Live Sandbox failing with 'URLSearchParams is not a constructor' and module problem

[o-ja]

Hi,

1. I see that the live sandbox has error at the moment (without modifing anything): https://codesandbox.io/s/yahoo-finance2-312x2?file=/src/index.ts

{
"name": "TypeError",
"message": "URLSearchParams is not a constructor"
}

2. I also have problems with autoc module with basic example given of querying "GOO". Returns error:

{
"message": "invalid json response body at https://autoc.finance.yahoo.com/autoc?region=1&lang=en&query=GOO reason: Unexpected token < in JSON at position 0",
"type": "invalid-json"
}

Am I missing something or are this actual bugs? If bugs, happy to file than as actual issues.

I have the problems with both yahoo-finance2 versions 1.13.1 and latest 2.0.1.

Thanks, @o-ja. Confirming the issue. Will need a bit of time to investigate further. Thanks for reporting.

Thanks a lot! Monitoring the progress. 🙏

Thanks, @o-ja. I believe this is working now. Please confirm when you have a chance.

@gadicc, I see that 1) live sandbox fixed as it returns correctly the price info. Thanks 🙏

For 2) autoc module. Still I received error when running the following example code given in the docs (other than query should not be required):

import yahooFinance from "yahoo-finance2";
import { show } from "./utils";

show(async () => {
  const query = "Goo";
  const result = await yahooFinance.autoc(query);

  // 2. Put a "." after result to explore
  return result;

  // 3. Try change "quoteSummary" above to something else
});

Error:

{
  "name": "SyntaxError",
  "message": "Unexpected token < in JSON at position 0"
}

Maybe I'm doing something wrong? Let me know.

Ooh sorry, forgot to come back to this. I had a look now and it seems Yahoo have just totally erased their autoc server. The autocomplete on Yahoo Finance uses search under the hood anyways, so check that out, and I've opened #337 for us to update the docs about this. Thanks for reporting!

Ooooh, nice one! I'll move to the search one. Thanks for letting me know. 👏 👏

Great work, by the way, on the whole library. I have been enjoying it a lot. 💪

Thanks for your kind words, @o-ja! I may have started the project but we've had some incredible contributions from a great many people, you can see them all at the bottom of the README :) Reports like yours also go a long way in keeping up to date with Yahoo's (basically internal) API which is constantly changing, so thanks for all your great contributions too 🙏

I am facing this error while running yahooFinance.search, any ideas on the root cause?
