kiarina-currency 1.28.0

Currency utilities for the kiarina namespace

kiarina-currency

Currency utilities for the kiarina namespace with exchange rate support.

Purpose

Provides currency code types and exchange rate retrieval with pluggable rate providers.

Installation

pip install kiarina-currency

Quick Start

Basic Usage

from kiarina.currency import get_exchange_rate

# Get exchange rate (uses static provider by default)
rate = await get_exchange_rate("USD", "JPY")
print(f"1 USD = {rate} JPY")

# With default value for unsupported currencies
rate = await get_exchange_rate("USD", "XXX", default=1.0)

Using Different Rate Providers

from kiarina.currency import get_exchange_rate

# Use Frankfurter API for real-time rates
rate = await get_exchange_rate(
    "USD", "EUR",
    rate_options={"rate_provider": "frankfurter"}
)

Custom Rate Provider

from kiarina.currency import BaseRateProvider, get_exchange_rate

class MyRateProvider(BaseRateProvider):
    async def get_rate(
        self,
        from_currency: str,
        to_currency: str,
        *,
        default: float | None = None,
    ) -> float:
        # Your custom implementation
        return 1.5

# Use custom provider
rate = await get_exchange_rate(
    "USD", "EUR",
    rate_options={"rate_provider": MyRateProvider()}
)

API Reference

get_exchange_rate()

Get exchange rate between two currencies.

async def get_exchange_rate(
    from_currency: CurrencyCode,
    to_currency: CurrencyCode,
    *,
    default: float | None = None,
    rate_options: RateOptions | None = None,
) -> float

Parameters:

• from_currency: Source currency code (ISO 4217)
• to_currency: Target currency code (ISO 4217)
• default: Default value if rate not found (raises ExchangeRateNotFoundError if None)
• rate_options: Options for rate provider selection

Returns: Exchange rate as float

Raises: ExchangeRateNotFoundError if rate not found and no default provided

Rate Providers

Built-in Providers

• static (default): Configuration-based static rates

  • Supports direct rates, inverted rates, and indirect rates via base currency
  • Default rates from USD to 11 major currencies (JPY, EUR, GBP, CNY, KRW, AUD, CAD, CHF, HKD, SGD, INR)

• frankfurter: Real-time rates from Frankfurter API

  • Free, open-source API for currency exchange rates
  • Updated daily from European Central Bank
  • Default value fallback for unsupported currencies or network errors

Creating Custom Providers

Implement the BaseRateProvider abstract class:

from kiarina.currency import BaseRateProvider

class MyRateProvider(BaseRateProvider):
    async def get_rate(
        self,
        from_currency: str,
        to_currency: str,
        *,
        default: float | None = None,
    ) -> float:
        # Your implementation
        pass

Configuration

Static Rate Provider

Configure static exchange rates:

kiarina.currency.rate_provider_impl.static:
  base_currency: "USD"
  rates:
    USD:
      JPY: 158.27
      EUR: 0.86
      GBP: 0.75
    EUR:
      GBP: 0.86

Rate Resolution:

1. Direct rate: rates[from_currency][to_currency]
2. Inverted rate: 1.0 / rates[to_currency][from_currency]
3. Indirect rate via base currency: from → base → to

Frankfurter Rate Provider

Configure Frankfurter API settings:

kiarina.currency.rate_provider_impl.frankfurter:
  base_url: "https://api.frankfurter.app"
  timeout: 10.0

Rate Provider Selection

Set default rate provider:

kiarina.currency.rate_provider:
  default: "static"  # or "frankfurter"
  providers:
    static: "kiarina.currency.rate_provider_impl.static:StaticRateProvider"
    frankfurter: "kiarina.currency.rate_provider_impl.frankfurter:FrankfurterRateProvider"
    custom: "myapp.providers:CustomRateProvider"

Environment Variables:

• KIARINA_CURRENCY_RATE_PROVIDER_DEFAULT: Default provider name
• KIARINA_CURRENCY_RATE_PROVIDER_IMPL_STATIC_BASE_CURRENCY: Base currency for static provider
• KIARINA_CURRENCY_RATE_PROVIDER_IMPL_FRANKFURTER_BASE_URL: Frankfurter API base URL
• KIARINA_CURRENCY_RATE_PROVIDER_IMPL_FRANKFURTER_TIMEOUT: Request timeout in seconds

# Run tests
mise run package:test kiarina-currency

# Enable Frankfurter API tests (requires internet connection)
export KIARINA_CURRENCY_RATE_PROVIDER_IMPL_FRANKFURTER_TEST_ENABLED=1
mise run package:test kiarina-currency
