Release - v2.6.1

Release Notes

Two changes for this release

Width -w option

With the -w option, you can optionally select a console width, in columns, to use with the trending display (-t). The default is 127 characters, but if you have a more narrow or wider screen, this can make the look a lot better.

Index Processing -n switch

This will simply disable the processing of the DOW, NASDAQ, and S&P500 index retrieval. These are scrapped from a website instead of being pulled from IEXCloud as they do not provide this data.

Notes:

• You don't need to build Quoter to use it. The quoter.jar file attached to the releases is directly executable. To run it, in a command prompt with java in your path, simply execute java -jar quoter.jar
• If you use Quoter via Snap on Linux, you should automagically get the new release.

Release - v2.5.4

Release Notes

This release is just a collection of small changes since the last release. These are mostly display items in the trending code, but I also added the ability to save a IEXCloud Sandbox key so you can easily hit their sandbox environment instead of production. This is really only useful during development as the returned information is not accurate.

Notes:

Release - v2.5.0

Release Notes

Two major changes in this version:

• The -t trend report has been enhanced to show the daily high/low spread for the last three months in addition to that day's close price. This needs more testing, but seems to work good so far. Please let me know if you find anything amiss.

• I've added a -b command line switch which forces the program to use the IEXCloud sandbox mode. This is useful for development when I'm making a lot of calls so they don't count against the monthly limits (although the data is not accurate.) Please remember if you use this mode (and I'm sure you won't) that you have to set the sandbox key with the -c switch so it will work. Remember to set it back when you are done.

Notes:

• You don't need to build Quoter to use it. The quoter.jar file attached to the releases is directly executable. To run it, in a command prompt with java in your path, simply execute java -jar quoter.jar
• If you use Quoter via Snap on Linux, you should automagically get the new release.

Release - v2.4.3

Release notes

Just a bug fix release. The export function didn't quote the commas correctly which meant each comma in a number created too many columns. Can't believe I missed this originally. But a quick easy fix.

I also added all of the index column names in the exported file. There a few that were added but I had neglected to add the column headers.

Release v2.4.2

Release Notes

I've updated the -v version command GitHub release check. No new functionality, but it should be more seamless for me to use this capability across my applications.

Release - v2.4.0

Release Notes

Added a latest version check to the -v command line switch. This will query the GitHub API and return the latest Quoter release.

Release - v2.3.3

Release Notes

Quotes for securities are pulled directly from IEXCloud.io. However, index data is scrapped from a financial website. They changed their page and I needed to update the scanning code. Index information should now be working.

Release - v2.3.0

Release Notes

• Added -z command line switch to disable colorized output

Release - v2.2.0

Release Notes

Key release in v2.2.0 is the ability to save symbols. If you have favorites you always use, you no longer need to type them onto the command line. You can save them and they will automatically be included in future executions.

New Command Line Switches

Option	Description
-s	Save the securities provided into the preferences system to be executed each time Quoter is run. If a -d Detailed or -t Trend is requested, the saved securities will be included. If a symbol is added on the command line it will be shown along with those that are saved. If -s is provided and there are already saved securities, the current list will overwrite the old list
-r	Remove saved securities. If you'd like them back you'll need to re-save them
-i	Ignore saved queries for this execution. They will remain saved

NOTE

You don't need to build quoter to use it. The quoter.jar file attached to the releases is directly executable. To run it, in a command prompt with java in your path, simply execute java -jar quoter.jar

Release - v2.1.0

This release was focused on the internals. While written in Java, it didn't take advantage of the object oriented capabilities as it should have. While there is still more to do, it is better now. It should also be somewhat easier to support in the future. This lead the the following improvements.

Changes

• Indexes now show the 52 week high and 52 week low values
• Export files now contain all of the details I pull from IEXCloud

Other than that, no major changes.
