Stockplay

pure golang api server using alphavantage stock api.

How to run

make sure to install docker and docker-compose on your machine
set ALPHAVANTAGE_KEY on file docker-compose.yaml to your alphavantage's api key
run docker-compose up
the stock api server will be available at port :8080 on your host machine
for example curl --request GET --url 'http://localhost:8080/?symbol=IBM' will fetch IBM stock

Some stock market words still foreign to me.
Connecting the 2 services feels repetitive and error prone, if it's real world project I would like to use more defined format like protobuf (with or without grpc).
I like the idea of monorepo in this kind of project, the authors of the service can maintain client libraries and be responsible of every change in the service. If there any major breaking changes in the service we can catch early if dependant services break.
