Introduction

Pricing classes and tools with CLDR-backed locale-aware formatting and currency exchange. Easy to extend/customize since it’s built on ZCA.

Define your custom currencies and exchange’s in your project’s ZCML and you’re golden.

Installation

pip3 install pricing

Usage

Basic

>>> from pricing import Price
... Price('2.22', 'USD')
EUR 2.22

>>> Price('2.34223434', 'BTC')
BTC 2.34223434

>>> m = Price(2, 'USD')
... m.amount
Decimal('2')
... m.currency
'USD'

>>> m = Price('2.22', 'EUR')
... m / 2
EUR 1.11
>>> m + Price('7.77', 'EUR')
EUR 9.99

Formatting

>>> m = Price('1234.567', 'EUR')
... str(m)
'EUR 1,234.57'

>>> m.format()
'€1,234.57'

Currency Exchange

Currency exchange works by “installing” a backend class that implements the IExchangeBackend interface.

XPrice

You can use money.XPrice (a subclass of Price), for automatic currency conversion while adding, subtracting, and dividing money objects (+, +=, -, -=, /, //). This is useful when aggregating lots of money objects with heterogeneous currencies. The currency of the leftmost object has priority.

from pricing import XPrice

# Register backend and rates as above...

a = XPrice(1, 'AAA')
b = XPrice(1, 'BBB')

assert sum([a, b]) == XPrice('1.25', 'AAA')

Extending and customization

You can use ZCML to configure custom currencyFormats and exchanges, create a new file called currency.zcml, and follow the example below to configure.

<configure
    xmlns:zope="http://namespaces.zope.org/zope"
    xmlns="http://namespaces.zope.org/currency">

    <zope:include package="pricing" file="currency-meta.zcml" />

    <currency default="USD">
        <currencyFormat
            name="bitcoin"
            code="BTC"
            symbol="₿"
            format="¤#,##0.########"
            currency_digits="false"
            decimal_quantization="true" />
        <currencyFormat
            name="litecoin"
            code="LTC"
            symbol="Ł"
            format="¤#,##0.########"
            currency_digits="false"
            decimal_quantization="true" />
        <currencyFormat
            name="ether"
            code="ETH"
            symbol="Ξ"
            format="¤#,##0.##################"
            currency_digits="false"
            decimal_quantization="true" />

        <exchange
            component="pricing.exchange.Exchange"
            backend="pricing.exchange.CoinBaseBackend"
            base="USD" />
    </currency>

</configure>

Then include currency.zcml in your configure.zcml file:

<include file="currency.zcml" />

Fields

Included are custom fields for zope.schema and attrs based classes. Checkout money.fields.

Exceptions

PriceException(Exception)

Base class for all exceptions.

CurrencyMismatch(PriceException, ValueError)

Thrown when mixing different currencies, e.g. Price(2, 'EUR') + Price(2, 'USD'). Price objects must be converted first to the same currency, or XPrice could be used for automatic conversion.

InvalidOperandType(PriceException, TypeError)

Thrown when attempting invalid operations, e.g. multiplication between money objects.

ExchangeError(PriceException)

Base class for exchange exceptions.

ExchangeBackendNotInstalled(ExchangeError)

Thrown if a conversion is attempted, but there is no backend available.

ExchangeRateNotFound(ExchangeError)

The installed backend failed to provide a suitable exchange rate between the origin and target currencies.
