Rapi: Interface for Multiple Data Providers 'EDDS' and 'FRED'
Sermet Pekin · 2024
Interface for multiple data sources, such as the 'EDDS' API of the Central Bank of the Republic of Türkiye and the 'FRED' API of the Federal Reserve Bank. Both data providers require API keys for access, which users can easily obtain by creating accounts on their respective websites. The package provides caching ability with the selection of periods to increase the speed and efficiency of requests. It combines datasets requested from different sources, helping users when the data has common frequencies. While combining data frames whenever possible, it also keeps all requested data available as separate data frames to increase efficiency.
