get_price

Get Price

Get the latest price and confidence interval for the requested price feed id. The price feed id is a 32-byte id written as a hexadecimal string; see the price feed ids (opens in a new tab) page to look up the id for a given symbol. The returned price and confidence are decimal numbers written in the form a * 10^e, where e is an exponent included in the result. For example, a price of 1234 with an exponent of -2 represents the number 12.34. The result also includes a timestamp which is the unix timestamp for the price update.

This function reverts if the on-chain price has not been updated within the last get_stale_price_threshold_secs seconds. The default valid time period is set to a reasonable default on each chain and is typically around 1 minute. If you would like to configure the valid time period, see get_price_no_older_than. If you want the latest price regardless of when it was updated, see get_price_unsafe.

Users of this method will typically invoke update_price_feeds to update the on-chain price before reading it. This step ensures that the on-chain price is fresh.
