Wrapper for financial database APIs

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.

Bloomberg API

In order to make calls to Bloomberg we must have the blpapi installed. We then extend the excellent xbbg package. One complication is the installation of blpapi which is a bit of a pain in the backside.

According to the Bloomberg website one can install using pip with:

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

For Poetry there are 2 steps required: Setting up Bloomberg as a source & then installing; This is FYI because the pyproject.toml file should take care of this.

poetry source add --priority bloomberg https://bcms.bloomberg.com/pip/simple
poetry add --source bloomberg blpapi

Publishing to PyPi

I'm no pro at deploying packages to PyPi, so have been following
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...>

# The build bit
