Stocks CLI

Stocks CLI is a small, simple CLI tool that fetches stock market information using OneGraph.

Running locally

Before running locally, we have to add a env.js file that exports our OneGraph API_ID. In order to get one, simply log in to your OneGraph Dashboard and choose an existing app or create a new one and copy its App Id in the Settings panel.

env.js

export const APP_ID = /* ID */

Now we can run the app using the following commands:

yarn
yarn build

# e.g. node lib sgrove
node lib [userName]

How it works

When calling the entry file using node it reads the stock id argument from the CLI input and fetches the stock information.

The query is as simple as this:

query stockInfo($stockId: String!) {
  stockDemo {
    quote(ticker: $stockId) {
      changePercent
      latestPrice
      companyName
    }
  }
}
