Implementing a Live Dashboard
For developers looking to create a live dashboard that displays the current JIBOR rate, here’s a simple React component that fetches and displays the rate:
import React, { useEffect, useState } from 'react';
const JiborDashboard = () => {
const [jiborRate, setJiborRate] = useState(null);
const fetchJiborRate = async () => {
const response = await fetch('https://interestratesapi.com/api/v1/latest?symbols=JIBOR_1M&api_key=YOUR_KEY');
const data = await response.json();
setJiborRate(data.rates.JIBOR_1M);
};
useEffect(() => {
fetchJiborRate();
const interval = setInterval(fetchJiborRate, 60000); // Refresh every minute
return () => clearInterval(interval);
}, []);
return (
Current JIBOR 1-Month Rate
{jiborRate ? `${jiborRate}%` : 'Loading...'}
);
};
export default JiborDashboard;
This component fetches the latest JIBOR rate every minute and displays it on the dashboard, providing users with real-time updates.
