## Installation

**Pyhoo requires Python >= 3.8**

```bash
pip install pyhoo
```

## Usage

Pyhoo is **simple**:

```python
import pyhoo

tickers = ['FB', 'AAPL', 'AMZN', 'GOOGL']
start = '2020-02-01'
end = '2020-11-02'

stock_prices = pyhoo.get('chart', tickers, start=start, end=end, granularity="1d")
financial_reports = pyhoo.get('fundamentals', tickers, start=start, end=end)
options = pyhoo.get('options', tickers, strikeMax=400.0)
```

The result of `pyhoo.get` is a formatted `pandas.DataFrame` (here for stock prices):

Pyhoo is **fast**, it uses concurrency to fire multiple requests at the same time. You can request all the tickers of the S&P500 in one shot.

Pyhoo is **still in development**, feel free to add more endpoints thanks to the `Config` object !

Currently, it supports three endpoints:

1. `chart`, for [OHLC](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-high-low-close_chart) data, basically stock prices
1. `fundamentals`, for financial data about the firm, see the [list of available reports](pyhoo/data/fundamentals_type_options.txt)
1. `options`, for detailed information on each call and put at each strike on specific tickers

## Troubleshooting

If running from a Jupyter Notebook, you may encounter the following error:

```python
RuntimeError: asyncio.run() cannot be called from a running event loop
```

This is because Jupyter Notebooks are running themselves in an event loop, and it is a known issue with `asyncio.run`.

There is a workaround, a bit hacky but gets the job done, using [nest_asyncio](https://github.com/erdewit/nest_asyncio).

```bash
pip install nest_asyncio
```

Then in the Notebook, before calling `pyhoo.get`:

```python
import nest_asyncio
nest_asyncio.apply()
```

And you should be ok !

## Contributing

Contributions are welcome !

Pyhoo uses [poetry](https://python-poetry.org) as package manager. You can find the installation instructions [here](https://python-poetry.org/docs/#installation).

It is recommended to install the virtual environment in the project folder if you use VSCode, to help the linter resolve imports:

```bash
poetry config virtualenvs.path --unset
poetry config virtualenvs.in-project true
```

Once Poetry is configured, you can install required dependencies with:

```bash
poetry install
```

The CI enforces strict typing, linting and coverage.
