openbb-oecd
OECD extension for OpenBB
What it is and what it does
openbb-oecd is an extension that plugs OECD statistical data into the OpenBB Platform, a modular framework for financial and economic data access. It acts as a data provider adapter, allowing you to query OECD datasets through OpenBB's unified interface rather than directly from OECD's API. The package depends on openbb-core and defusedxml, keeping its own footprint minimal.
You install it alongside OpenBB and use it to supplement other data sources within the platform. It's designed for developers and analysts who already work within the OpenBB ecosystem and need access to OECD's economic and statistical data. The extension is actively maintained and supports Python 3.10 through 3.14.
Use it for:
- Fetch OECD economic indicators and statistics for financial analysis or research workflows.
- Build dashboards or reports that combine OECD data with other OpenBB data providers.
- Automate retrieval of OECD datasets in quantitative or macroeconomic modeling pipelines.
- Integrate OECD statistics into OpenBB-based trading or investment decision systems.
Worth the install?
AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Integrates OECD statistical data into the OpenBB Platform, enabling programmatic access to OECD datasets through the OpenBB ecosystem.
Yes, if you are already using OpenBB and need OECD data. The low install friction, active maintenance, and clean dependency chain make it a straightforward addition to an OpenBB setup. However, the AGPL-3.0-only license is a hard constraint for proprietary use—verify your project's licensing requirements before committing. No known security vulnerabilities.
Install
openbb-oecd on PyPI
pip
pip install openbb-oecduv
uv add openbb-oecdpoetry
poetry add openbb-oecdInstalling openbb-oecd
Before you install
Low install friction with a pure Python wheel. Actively maintained as of 80 days ago. Requires openbb-core as a runtime dependency, so installation assumes you already have or are willing to adopt the OpenBB Platform.
License in practice
Licensed under AGPL-3.0-only, which requires derivative works and modifications to be open-sourced under the same license. This is a strong copyleft constraint; using this extension in a proprietary product requires careful legal review.
Quickstart
pip install openbb-oecd
from openbb_core.app import OpenBBApp
app = OpenBBApp()
# Access OECD data through the OpenBB platform
Requires openbb-core to be installed and configured; Python 3.10 or later.
