Wrapper for financial database APIs

Project description

HongXiongMao Refuel

Toolbox for importing data from various financial sources; for a personal project so if you are here by accident I highly advise you look elsewhere.

Usage

There are no plans to go into any material depth here, so these are just notes to job my own memory.

Snowflake

Snowflake objects here specifically related to the snowflake-connector so connecting to a database. There are three main functions. rsa_token_stuff which returns pkb given a password string and private_key_file.p8 snowflake_connect which returns a snowflake-python-connector connection, snowflake_sql_engine returns an SQL Alchemy engine object. Not being a database pro, both seem to work but I favour the engine.

Both functions require the same inputs:

def snowflake_sql_engine(
    user_details: dict,                     # dictionary of required inputs
    method='rsa',                           # can be 'rsa' or 'user' 
    password: None | str = None,            # password if using rsa
    private_key_file: None | str = None     # file location of .p8 file if using RSA
    ):

To help there are also templates for the user_details:

SNOWFLAKE_RSA_USER_DETAILS_TEMPLATE = dict(
    user="USERNAME",
    password="",
    account="xx123455",
    region="eu-west-1",
    warehouse="LAB_SOMETHING_WH",
    database="LAB_SOMETHING",
    # schema="",)

As well as some helper functions check_compatibility tests a df vs. a snowflake table for compatability (could be a bit buggy) sql_append_with_drop_duplicates does as it says on the tin

Installation

Bloomberg API

To make Bloomberg calls, the blpapi package must be installed; we then extend the excellent xbbg package. Unfortunately, installing of blpapi can be a pain in the backside. I can't get pyproject.toml to correctly install blpapi as a dependency.

Using pip instruction from the Bloomberg website

python -m pip install --index-url=https://bcms.bloomberg.com/pip/simple blpapi

Poetry requires 2 steps

  1. Set up Bloomberg as a source,
  2. installing blpapi
poetry source add --priority=supplemental bloomberg https://bcms.bloomberg.com/pip/simple/
poetry add --source bloomberg blpapi

Snowflake SQL

In order to get snowflake connectors working we've had to install several additional packages. Snowflake is very picky about which versions of pyarrow etc... are installed and requires old versions.

snowflake-connector-python = "^3.2.0"
snowflake-sqlalchemy = "^1.5.0"
pyarrow = ">=10.0.1, <10.1.0"
cryptography = "^41.0.5"

Publishing to PyPi

I'm no pro at deploying packages to PyPi, so these are my notes for deployment of a poetry package. For reference, I followed this tutorial

Key points:

  • (PyPi account is required)[https://pypi.org/manage/account/#account-emails]
  • (Configure Poetry)[https://python-poetry.org/docs/repositories/#configuring-credentials]
  • poetry build
  • poetry publish
# configure API key
poetry config pypi-token.pypi <pypi-reallyREALLYllongKEY...>
