# Frankfurter
|
|
|
|
[](https://github.com/hakanensari/frankfurter/actions)
|
|
|
|
[Frankfurter](https://www.frankfurter.app) is a free and open-source currency data API that tracks reference exchange rates published by the European Central Bank.
|
|
|
|
I host a public instance of the API at `api.frankfurter.app`.
|
|
|
|
## Getting Started
|
|
|
|
Get the latest exchange rates.
|
|
|
|
```http
|
|
GET /latest HTTP/1.1
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Get rates for a past date.
|
|
|
|
```http
|
|
GET /2000-01-03 HTTP/1.1
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Get rates for a period.
|
|
|
|
```http
|
|
GET /2010-01-01..2010-01-31 HTTP/1.1
|
|
```
|

Frankfurter was known as Fixer between 2012 and 2018. After selling the original domain, I relaunched under this name.
