**yahoo-finance-pynterface** is a Python package that provides a new interface to the Yahoo Finance API.

<br />

## Motivation
 [Yahoo Finance](https://finance.yahoo.com/) is by far the most popular (_and free!_) resource for financial data. 

Many packages have been distributed to provide access to such a resource in the recent past.<br />
However, most of such projects were aiming at filling the gap that the changes made in May, 2017 by the Yahoo Team left behind.

**yahoo-finance-pynterface** has been intended to provide a completely new interface to Yahoo Finance,<br />
and it is meant to offer effective methods to interact with its API. 

<br />

## About
**yahoo-finance-pynterface** makes an extensive use of [pandas](https://pandas.pydata.org/).<br />
As a consequence, most of the data retrieved are returned as `pandas.DataFrame` objects. 

Even if a stable release is available, the project has yet to be considered "complete" and many other features has yet to come!
Please, drop me an email if any comment/suggestion/remark pops up in your mind :)

<br />

## Requirements
**yahoo-finance-pynterface** is currently working on `Python >= 3.5` only. <br />
