Ruby YahooFinance Module

  • Posted by admin on April 6th, 2008 filed in ruby

If you've seen my previous tutorial on using scRubyt to scour Yahoo Finance you may be interested in this. YahooFinance is a Ruby module built to much, much more. It can get varying level of Finance data for a given company.

It happens to be the cornerstone of Grism - a desktop stock tracking system.

I'm surpised this hasn't been made available as a gem It has been made available as a gem but you can also get it at the website here.

    Doug,

    It is available as a gem - I am using it in one of my projects.
    You can install it with gem install yahoofinance (not gem install yahoo-finance, which is a different gem :-)

    I have been using yahoo data for a stock simulation website for a few months, I found it somewhat unreliable in some cases… (ok, for 95% it has been fine)
