# API Reference
This section contains the complete API documentation for mt5cli.
## Modules
The mt5cli package consists of the following modules:
### [CLI](cli.md)
Command-line interface module providing typer-based commands for exporting MetaTrader 5 data to CSV, JSON, Parquet, and SQLite3 formats.
## Architecture Overview
The package follows a simple architecture built on top of pdmt5:
1. **CLI Layer** (`cli.py`): Typer application with subcommands for each data type, custom Click parameter types for datetime/timeframe/tick flags parsing, and format detection/export utilities.
2. **Data Layer** (via `pdmt5`): Uses `Mt5DataClient` and `Mt5Config` from the pdmt5 package for all MetaTrader 5 data access.
## Usage Guidelines
All modules follow these conventions:
- **Type Safety**: All functions include comprehensive type hints
- **Error Handling**: User-friendly error messages via typer
- **Documentation**: Google-style docstrings with examples
- **Validation**: Custom Click parameter types for input validation
## Quick Start
```bash
# Export account information to CSV
mt5cli -o account.csv account-info
# Export EURUSD H1 rates to Parquet
mt5cli -o rates.parquet rates-from --symbol EURUSD --timeframe H1 \
--date-from 2024-01-01 --count 1000
# Export ticks to JSON
mt5cli -o ticks.json ticks-from --symbol EURUSD \
--date-from 2024-01-01 --count 500 --flags ALL
# Export to SQLite3 with custom table name
mt5cli -o data.db --table symbols symbols --group "*USD*"
```
## Python API
```python
from mt5cli import detect_format, export_dataframe
import pandas as pd
# Detect output format from file extension
fmt = detect_format(Path("output.parquet")) # Returns "parquet"
# Export a DataFrame
df = pd.DataFrame({"symbol": ["EURUSD"], "bid": [1.1234]})
export_dataframe(df, Path("output.csv"), "csv")
```
## Examples
See individual module pages for detailed usage examples and code samples.
