Yahoo Compatibility

Status

Geocoding.Yahoo remains in the repository only for legacy compatibility. It should not be the default choice for new work.

Package

Install-Package Geocoding.Yahoo

When to Keep It

• You have an existing integration that still depends on Yahoo consumer credentials.
• You need a temporary compatibility bridge while retiring that dependency.

Minimal Setup

using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Threading;
using Geocoding;
using Geocoding.Yahoo;

CancellationToken cancellationToken = default;
IGeocoder geocoder = new YahooGeocoder(
    "your-consumer-key",
    "your-consumer-secret");

IEnumerable<Address> results = await geocoder.GeocodeAsync(
    "1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW Washington DC 20500",
    cancellationToken);

Operational Notes

• The provider is deprecated and intentionally absent from the sample app.
• Expect transport and HTTP failures to surface through YahooGeocodingException.
• Plan to migrate away from Yahoo instead of expanding usage.
