:bar_chart: Financial markets data library implemented in go.

finance-go

Summary

This go package aims to provide a go application with access to current and historical financial markets data in streamlined, well-formatted structures.

Check out the qtrn cli application, which is intended as a living example of this package. It prints quotes/options info in your favorite command-line in a few keystrokes!

Documentation

A neatly formatted detailed list of implementation instructions and examples will be available on the piquette website.

For now, for details on all the functionality in this library, see the GoDoc documentation.

Installation

It is best to use a dependency management tool, but if you want to retrieve it manually, use -

go get github.com/piquette/finance-go

Usage example

Library usage is meant to be very specific about the user's intentions.

Quote

q, err := quote.Get("AAPL")
if err != nil {
  // Uh-oh.  
  panic(err)
}

// Success!
fmt.Println(q)

Equity quote (more fields)

q, err := equity.Get("AAPL")
if err != nil {
  // Uh-oh.  
  panic(err)
}

// Success!
fmt.Println(q)

Historical quotes (OHLCV)

params := &chart.Params{
  Symbol:   "TWTR",
  Interval: datetime.OneHour,
}
iter := chart.Get(params)

for iter.Next() {
  fmt.Println(iter.Bar())
}
if err := iter.Err(); err != nil {
  fmt.Println(err)
}

Development

Pull requests from the community are welcome. If you submit one, please keep the following guidelines in mind:

1. All types, structs and funcs should be documented.
2. Ensure that make test succeeds.

Test

The test suite needs testify's require package to run:

github.com/stretchr/testify/require

It also depends on a running instance of a test server finance-mock, so make sure to fetch that project and run the application from another terminal session (finance-mock's README contains more information).

Docker

  docker run -p 12111:12111 piquette/finance-mock:latest

Brew

brew tap piquette/finance-mock
brew install finance-mock
finance-mock

Go

go get -u github.com/piquette/finance-mock
finance-mock

Run all tests:

go test ./...

Run tests for one package:

go test ./equity

Run a single test:

go test ./equity -run TestGet

For any requests, bug or comments, please open an issue or submit a pull request. Also please email or tweet me as needed.

Notes

• Yahoo changes their finance APIs without warning, which is their right to do so. However, its annoying and leads to some instability in this project..
• Big shoutout to Stripe and the team working on the stripe-go project, I took a lot of library design / implementation hints from them.
