MoC prices source

This is the python package used in Money on Chain projects where it is required to get the coinpair values directly from the sources. This package includes a CLI tool that allows you to query the coinpair values in the same way that Money on Chain projects do.

How to use it in your project

A simple example, do some imports first

user@host:~$ python3
Python 3.8.5 (default, Jul 28 2020, 12:59:40) 
[GCC 9.3.0] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from moc_prices_source import get_price, BTC_USD
>>>

Get de BTC/USD coin pair

>>> get_price(BTC_USD)
Decimal('29395.82')
>>> 

And that's it!
