banxicoapi 1.0.2

Client for Banxico API

Overview

BanxicoApi is a Python package designed to interact with the Banxico (Banco de México) API. It allows users to fetch economic and financial series data, including metadata, and provides methods to handle data ranges and specific series codes.

Usage

Initialization

You need to initialize the BanxicoApi class with your API token:

from banxicoapi.banxico_api import BanxicoApi

api_token = 'YOUR_API_TOKEN'
banxico_api = BanxicoApi(api_token)

Fetching Series Data

You can fetch series data using the get method. This method allows for various parameters to customize the data retrieval.

Basic Usage

Fetch data for a list of series:

series = ['SF43718', 'SF46410']
data = banxico_api.get(series)
print(data)

Fetching Data with Metadata

To include metadata in the response:

data_with_metadata = banxico_api.get(series, metadata=True)
print(data_with_metadata)

Fetching Opportuno Data

To fetch the most recent data available:

opportuno_data = banxico_api.get(series, oportuno=True)
print(opportuno_data)

Fetching Data for a Specific Date Range

You can specify a date range to fetch data:

start_date = '2022-01-01'
end_date = '2022-12-31'
data_in_range = banxico_api.get(series, start_date=start_date, end_date=end_date)
print(data_in_range)

To include metadata with date range data:

data_in_range_with_metadata = banxico_api.get(series, start_date=start_date, end_date=end_date, metadata=True)
print(data_in_range_with_metadata)

Fetching Metadata Only

If you only need the metadata for a list of series:

metadata = banxico_api.getMetadata(series)
print(metadata)

Fetching Data by Code instead of series ID

If you have predefined codes mapped to series, you can fetch data by code:

code = 'CF120'
data_by_code = banxico_api.getByCode(code)
print(data_by_code)

Methods Summary

get(series: List[str], start_date: str = None, end_date: str = None, oportuno: bool = False, metadata: bool = False) Fetches data for the specified series, optionally within a date range, and with metadata.

getMetadata(series: List[str]) Fetches metadata for the specified series.
