Yahoo API OEL - Versions < 1.5.0 will not function. #46

Closed tyrauber closed 1 year ago

tyrauber commented 6 years ago

On November 1st, 2017, Yahoo Finance terminated public access to the API and stock_quote ceased to function in it's current state. Therefore, Version 1.5.0 now utilizes the Google Finance API and although functionally similar, the results, and therefore attributes, have changed. Please update accordingly.

Unfortunately, every version below 1.5.0 is broken due to the change. Sorry for the inconvenience.

On March 17, 2018, Google Finance terminated public access to it's API. As a result, previous versions of stock_quote ceased to function. Therefore, Version 2.0.0 of stock_quote now uses the IEX Trading API (iextrading.com). Although some functionality is similar, the results, and therefore attributes, have changed. Please review the documentation below and update accordingly.
