Discussion Where can I find a full list of commodities with symbolic names?

[tdjs]

Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction - I'm working on a trading tool at the moment and need a list of all commodities, including both their names and symbols.

I have found this list, but it's not completely up to date (notice it is missing tritium and I'm sure some others). Does anyone here know where I can find a complete and up to date (live if possible) list of commodities? Or maybe an API endpoint that can return them?

Thanks!

I think inara and eddb are not outdated. You can use them.
The icons depend on the category. For example Salvage, metal, chemical etc

There's a list of commodities on https://eddb.io/api , don't know if that's the sort of thing you are looking for?

Sorry, by symbol I don't mean icons - I mean the symbolic name of the commodity, as used in the EDDN schema. I probably also should have mentioned that I need the data in a readily consumable format such as JSON or CSV.

The JSON data from EDDB is the kind of thing I'm looking for, but unfortunately doesn't contain symbolic names.

https://github.com/EDCD/FDevIDs has commodity.csv and rare_commodity.csv.

Thanks, that's exactly what I was looking for.
