Daichi Narushima b8ce76c9d6 Add CLI commands for remaining pdmt5.dataframe methods (#9)
* Add CLI commands for remaining pdmt5.dataframe methods

Add the following subcommands so the CLI fully covers pdmt5.dataframe's
public *_as_df methods:

- version
- last-error
- symbol-info-tick
- market-book
- order-check (request via inline JSON or @path/to/file.json)
- order-send  (request via inline JSON or @path/to/file.json)

Also export a new parse_request helper for parsing JSON order requests,
add tests for every new command, and update the README and docs command
tables.

mt5cli

Command-line tool for MetaTrader 5 data export.

Overview

mt5cli is a CLI application that exports MetaTrader 5 trading data to multiple file formats. It is built on top of pdmt5, a pandas-based data handler for MetaTrader 5.

Features

  • Multi-format export: CSV, JSON, Parquet, and SQLite3 output formats
  • Auto-detection: Format detection from file extensions
  • Comprehensive data access: Rates, ticks, account info, symbols, orders, positions, and trading history
  • Flexible timeframes: Named timeframes (M1, H1, D1, etc.) and numeric values
  • Connection management: Optional credentials, server, and timeout configuration

Installation

pip install mt5cli
