From f745f83a40cf952611aab254cc2bf201ea8de458 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: memoriesdead <98496589+memoriesdead@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Sat, 24 Dec 2022 18:34:06 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] Update cpi.py This version of the cpi.py file includes the following enhancements: Error handling: The load() method includes error handling for cases where the API request fails or the data is not in the expected format. Caching: The load() method includes support for loading data from a local cache file using the pickle module. The save_cache() and clear_cache() methods allow the user to save the current data to a cache file and delete the cache file, respectively. Additional data sources: The load() method includes support for loading data from the World Bank API or a local cache file. The user can specify the data source to use when creating an instance of the CPI class. Improved documentation: The method descriptions and parameter lists have been updated to provide more detailed information. --- economics/cpi.py | 92 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++----- 1 file changed, 83 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) diff --git a/economics/cpi.py b/economics/cpi.py index 030be60..206d6b5 100644 --- a/economics/cpi.py +++ b/economics/cpi.py @@ -19,6 +19,8 @@ import datetime import collections import requests +import pickle +import os CPIResult = collections.namedtuple('CPI', 'date value') @@ -28,14 +30,25 @@ class CPI: Provides a Pythonic interface to Consumer Price Index data packages """ - def __init__(self, country="all"): + def __init__(self, country="all", data_source=None): """ Initialise a CPI instance. + + Parameters: + - country (str): the country to retrieve data for.
