rs-tickers

Gets stock quotes for provided tickers

Use case(s)

1. As an investor I want to provide recent prices to my investment tracking spreadsheet

Usage

$ tickers --help

To see logs use RUST_LOG env variable. Possible values are defined in https://docs.rs/log/latest/log/enum.Level.html

Fetching stock quotes from CLI

You can pass path to a file ...

$ RUST_LOG=info rs-tickers example/watchlist.txt

... or pipe data from another process

$ cat example/watchlist.json | jq -c '.[]' | rs-tickers

It will create ticker.txt files in /tmp/watchlist_quotes (unless other dir is given) that later can be read by the spreadsheet.

UC1: Integration with your favorite spreadsheet program

After fetching stock quotes their values can be loaded from file into a spreadsheet cell like this:

='file:///tmp/watchlist_quotes/ticker.txt'#$ticker.A1

HOWTO build

$ cargo build --release && cargo install --path crates/cli/

Your binary is ~/.cargo/bin/tickers.
