Usage

I tried my best to display the price data in a variety of ways that would be useful in a variety of circumstances.

Command Line

Main mode

This will be the default mode if you run the program without any arguments. It will show the current prices for gold, coins, and the IRR exchange rate in separate tables.

Live

In live mode, the program tries to update the prices in a specified interval. This is useful if you want to keep an eye on the prices.

The website updates the prices every 30 seconds and the default value is 30 seconds as well. You can change this value by using the -i or --interval argument.

$ bonbast -i 60
# Or
$ python -m bonbast -i 60

Simple

In this mode, the program will show the prices as text in the terminal.

$ bonbast live simple --show-only usd,eur,gbp,cad -i 300
# Or
$ python -m bonbast live simple --show-only usd,eur,gbp,cad -i 300

Currency

In this mode, the program will show the prices in a table. It can only show one currency at a time.

$ bonbast live currency --show-only usd,eur,gbp,cad -i 300
# Or
$ python -m bonbast live currency --show-only usd,eur,gbp,cad -i 300

History

This is useful if you want to see the prices for a specific date. You can use the -d or --date argument to specify the date. The date must be in the format YYYY-MM-DD or YYYY/MM/DD. Also, the date needs to be Gregorian.

The date is valid from 2012-10-09 to one day before the current date.

$ bonbast history --date 2020/10/10
# Or
$ python -m bonbast history --date 2020/10/10

Convert

This is useful if you want to convert a value from one currency to Rial or from Rial to another currency. If you want to convert from a currency to Rial, you need to use -s or --source argument to specify the currency you want to convert from.

$ bonbast convert -s EUR 12.5
# Or
$ python -m bonbast convert -s EUR 12.5

If you want to convert from Rial to another currency, you need to use the -d or --destination argument to specify the currency you want to convert to.

$ bonbast convert -d USD 1837850
# Or
$ python -m bonbast convert -d USD 1837850

You can also use --only-buy or --only-sell to specify which price you want to use.

$ bonbast convert -d USD 1837850 --only-buy
$ bonbast convert -d USD 1837850 --only-sell
# Or
$ python -m bonbast convert -d USD 1837850 --only-buy
$ python -m bonbast convert -d USD 1837850 --only-sell

Json Output

It can be useful if you want to use the result of the program in another program. You can also pipe the output in terminal to another program like JQ.

$ bonbast export
# Or
$ python -m bonbast export

Pretty Print Json

There is also a way to pretty print the json output. You can use the --pretty argument to do that. It helps to see the output in a more readable way.

$ bonbast export --pretty
# Or
$ python -m bonbast export --pretty

Usage in other programs

There are few ways to use the program in other programs. The best way is to use the json output.

Mac Shortcuts

You can use the json output or the convert function to create a shortcut in Mac. You can use the shortcut to show the currency price as a notification.

Raycast

Raycast is a tool for searching your Mac, launching applications, and controlling your computer, and it is far superior to Spotlight. You can use the json output to create a script command in Raycast. In this way, you can easily access the prices in Raycast.

I included an example script command in the raycast folder. You can use it to create your own script.

Setup for Raycast

You can use this setup-raycast.sh script to setup the script command in Raycast. Then Follow the instructions in below image or read Raycast docs.

$ chmod +x setup-raycast.sh

$ ./setup-raycast.sh standalone
