stock-quotes

API to get stock prices from the Yahoo Finance API. This is a TypeScript-ported version of yahoo_stock_prices.

Installation

import * as yahooStockPrices from "https://deno.land/x/stock_quotes/yahoo-stock-prices.ts";

Usage

getCurrentData

Returns a promise which resolves with the current price of a stock, along with the currency of that stock.

Example

const data = await yahooStockPrices.getCurrentData("AAPL");
console.log(data); // { currency: 'USD', price: 132.05 }

getCurrentPrice

Returns a promise which resolves with only the current price, as a number.

Example

const price = await yahooStockPrices.getCurrentPrice("AAPL");
console.log(price); // 132.05

For backward compatibility with earlier versions you can also provide a callback as the second parameter, in which case no promise will be returned.

yahooStockPrices.getCurrentPrice("AAPL", (err, price) => {
  console.log(price); // 132.05
});

Returns a promise that resolves with an array of prices for ticker symbol within dates.

ticker string (stock ticker symbol)
