CoinMena

Get the latest crypto currency information from AlphaVantage API.

Getting Started

Kindly create virtual environment if you don't want to mess up libraries =)

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.

Prerequisites

• Python 3.9
• Django 3.2.1
• Django Rest Framework 3.12.4
• AlphaVantage 2.3.1
• Docker

Installing

Install [docker.com] (https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-mac/install/) and run docker process in background.

First clone the repo into your local directory.

git clone https://github.com/MirzaBaig715/CoinMena.git

Setup

Please create API key in AlphVantage which is needed to run this project. Claim you key here.

Create .env text file in project directory and add these following data

DEBUG=1
SECRET_KEY=(*^@#JBUI&AT^CBMN!@KLHLA&^#(!)(@#
DJANGO_ALLOWED_HOSTS=localhost 127.0.0.1 [::1]
ALPHA_API_KEY=Your claimed key from AlphaVantage

Build and Run docker

docker-compose build
docker-compose up -d

Check the Logs

docker-compose logs -f

There are two method GET and POST. GET will retreive the latest price from database. POST will forcefully call the AlphaVantage API to get the latest price.

Thats it! Now you can go to localhost:8000/api/v1/qoutes/.
