RE: Can bots pull stock quotes/data from Quandl datasets w/ a script? |

Yes, it is quite easy to write a script in Self to do this.
/**
* This scripts uses an XML web service on Quandl to access stock quotes.
* Please change the api-key to your own key.
*/
state StockQuote {
pattern "(what) (was) (the) [price quote] (of for) * today" template todayStockPrice();
pattern "(what) (was) (the) [price quote] (of for) * on * - * - *" template stockPrice();
function stockPrice() {
date = star[1] + "-" + star[2] + "-" + star[3];
price = Http.requestXML("https://www.quandl.com/api/v3/datasets/WIKI/" + star[0] + "/data.xml?api_key=kioDegFc4ZaczoSxmUzU&start_date=" + date + "&end_date=" + date + "&column_index=4", "dataset-data/data/datum/datum[2]");
if (price == null) {
return "Invalid stock ticker symbol or date.";
}
return star[0] + " - " + date + " - " + price;
}
function todayStockPrice() {
price = Http.requestXML("https://www.quandl.com/api/v3/datasets/WIKI/" + star + "/data.xml?api_key=kioDegFc4ZaczoSxmUzU&start_date=" + Date.date() + "&column_index=4", "dataset-data/data/datum/datum[2]");
if (price == null) {
return "Invalid stock ticker symbol or date.";
}
return star + " - today - " + price;
}
}
