Github - ibaralf YahooFinance
After installing the plugin, it gives the user several methods to retrieve company stock statistics as well as stock historical data.
In a service or controller:
You can call the methods available in the YahooFinanceYQLService.
- yahooFinanceYQLService.quote(String symbols)
- yahooFinanceYQLService.quote(String symbols, String statistics)
- yahooFinanceYQLService.getHistoricalQuotes(String symbol, int numberOfDays)
- yahooFinanceYQLService.getHistoricalQuotes(String symbol, String startDate, String endDate)
- yahooFinanceYQLService.getHistoricalQuotes(String symbol, Date startDate, Date endDate)
- yahooFinanceYQLService.availableStats - list of all statistics that can be retrieved.
NOTE: One thing peculiar with Yahoo web-services (especially their finance service), there seems to be 2 different web-services running, first - the Yahoo Query Language YQL and the other web-service that returns CSVs as explained here in gummy-stuff website. The plugin implements both, but ended up using the CSV service since it seems to be more reliable.
