# googlefinance
Python module to get stock data from Google Finance API

This module provides **no delay**, **real time** stock data in NYSE & NASDAQ. 
 
Another awesome module, [yahoo-finance](https://github.com/lukaszbanasiak/yahoo-finance)'s data is delayed by 15 min, but it provides convenient apis to fetch historical day-by-day stock data.

##Install
From PyPI with pip:
	
	$pip install googlefinance

From development repo (requires git)

	$git clone https://github.com/hongtaocai/googlefinance.git
	$cd googlefinance
	$python setup.py install

##Usage example

	>>> from googlefinance import getQuotes
	>>> import json
	>>> print json.dumps(getQuotes('AAPL'), indent=2)
	[
	  {
