No response when running pycoingecko CoinGeckoAPI

Question

I do not receive any error after running the code, but there are also no response. Let me know if any other information is required to figure where went wrong.

Input

from pycoingecko import CoinGeckoAPI

cg = CoinGeckoAPI()

cg.ping()

cg.get_price(ids='bitcoin', vs_currencies='usd')

Output

aikenong@Aikens-MacBook-Air ~ % /usr/local/bin/python3 "/Users/aikenong/Desktop/crypto charts/charts.py"
aikenong@Aikens-MacBook-Air ~ % 

Answer 1

You forgot to use print command before the ping request.
I had the same problem using CoinGeckoAPI. I tried to run my script in Jupyter Notebook and saw that I received the output there, so I tried to use print(cg.ping()) and it finally displayed in the terminal. Although, I still don't understand how it really works.

Hope that helps you. :)
