DataReaders.jl

WORK IN PROGRESS!!!

A Julia library to get remote data via Requests.jl and get DataFrames thanks to DataFrames.jl.

Inspired by Pandas-DataReader.

Install

Pkg.clone("https://github.com/JuliaDataReaders/DataReaders.jl.git")

Usage

Import DataReaders

using DataReaders

Google daily finance

One symbol

julia> dr = DataReader("google");

julia> symb = DataSymbol("MSFT");

julia> dt_start = DateTime("2015-04-01");

julia> dt_end = DateTime("2015-04-15");

julia> response = get(dr, symb, dt_start, dt_end);

julia> df = DataFrame(response);

julia> println(df);

Several symbols

julia> dr = DataReader("google");

julia> symbols = DataSymbol.(["IBM", "MSFT"])
2-element Array{DataReaders.DataSymbol,1}:
 DataReaders.DataSymbol("IBM")
 DataReaders.DataSymbol("MSFT")

julia> dt_start = DateTime("2015-04-01");

julia> dt_end = DateTime("2015-04-15");

julia> multi_symbol_response = get(dr, symbols, dt_start, dt_end);

julia> data = DataFrame(multi_symbol_response);
