股票代码查找 API

是否有任何类型的 API 只提供一个简单的符号查找服务?例如,输入一个公司名称,它会告诉你股票代码?我已经尝试过用屏幕抓取谷歌财经,但是过了一会儿,它限制了你的速度,你必须输入一个验证码。我正在批量查找2000个股票代码。有什么想法吗?

Your best bets are probably going with one of the other lookup services (still screen-scraping), and checking whether they don't require CAPTCHAs.

The last appears the least likely to require a CAPTCHA at any point, but it's worth checking all three.

Google Finance has an API - you probably have to apply for a developers key, but at least you'd save yourself the hassle of screen-scraping: http://code.google.com/apis/finance/reference.html

You can send an HTTP request to http://finance.yahoo.com requesting symbols, names, quotes, and all sorts of other data. Data is returned as a .CSV so you can request multiple symbols in one query.

So if you send:

http://finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=MSFT+F+ATT&f=sn

You'll get back something like:

"MSFT","Microsoft Corp"
"F","FORD MOTOR CO"
"ATT","AT&T"

Here is an article called Downloading Yahoo Data which includes the various tags used to request the data.

If you didn't want to sign up for a service, I'd probably go back to the exchanges themselves; most of them aren't CAPTCHAed yet...

The symbol lookup page for:

etc...

You can use yahoo's symbol lookup like so:

http://d.yimg.com/autoc.finance.yahoo.com/autoc?query=yahoo&callback=YAHOO.Finance.SymbolSuggest.ssCallback

Where query is the company name.

You'll get something like this in return:

YAHOO.Finance.SymbolSuggest.ssCallback(
{
"ResultSet": {
"Query": "ya",
"Result": [
{
"symbol": "YHOO",
"name": "Yahoo! Inc.",
"exch": "NMS",
"type": "S",
"exchDisp": "NASDAQ"
},
{
"symbol": "AUY",
"name": "Yamana Gold, Inc.",
"exch": "NYQ",
"type": "S",
"exchDisp": "NYSE"
},
{
"symbol": "YZC",
"name": "Yanzhou Coal Mining Co. Ltd.",
"exch": "NYQ",
"type": "S",
"exchDisp": "NYSE"
},
{
"symbol": "YRI.TO",
"name": "YAMANA GOLD INC COM NPV",
"exch": "TOR",
"type": "S",
"exchDisp": "Toronto"
},
{
"symbol": "8046.TW",
"name": "NAN YA PRINTED CIR TWD10",
"exch": "TAI",
"type": "S",
"exchDisp": "Taiwan"
},
{
"symbol": "600319.SS",
"name": "WEIFANG YAXING CHE 'A'CNY1",
"exch": "SHH",
"type": "S",
"exchDisp": "Shanghai"
},
{
"symbol": "1991.HK",
"name": "TA YANG GROUP",
"exch": "HKG",
"type": "S",
"exchDisp": "Hong Kong"
},
{
"symbol": "1303.TW",
"name": "NAN YA PLASTIC TWD10",
"exch": "TAI",
"type": "S",
"exchDisp": "Taiwan"
},
{
"symbol": "0294.HK",
"name": "YANGTZEKIANG",
"exch": "HKG",
"type": "S",
"exchDisp": "Hong Kong"
},
{
"symbol": "YAVY",
"name": "Yadkin Valley Financial Corp.",
"exch": "NMS",
"type": "S",
"exchDisp": "NASDAQ"
}
]
}
}
)

Which is JSON and very easy to work with.

Hush... don't tell anybody.

Google Finance does let you retrieve up to 100 stock quotes at once using the following URL:

www.google.com/finance/info?infotype=infoquoteall&q=[ticker1],[ticker2],...,[tickern]

For example:

www.google.com/finance/info?infotype=infoquoteall&q=C,JPM,AIG

Someone has deciphered the available fields here:

http://qsb-mac.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/Vermilion/Modules/StockQuoter/StockQuoter.py

The current price ("l") is real-time and the delay is on par with Yahoo Finance. There are a few quirks you should be aware of. A handful of stocks require an exchange prefix. For example, if you query "BTIM", you'll get a "Bad Request" error but "AMEX:BTIM" works. A few stocks don't work even with the exchange prefix. For example, querying "FTWRD" and "NASDAQ:FTWRD" both generate "Bad Request" errors even though Google Finance does have information for this NASDAQ stock.

The "el" field, if present, tells you the current pre-market or after-hours price.

Use YQL: a sql-like language to retrieve stuff from public api's: YQL Console (external link)

It gives you a nice XML file to work with!

You can use the "Company Search" operation in the Company Fundamentals API here: http://www.mergent.com/servius/

Use YQL and you don't need to worry. It's a query language by Yahoo and you can get all the stock data including the name of the company for the ticker. It's a REST API and it returns the results via XML or JSON. I have a full tutorial and source code on my site take a look: http://www.jarloo.com/yahoo-stock-symbol-lookup/

The NASDAQ site hosts separate CSV lists for ticker symbols in each stock exchange (NYSE, AMEX and NASDAQ). You need to complete the captcha and get the CSV dump.

http://www.nasdaq.com/screening/company-list.aspx

Currently, the NASDAQ web site publicly provides CSV files containing bulk listings -- it is broken up by first letter.
