fx2obp 0.2

Convert exchange rates to OBP format, and optionally post to an OBP instance

What

• Convert a http://www.floatrates.com/json-feeds.html daily rates json src file to valid Open Bank Project payload.

• HTTP PUT them to an Open Bank Project endpoint to populate the database via the fx api call

• Uses python3

Setup

• You must have a valid Direct Login token
• You must have the CanCreateFxRateAtAnyBank permission

export ENDPOINT=<api.example.com>
export AUTH_TOKEN=<direct-login-token>

Options

• WRITE_TO_FILE - Write output to disk
• POST_TO_OBP - Post to Open Bank Project api endpoint

Note: By default this wont post to the enpoint. This is to allow testing to post to an endpoint, set the environment up:

export WRITE_TO_FILE=False
export POST_TO_OBP=True

The above allows you to test before blasting an endpint with invalid data.

Run

pip install -r requirements.txt
python3 convert.py
