Ruby's Yahoo Finance Wrapper

A dead simple wrapper for yahoo finance quotes end-point.

Usage:

Getting latest quotes for a set of symbols

Pass an array of valid symbols (stock names, indexes, exchange rates) and a list of fields you want:

data = YahooFinance.quotes(["BVSP", "NATU3.SA", "USDJPY=X"], [:ask, :bid, :last_trade_date])

Data is now an array of results. You now have accessor methods to retrieve the data, with the return results being strings:

puts data[0].symbol + " value is: " + data[0].ask 

Passing raw: false will return numerical values

data = YahooFinance.quotes(["BVSP", "NATU3.SA", "USDJPY=X"], [:ask, :bid, :last_trade_date], { raw: false } )
data[0].ask # This is now a float

The full list of fields follows:

     :ask
     :average_daily_volume
     :ask_size
     :bid
     :ask_real_time

Getting historical quotes

Here you can specify a date range and a symbol, and retrieve historical data for it. The last parameter (options) can include, besides the "raw" option, a "period" option. The period can be specified as :daily, :monthly, :weekly or :dividends_only

data = YahooFinance.historical_quotes("BVSP", Time::now-(24*60*60*10), Time::now) # 10 days worth of data

or

data = YahooFinance.historical_quotes("BVSP", Time::now-(24*60*60*10), Time::now, { raw: false, period: :monthly })

Enjoy! :-)
