dsh-eco-indicator

Pulling GDP and inflation figures for a handful of countries usually means navigating the World Bank website, memorizing indicator codes, fiddling with year filters, and copy-pasting numbers into a spreadsheet. dsh-eco-indicator collapses that workflow into a single conversational question. It taps the World Bank open data API directly, so there is no API key to request, no account to create, and no setup beyond installing the plugin.

Two tools do the heavy lifting. wb_indicator fetches any World Bank indicator for a given country and year range, returning one row per year with missing years omitted automatically. wb_countries resolves a name fragment or ISO3 code into the canonical country code, making it easy to target the right economy before querying. Common indicators such as GDP, GDP per capita, CPI inflation, trade-to-GDP, total population, and unemployment rate are ready out of the box, and the plugin also supports regional aggregates like World, High-income, and Low-income.

It is built for researchers, policy analysts, students, and developers who need quick access to macroeconomic data without bouncing between a browser and a spreadsheet. Ask in plain language, the model calls the tools, and you get year-by-year figures in the same thread. Looking up an indicator becomes a conversation, not a process.
