Stock Quote CLI

Build Status

Stock Quote CLI is a Ruby gem that provides a command-line interface for fetching stock information from Yahoo!. It relies on the stock_quote gem for fetching real-time and historical data.

Demo

Update: Due to Google's sunsetting of iGoogle (and the associated endpoint from which the stock_quote gem once fetched its data), the stock_quote gem has moved to using the Yahoo! Finance API. This CLI gem has been updated to accommodate the awesomely quick changes.

Installation

With Ruby installed, run the following:

gem install stock_quote_cli

Usage

You can use Stock Quote CLI to fetch real-time attributes of multiple stocks. Use the stock command in tandem with any of the available subcommands and stock symbols to fetch the relevant attribute(s).

Last Price

Get the latest price for the specified stock(s).

stock last goog yhoo aapl

Open Price

Get the opening price for the specified stock(s) on the current day (or last trading day).

stock open znga

Previous Closing Price

Get the closing price for the specified stock(s) on the previous trading day.

stock yclose amzn nflx

High Price

Get the high price for the specified stock(s) on the current day (or last trading day).

stock high lnkd

Low Price

Get the low price for the specified stock(s) on the current day (or last trading day).

stock low msft dell

Historical Data

Get historical data for a single stock. The default range is 14 days. The default value is the closing price. These can be specified using the range (aliased to -r) and value (aliased to -v) options, respectively.

stock history fb

The range (-r) option takes an integer. Use this to specify the number of trading days for which you'd like data.

stock history -r 15 fb

The value (-v) option takes a string. Use this to specify the price value that you'd like to see in the output. You can choose from the following:

  • open (opening price)
  • close (closing price)
  • high (high price)
  • low (low price)
  • volume (share volume)

Below, we fetch the high price for the Facebook stock for the past 15 days.

stock history -r 15 -v high fb
