finance::Quote;

$q = Finance::Quote->new(currency_rates => {order => ['YahooJSON']});

$value = $q->currency('18.99 EUR', 'USD');

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

So this module fetches currency rates from https://query2.finance.yahoo.com/v11/finance/quoteSummary/...?modules=price and provides data to Finance::Quote to convert the first argument to the equivalent value in the currency indicated by the second argument. πŸ’±βœ¨

Heads up, bestie: this module is not the default currency conversion module for a Finance::Quote object. Like, do not assume it’s the main character default β€” it isn’t. 🫢
