This is simple Django project with one app - Rates that depends on postgreSQL database. Exchangerate is updating it's rates everyday at 1am using celery.

Current rates can be fetched by one of two urls:

• localhost:8000 to dispatch rates for all currencies
• localhost:8000/<currency_code> for specific currency.

API is created with django-rest-framework and I haven't introduced nothing new so there are no tests for that. API is developed only to fetch data so neither create nor delete is implemented.
