Python CLI for kFinance

kFinance

The kFinance Python library provides a simple interface for the LLM-ready API, streamlining API requests and response handling. It can be used on its own, with LLMs, or integrated into applications.

For a complete overview of the functions, usage, and features of the kFinance Python library, please refer to documentation here.

Any questions or suggestions can be sent to the kFinance Maintainers.

Setup

You can install kFinance on PyPI via

pip install kensho-kfinance

Getting started

To receive access, please email S&P Global Market Intelligence for information on free trials and pricing.

Once access is obtained, get started using the Authentication Guide and Usage Guide.

To get started, we provide some notebooks:

• The LLM-ready API Basic Usage notebook demonstrates how fetch data with the kFinance client.
• The tool_calling notebooks show how the kFinance library can be used for tool calling. We provide notebooks for OpenAI (GPT), Anthropic (Claude), and Google (Gemini). Each of these integrations comes in a langchain version, which uses langchain as a wrapper to simplify the integration, and as a lower level non-langchain version.

We also provide an interactive notebook that demonstrates some usage examples.

Versioning

The kFinance uses semantic versioning (major, minor, patch). To bump the version, add a new entry in CHANGELOG.md. This will generate a new version of the library as part of the release process.
