LibreOffice Calc function

[tlevine]

As a LibreOffice Calc user, I want a Calc function that lets me query treasury.io so I can load treasury data into Calc. The call might look like this.

=TREASURYIO('SELECT * FROM t1')

and it would populate as many cells as the table has.

You can write Calc functions in Python, so this will be pleasant.

@EricSchles might do this in Python. I'm gonna try it in Basic now. This page was helpful.

Thanks Tom! I'll be working on this today in the afternoon. Working on
another project this morning.

Awesome!

And do Python. Parsing JSON in OpenOffice Basic looks painful, and making web requests looks almost as bad. I was mainly doing it so I could port it to Excel for issue #61 .

For those of us who are Microsoft Office buffs, what is LibreOffice Calc?
Is it like an add-in module that helps you call the data directly in a
spreadsheet?

It's an open source version of microsoft excel. Its basically the same
thing. Does all the same stuff.
