How to become a posting consumer ? #4

Closed CoreCPU closed 9 years ago

CoreCPU commented 10 years ago

While pyRFA allowes one to contribute, it would seem one can only do this by becoming a provider. I have not found a way to post/publish as a consumer. Does pyRFA allow this ?

Currently it does not support Posting as a consumer.

However, PyRFA supports so-called "Non-interactive Publishing" (full-cached or source-driven according to Reuters' jargons) meaning PyRFA separately acts as a client and connects to ADH then publish data. This NIP will need TREP admin to configure ADH configuration to include such service.

Hi Wiwat,

Thank you for your reply.

<<This NIP will need TREP admin to configure ADH configuration to include such service.

I understand what your saying, but unless i'm mistaking this bars consumers from publishing to this service. I've tried the provider examples and while they all work they require configuration of a specific service and that means that only my pyRFA app can send data to this service. We have about 12 services to which folk are contributing using Eikon/Excel and i want to replace some of these xls files with a pyRFA application. However, i have not found a way of doing this so that both the pyrfa app and consumers can contribute to the same source. (the only way i found is by having the possibility of becoming a posting consumer which i can't do with pyRFA currently.)

Bummer !

You can configure your service to be an "aggregated service" so multiple sources can publish to this service including PyRFA as well as posting from downstream.

Not sure if this works for you.

Good news. The next release of PyRFA will have OMMPost capability.

Just released PyRFA 8.0.0.1and it supports OMM posting. Cheers.
