Currency-Converter-Api

A sample app that implements currency conversion API.

Project

Implementing a NodeJS API to receive currency conversion rates from the following api:

https://free.currconv.com/api/

Getting Started

Clone the project repository by running the command below if you use SSH

git clone git@github.com:mdrijwan/createorder-api.git

If you use https, use this instead

git clone https://github.com/mdrijwan/createorder-api.git

Run the command below to install NPM dependencies

npm install

This project is built on stand alone TypeScript so no compilation needed. But you can compile the TypeScript files to JavaScript anyway

npm run compile

Then start the server and follow the instructions in the console.

npm run start

Let's get started!

Methods

• To see list of currencies

  • GET/dev/currencies

• To see list of countries

  • GET/dev/countries

• To convert the currencies (pass the params in query)

  • GET/dev/convert

  Example: GET/localhost:3000/dev/convert?from=USD&to=MYR&amount=100

Implementation

This API will be consumed by a VueJS App to display the currency conversion
