Finance...e::Stooq(3)

πŸ’… Finance::Quote::Stooq(3) β€” user contributed perl documentation, bestie

okay so this is the Finance...e::Stooq(3) manual page and it's literally your cheat sheet for pulling stock quotes out of stooq. it's giving "small module, big vibes." let's get into it 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

Finance::Quote::stooq β€” Obtain quotes from stooq Stock Exchange. periodt. πŸ’…


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

like, here's how you actually use it:

    use Finance::Quote;

    $q = Finance::Quote->new;

    %info = $q->fetch("stooq", "ISLN.UK");  # Only query stooq

    %info = $q->fetch("poland", "LRQ");     # Failover to other sources OK.

that's it. that's the whole thing. slay. ✨


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so this module fetches information from <https://stooq.com/>. that's the whole vibe β€” it goes out, grabs the data, brings it back to you.

it's loaded by default on a Finance::Quote object (yes, automatically, no you don't have to do anything 😌). but if you're feeling extra and wanna load it explicitly, just drop "stooq" into the argument list you pass to Finance::Quote->new().

this module provides three fetch methods, and they're all iconic:

  • "stooq"
  • "poland"
  • "europe"
⚠️ heads up bestie: information obtained by this module may be covered by Warsaw Stock Exchange terms and conditions. not me being the responsible one for once. read those, fr fr.

πŸŽ€ LABELS RETURNED πŸŽ€

the following labels are returned β€” memorize the list, it's short and it ate:

  • name
  • symbol
  • open
  • high
  • low
  • last
  • bid
  • ask
  • date
  • currency

ten labels, all accounted for, nothing missing. πŸ’–


πŸ™ˆ Caveat πŸ™ˆ

okay so here's the annoying part, and I need you to listen:

when accessed from Europe, the website requires cookie consent. 😭 and many of the cookies are set via Google's "Google's Privacy & messaging tool (formerly known as Google Funding Choices)".

so what does that mean for you? it may be necessary to manually capture cookies in a browser and replace the values in this module. yes, manually. with your own two hands. I know. it's giving 2010. but that's the situation, ngl.


and that's the page!! you understood all of it, I'm so proud of you πŸ₯Ή
