Hi,
my pr just got merged into beanprice. So you can use this
pip install git+https://github.com/beancount/beanprice.git
and then specify the commodity like this
2000-01-01 commodity USD
price: "CHF:ratesapi/USD-CHF"
if you want to use EUR as base (instead of CHF) then it would be
2000-01-01 commodity USD
price: "EUR:ratesapi/USD-EUR"
similar for other base currencies.
It's using https://ratesapi.io/documentation/ for the lookup. Data is
coming from
https://www.ecb.europa.eu/stats/policy_and_exchange_rates/euro_reference_exchange_rates/html/index.en.html
this should give you an idea which currency pairs you can use.
Regards,
Patrick

Currently exchangeratesapi. Am not really picky, just trying to
automate the process rather than manually specifying flunctuations in
my home currency.

Yes, what I meant which price source (e.g. exchangeratesapi,
alphabantage, ...) do you want to use?

Well I don't really suggest you accommodate my own currency
since I may possibly be the only beancount user there. Really
should be something we specify ourselves somewhere (no idea
how that can be achieved).

Hi,
Thanks for getting back on this. There is the link to pypi
at the very top with the image but it makes sense to
describe this as well.
Sorry about the hardcoding to CHF, that's what I need and
I haven't made this flexible everywhere. I noticed this
when I started creating a pr for beanprice. I was thinking
to move my price fetchers there and planning to fix it as
part of the move. But I haven't heard back anything on my
pr for almost a month, so I should probably enhance them
in my repo. Which ones are you most interested?
Regards,
Patrick

Well it didn't show up on pypi with a search for
'beancounttools', and the github page doesn't list
this pypi package so I only found out about it from
your email (thanks!)
But... why is everything hardcoded to be CHF? Was so
confused with the initial results I was getting.

Hi,
what issues did you encounter when installing
beancounttools? Should be a simple
pip install tariochbctools
As for the config, probably it's tied to the way
you setup your commodities. The way I have mine
configured are like this
2019-01-01 commodity EUR
price:
"CHF:tariochbctools.plugins.prices.exchangeratesapi/EUR"
So the symbol I use in beancount is EUR, but the
symbol for the price lookup might be something else
Regards,
Patrick

I've tried out
https://github.com/xuhcc/beancount-exchangerates
<https://github.com/xuhcc/beancount-exchangerates>
so far, and can't figure out installation for
https://github.com/tarioch/beancounttools
<https://github.com/tarioch/beancounttools>
Exchangerates gives me output looking like this:-
2021-04-27 price USD:CUR X.XXXX CUR
instead of (what I think is supposed to be) the
correct:-
2021-04-27 price USD X.XXXX CUR
I don't recognise the above syntax, should I be
doing a simple sed to get it into the format I'm
already using (the 2nd one)? What does it even
mean? Would using beancounttools be 'better'?
