Changelog

Sprime is a unified JSON API for weather, crypto, and news in consistent JSON.
This page tracks every release so you can upgrade with confidence.

2026

v2.2.0 LATEST

Latest published release, recommended unless you need an older version.

  • Added: GET /v1/context, which pulls weather, crypto, and news in a single call so dashboards need fewer round trips.
  • Added: /v1/context accepts location, lat/lon, coin/symbol, and category with sensible defaults.
  • Improved: If one data source is down, /v1/context still returns the others instead of failing entirely.
  • Improved: /v1/news and batch news try multiple providers before returning empty.
  • Fixed: Cache reads and writes are now properly awaited, preventing stale data on all endpoints.
  • Fixed: Quota tracking now counts /v1/webhooks/* and /v1/echo requests.
  • Improved: /v1/context now appears in the GET /v1/endpoints discovery response.

Webhook docs

v2.1.0

  • Added: GET /v1/crypto/trending for currently trending coins.
  • Added: GET /v1/crypto/rankings for top coins by market cap, with pagination.
  • Added: market_cap field included in crypto price responses.
  • Improved: Usage tracking writes batched to reduce backend write volume.
  • Added: fresh=true on weather endpoint to bypass cache and fetch live data.
