Get price of token from pancakeswap (python) no longer working

Question

This URL used to work nicely to get a coins price from pancakeswap:

https://api.pancakeswap.info/api/v2/tokens/0x8076c74c5e3f5852037f31ff0093eeb8c8add8d3

...but it appears to no longer work.

I assume that pancakeswap has changed their code, and stack overflow questions like this one are outdated. So how do I get the price of a coin from pancakeswap using python?

@pingu I have updated the words 'line of code' to read 'url' — Adjam, Feb 19 '23 at 19:06
@MattDMo I've checked the api but when I use their example I get the response "Network error: Unexpected token i in JSON at position 0" Someone answered the question so I'll keep it here — Adjam, Feb 19 '23 at 19:08

The PancakeSwap API is dead and the repo is archived.

Read: https://github.com/pancakeswap/pancake-info-api/issues

Find another source of WebSockets until they fix this (I don't know if it's temporally either)
