Change API-call URL: api.co2signal.com not available, is now api.electricitymaps.com

[Panzerkrokette99]

The URL to API-call of co2signal.com seems outdated. co2signal.com redirects to (https://www.electricitymaps.com/). api.co2signal.com is not responding. API docs are found here: https://portal.electricitymaps.com/developer-hub/api/reference#carbon-intensity-latest

corresponding code: codecarbon/core/co2_signal.py

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

• Add the co2_signal_api_token in .codecarbon.config.
• Run Code with tracking.
• Get Error: [codecarbon ERROR @ 22:50:14] co2_signal.get_emissions: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='api.co2signal.com', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /v1/latest?lat=49.4823&lon=8.4397 (Caused by NameResolutionError("<urllib3.connection.HTTPSConnection object at 0x7f7ff00840d0>: Failed to resolve 'api.co2signal.com' ([Errno -2] Name or service not known)")) >>> Using CodeCarbon's data.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Linux-6.17.0-4-cachyos-x86_64-with-glibc2.42
• Python Version 3.10.19
• CodeCarbon Version v3.0.8

Let me know if I can assist with more detailed information.

Hi @Panzerkrokette99,

Thanks for reporting this.

We know that the name has changed but it's a big problem if the old url stop working... We will fix it.

Can you test : #980 ?

Are you a long time user of CO2Signal ?
Your token from CO2Signal is still valid for https://portal.electricitymaps.com ?

Hi @benoit-cty,

Thank you very much for your quick response.
How can I test it?
As of right now, I have only installed codecarbon via pip install. How can I get a version of codecarbon installed with your changes?

No, I'm not a long time user of co2signal API. I recently tried to use the feature of codecarbon to get live data from the co2signal API, but could not get it running. After getting an API token for electricitymaps and some testing and research on both docs of electricitymaps and codecarbon I figured that the URL is outdated. Since I'm not a programmer, my options to fix it myself are limited. But I have looked into your changes, and they look promising.
Please let me know if and how I can help you further with that.

It's now published in 3.1.1, so you just have to update with pip install -U codecarbon.
