Cryptocurrency Exporter

Simple cryptocurrency exporter written in Python to expose metrics. Cryptocurrencies could be converted to specified currency as USD, EUR, CZK, etc. I recommend set a timer to 5 seconds or higher because servers of coinmarketcap.com would be overloaded. Server running on port 9510.

You can convert currencies to: AUD, BRL, CAD, CHF, CLP, CNY, CZK, DKK, EUR, GBP, HKD, HUF, IDR, ILS, INR, JPY, KRW, MXN, MYR, NOK, NZD, PHP, PKR, PLN, RUB, SEK, SGD, THB, TRY, TWD, ZAR

Usage

usage: crypto.py [-h] [-d] [-c CURRENCY] [-t TIMER]
