Anafora ...

A Clojure library designed to make reference requests from local Bloomberg stations. Uses the Bloomberg java api version 3.7.1

Usage

You will need to have the Bloomberg java libraries installed into the repo directory under your current project, i.e. projectdir/repo/bloomberglp/blpapi/3.7.1 or in your local maven repository.

This in your dependencies:

[anafora "0.1.0-SNAPSHOT"]

Example

(ns test
    (:require [anafora.core :refer :all])
    (:import (com.bloomberglp.blpapi SessionOptions)))

(def securities ["31417CTR6 Mtge"])
(def fields ["CPN" "MTG_FACTOR"])

; If you need to change to something other than localhost and default port
; rebind the *sesssion-options* var as in the function below. Otherwise, leave
; out the binding
(defn grab-data []
      (binding [*session-options* (new SessionOptions)]
                (.setServerHost *session-options* "localhost")
                (.setServerPort *session-options* 8194)
                (defreferencerequest my-new-request securities fields)
                (submit-request my-new-request)))
;get the data
[{:cpn "..." :mtg_factor "...."}]
