This library is useful to download and manipulate Financial indexes, stocks, quote data from the Yahoo web site
Examples
#!/usr/bin/env ruby require 'yahoo_finance' symbol = "FIA.MI" p YahooSymbol.new( symbol ).getQuote #!/usr/bin/env ruby require 'yahoo_finance' index = ARGV[0] || "^DJI" YahooIndex.new( index ).getSymbols.each { |s|
p s.getQuote['Symbol']
}
Copy this file in the rubylib directory (for example "/usr/lib/ruby/1.6")
I've tested this library with a Debian Linux 3.0 and
