New dataSpec: Custom Commodity Price (aggricultural commodities) #119

Closed 0xSpuddy closed 1 year ago

0xSpuddy commented 1 year ago

We received a new dataRequest for the spot prices of agricultural commodities: wheat, soybeans, rice, and corn. This issue is intended to start a conversation about how this data should be handled in the Tellor system. We are thinking that we probably need a new dataSpec for these prices that is more descriptive than simple spotPrice.

From the user: "The initial idea is to use data from https://commodities-api.com :

GET Request: https://www.commodities-api.com/api/latest?access_key=$hozfjpuk6ahwwfxdg4b60vs5c9bfih05mfpouu4ne6ywagsq986v45e88xk3&base=USD&symbols=RICE%2CWHEAT%2CSOYBEAN%2CCORN%2C

The data that is needed: CORN: per bushel, RICE: per CWT, SOYBEAN: per bushel, WHEAT: per metric ton"

Our contact for this project / data is private Telegram group. If anyone would like to be added to the group let me know. Thanks for reading!

Closing this because the dataSpec has been merged in here: https://github.com/tellor-io/dataSpecs/commit/d165cf6af3781a6eb2df8cca2cdf4e06cad33b3b

CustomPrice queries can now be input manually in telliot: https://github.com/tellor-io/telliot-feeds/pull/689
