Python SDK for the UniBit API

UniBit

A Python module to get stock data and news from the UniBit API

UniBit is a free API that provides real time and historical financial data, as well as financial news. This SDK is a client-side implementation of the UniBit API (https://www.unibit.ai) which has Python functions for each available API call. For the UniBit API documentation, visit (https://unibit.ai/docs)

To get started, sign up at (https://unibit.ai/signup) to request a free access key. With a free key, all non-news API features are available with generous rate limits.

The UniBit Stock News API requires a premium account, but in return gives a wealth of news articles on all 8000 US-listed companies. Along with this, UniBit provides analyses on each news article. With deep learning, each article is classified into a comprehensive genre list, and named entities and sentiment are also extracted.

Update

Unibit python SDK is now available for Version2 APIs! For the API documentation, visit (https://unibit.ai/docs/V2.0/introduction) For the python SDK for Version2 APIs, go to Version2 APIs example

aapl_profile = ci.getCompanyProfile(ticker=["AAPL"])

Get Apple's Stock News

from unibit_api_v2.news import StockNews
sn = StockNews(key = "YOUR_KEY")
aapl_news = sn.getStockNews(ticker = ["AAPL"], startDate = "2019-08-25", endDate = "2019-08-30", startMinute = "10:00:00", endMinute = "11:00:00", genre = "partnership", sector = "technology")

from unibit_api_v2.crypto import CryptoPrice
cp = CryptoPrice(key = "YOUR_KEY")
historical_crypto_price = cp.getHistoricalCryptoPrice(ticker=["BCH-USD"], startDate = "2019-08-25", endDate = "2019-08-30")

Get Forex Rate

from unibit_api_v2.forex import ForexRate
fr = ForexRate(key = "YOUR_KEY")
realtime_forex = fr.getRealtimeForexRates(base = "usd", foreign = ["cny","eur","inr"], amount = 1, startDate = "2019-08-29", endDate = "2019-08-29", startMinute = "11:00:00", endMinute = "12:00:00")

Contribute!

In the UniBit Python SDK, we not only want to wrap the UniBit API, but open source methods of stock analysis, be it with some fancy quantitative strategy, with graphing, or with machine learning. Propose something in an issue or contact me at [e-mail] if you want to help!
