Should we use our own Yahoo api secret? about ystockquote HOT 4 CLOSED

I haven't looked at the code base recently, but I don't think it requires a key, but instead just uses the data that Yahoo publishes freely.

from ystockquote.

Well than whats this ids variable in ystockquote.py:

def get_all(symbol):
"""
Get all available quote data for the given ticker symbol.

Returns a dictionary.
"""
    ids = \
        'ydb2r1b3qpoc1d1cd2c6t1k2p2c8m5c3m6gm7hm8k1m3lm4l1t8w1g1w4g3p' \
        '1g4mg5m2g6kvjj1j5j3k4f6j6nk5n4ws1xj2va5b6k3t7a2t615l2el3e7v1' \
        'e8v7e9s6b4j4p5p6rr2r5r6r7s7'
    values = _request(symbol, ids).split(',')
...

from ystockquote.

If you look down below that slightly, you'll see that each of these refers to a different data point returned from Yahoo:

def get_dividend_yield(symbol):
    return _request(symbol, 'y')


def get_dividend_per_share(symbol):
    return _request(symbol, 'd')


def get_ask_realtime(symbol):
    return _request(symbol, 'b2')

etc.
