Description

A library to use the Bloomberg Java API from jruby

Features

So far the following requests can be made:

• HistoricalDataRequest
• ReferenceDataRequest

We'll be working on adding all the requests supported by the Java API, including "subscriptions".

Feel free to pitch in :)

Examples

TODO: add examples. For now look at the specs for a couple of examples

Requirements

• The Bloomberg Java API jar

Install

$ gem install bberg

The gem comes with a drb server to make it simpler to use the API from several processes on the same machine (multiple machines not allowed by the Java API copyright, same applies here):

$ bberg_drb_server

To create a stand alone executable do the following (after checking out the git repo):

$ bundle install
$ bundle install --deployment --without development
$ rake bberg:create_exe

This creates a folder with a .exe in ../bberg-package/windows/
