#xch - smol currency eXCHange tool

xch is a smol CLI currency exchange program to facilitate quickly and efficiently getting the latest exchange rate data from the Swedish Nasdaq exchange through Sveriges Riksbank's (Sweden's Central Bank) public REST API. The program only retrieves the currencies that are requested, while also caching any data retrieved from the API to both have a quicker response time and prevent unnecessary network traffic.

#TODO

• [ ] - sensible argument parsing
  • [ ] - look into not using clap because it is too big
• [ ] - caching data to prevent hammering the REST API
  • [x] - currency data
  • [ ] - exchange rate(s)
• [ ] - get the latest exchange rate
  • [x] - for SEK to FOO
  • [ ] - for FOO to BAR (needs the exchange rate API endpoint instead)
• [ ] - querying historical data
• [ ] - displaying all available currencies in a table format
  • [ ] - held up by the REST API not yet supporting the request of several exchange rates at the same time
