Schnellstart

JavaScript — cheapest diesel in Europe

const { data } = await fetch("https://openvan.camp/api/fuel/prices").then(r => r.json());

const cheapest = Object.values(data)
  .filter(c => c.region === "europe" && c.prices.diesel !== null)
  .sort((a, b) => a.prices.diesel - b.prices.diesel)
  .slice(0, 5);

cheapest.forEach(c => console.log(`${c.country_name}: ${c.prices.diesel} ${c.currency}/L`));

JavaScript — convert to USD using currency rates

const [{ data }, { rates }] = await Promise.all([
  fetch("https://openvan.camp/api/fuel/prices").then(r => r.json()),
  fetch("https://openvan.camp/api/currency/rates").then(r => r.json()),
]);

// Convert any price to USD/liter
function toUSD(price, currency, unit) {
  let usd = (price / rates[currency]) * rates["USD"];
  return unit === "gallon" ? usd / 3.78541 : usd;
}

const de = data["DE"];
console.log(`Germany diesel: $${toUSD(de.prices.diesel, de.currency, de.unit).toFixed(3)}/L`);

Python — countries with LPG

import requests

data = requests.get("https://openvan.camp/api/fuel/prices").json()["data"]

lpg = [(v["country_name"], v["prices"]["lpg"], v["currency"])
       for v in data.values() if v["prices"]["lpg"] is not None]

for name, price, currency in sorted(lpg, key=lambda x: x[1])[:10]:
    print(f"{name}: {price} {currency}/L")
