Fiddling-with-minfin 0.0.1

A small library for getting info about Ukrainian banks

Retrieval of info about currency rates in Ukranian banks

Frankly speaking it was a real hassle, but I made it somewhat working

Quick functional description:

 # converts currency into a numeric code(do not ask me about it NBU says it is called "r030")
 
print(get_numeric("USD"))
#output: 840

 

# opposite of the previous one

print(get_alph(978))
# output: EUR

 

# gets info about all banks on this page :  https://minfin.com.ua/

print(print(ask_minfin('USD',(2022,3,11))))
# output:
2022-03-11
[{'bank': 'PrivatBank', 'r030': 840, 'cc': 'USD', 'rate': 29.255, 'date': '11.03.2022'}, {'bank': 'Raiffeisen Bank', 'r030': 840, 'cc': 'USD', 'rate': 29.25, 'date': '11.03.2022'}, ...)

 

# does the same stuff prevoius one does but return date for a period

print(ask_minfin_period("USD",(2015,3,4),(2021,4,5)))
# output:
 a gigantic list of lists of dicts

 

# these two just save .json and .csv files correspondingly 
save_json("mm.json",ask_minfin_period("USD",(2015,11,2),(2021,1,2)))
save_csv("mm.csv",ask_minfin_period("USD",(2015,11,2),(2021,1,2)))

 

# the most fun there:
(plotable() is required removes data that is not present in all dicts i.e. ensure that the  data is valid for plotting)
banks=["BTA Bank","PrivatBank"]
plot_data([i for i in plotable(ask_minfin_period("USD",(2015,11,2),(2021,1,2))) if i["bank"] in banks])

# it will plot a graph of values per year of banks you specify (please do not throw all of them in, it is a mess then)

# the same stuff but per month

banks=["BTA Bank","PrivatBank"]
plot_data([i for i in plotable(ask_minfin_period("USD",(2015,11,2),(2021,1,2),by='month')) if i["bank"] in banks])

Features

• do not know, maybe a simple caching to speed up the process a little cause I had to use translator to translate from Ukrainan names of banks, and it was taking quite a time, so I decided to help it a little
• maybe something else, do not remember
