Now Supporting IEX Cloud
------------------------

Python SDK for `IEX Cloud <https://iexcloud.io>`__ and the legacy
Version 1.0 `Investors Exchange (IEX) <https://iextrading.com/>`__
`Developer API <https://iextrading.com/developer/>`__. Architecture mirrors
that of the IEX Cloud API (and its `documentation <https://iexcloud.io/docs/api/>`__).

``iexfinance`` will maintain compatibility and support for the
IEX Version `Developer API <https://iextrading.com/developer/>`__ until June
2019.

An easy-to-use toolkit to obtain data for Stocks, ETFs, Mutual Funds,
Forex/Currencies, Options, Commodities, Bonds, and Cryptocurrencies:

- Real-time and delayed quotes
- Historical data (daily and minutely)
- Financial statements (Balance Sheet, Income Statement, Cash Flow)
- Analyst estimates, Price targets
- Corporate actions (Dividends, Splits)
- Sector performance
- Market analysis (gainers, losers, volume, etc.)
- IEX market data & statistics (IEX supported/listed symbols, volume, etc)

Documentation
-------------

Stable documentation is hosted on
`github.io <https://addisonlynch.github.io/iexfinance/stable/>`__.

`Development documentation <https://addisonlynch.github.io/iexfinance/devel/>`__ is also available for the latest changes in master.


Install
-------

From PyPI with pip (latest stable release):

``$ pip3 install iexfinance``

From development repository (dev version):

.. code:: bash

$ git clone https://github.com/addisonlynch/iexfinance.git
$ cd iexfinance
$ python3 setup.py install


Basics
------

``iexfinance`` is designed to mirror the structure of the IEX Cloud API. The
following IEX Cloud endpoint groups are mapped to their respective
``iexfinance`` modules:

- Account - ``account`` (`iexfinance docs <https://addisonlynch.github.io/iexfinance/stable/account.html>`__ | `IEX Docs <https://iexcloud.io/docs/api/#account>`__)
- Stocks - ``stocks`` (`iexfinance docs <https://addisonlynch.github.io/iexfinance/stable/stocks.html>`__ | `IEX Docs <https://iexcloud.io/api/docs/#stocks>`__)
- Alternative Data - ``altdata`` (`iexfinance docs <https://addisonlynch.github.io/iexfinance/stable/altdata.html>`__ | `IEX Cloud Docs <https://iexcloud.io/docs/api/#alternative-data>`__)
- Reference Data - ``refdata`` (`iexfinance docs <http://addisonlynch.github.io/iexfinance/stable/refdata.html>`__ | `IEX Cloud Docs <https://iexcloud.io/docs/api/#reference-data>`__)
- Investors Exchange Data - ``iexdata`` (`iexfinance docs <http://addisonlynch.github.io/iexfinance/stable/iexdata.html>`__ | `IEX Cloud Docs <https://iexcloud.io/docs/api/#investors-exchange-data>`__)
- API System Metadata - ``apidata`` (`iexfinance docs <http://addisonlynch.github.io/iexfinance/stable/apistatus.html>`__ | `IEX Cloud Docs <https://iexcloud.io/docs/api/#api-system-metadata>`__)

The most commonly-used
endpoints are the `Stocks <https://iexcloud.io/docs/api/#stocks>`__
endpoints, which allow access to various information regarding equities,
including quotes, historical prices, dividends, and much more.

The ``Stock`` `object <https://addisonlynch.github.io/iexfinance/stable/stocks.html#the-stock-object>`__
provides access to most endpoints, and can be instantiated with a symbol or
list of symbols:

.. code-block:: python

from iexfinance.stocks import Stock

aapl = Stock("AAPL")
aapl.get_balance_sheet()

The rest of the package is designed as a 1:1 mirror. For example, using the
`Alternative Data <https://iexcloud.io/docs/api/#alternative-data>`__ endpoint
group, obtain the `Social Sentiment <https://iexcloud.io/docs/api/#social-sentiment>`__ endpoint with
``iexfinance.altdata.get_social_sentiment``:

.. code-block:: python

from iexfinance.altdata import get_social_sentiment

get_social_sentiment("AAPL")


Configuration
-------------

Selecting an API Version
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

*Note to Version 1.0 users:* see `Migrating to IEX Cloud <https://addisonlynch.github.io/stable/migrating.html>`__ for more information
about migrating to IEX Cloud.

``iexfinance`` now supports both active IEX APIs: `IEX Cloud <https://iexcloud.io>`__, as well as the
legacy `Version 1.0 IEX Developer API <https://iextrading.com/developer/docs/>`__.

The IEX API version can be selected by setting the environment variable
``IEX_API_VERSION`` to one of the following values:

- ``v1`` for IEX legacy Version 1.0 `Developer API <https://iextrading.com/developer/docs/>`__
- ``iexcloud-beta`` for the current beta of `IEX Cloud <https://iexcloud.io/docs/api/>`__

IEX is continuing support for the legacy API until at least May 29th, 2019.

Output Formatting
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

By default, ``iexfinance`` returns data formatted *exactly* as received from
the IEX Endpoint. `pandas <https://pandas.pydata.org/>`__ ``DataFrame`` output
formatting is available for most endpoints.

pandas ``DataFrame`` output formatting can be selected by setting the
``IEX_OUTPUT_FORMAT`` environment variable to ``pandas`` or by passing
``output_format`` as an argument to any function call (or at the instantiation
of a ``Stock`` object).

Common Usage Examples
---------------------

The `iex-examples <https://github.com/addisonlynch/iex-examples>`__ repository provides a number of detailed examples of iexfinance usage. Basic examples are also provided below.


Real-time Quotes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

To obtain real-time quotes for one or more symbols, use the ``get_price``
method of the ``Stock`` object:

.. code:: python

from iexfinance.stocks import Stock
tsla = Stock('TSLA')
tsla.get_price()

or for multiple symbols, use a list or list-like object (Tuple, Pandas Series,
etc.):

.. code:: python

batch = Stock(["TSLA", "AAPL"])
batch.get_price()


Historical Data
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It's possible to obtain historical data using ``get_historical_data`` and
``get_historical_intraday``.

Daily
^^^^^

To obtain daily historical price data for one or more symbols, use the
``get_historical_data`` function. This will return a daily time-series of the ticker
requested over the desired date range (``start`` and ``end`` passed as
``datetime.datetime`` objects):

.. code:: python

from datetime import datetime
from iexfinance.stocks import get_historical_data

start = datetime(2017, 1, 1)
end = datetime(2018, 1, 1)

df = get_historical_data("TSLA", start, end)


For Pandas DataFrame output formatting, pass ``output_format``:

.. code:: python

df = get_historical_data("TSLA", start, end, output_format='pandas')

It's really simple to plot this data, using `matplotlib <https://matplotlib.org/>`__:

.. code:: python

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

df.plot()
plt.show()


Minutely (Intraday)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

To obtain historical intraday data, use ``get_historical_intraday`` as follows.
Pass an optional ``date`` to specify a date within three months prior to the
current day (default is current date):

.. code:: python

from datetime import datetime
from iexfinance.stocks import get_historical_intraday

date = datetime(2018, 11, 27)

get_historical_intraday("AAPL", date)

or for a Pandas Dataframe indexed by each minute:

.. code:: python

get_historical_intraday("AAPL", output_format='pandas')
