finagg is a Python package that provides implementations of popular and free financial APIs, tools for aggregating historical data from those APIs into SQL databases, and tools for transforming aggregated data into features useful for analysis and AI/ML.
- Documentation: https://theogognf.github.io/finagg/
- PyPI: https://pypi.org/project/finagg/
- Repository: https://github.com/theOGognf/finagg
Install with pip for the latest stable version.
pip install finagg
Install from GitHub for the latest unstable version.
git clone https://github.com/theOGognf/finagg.git
pip install ./finagg/
Optionally install the recommended datasets (economic data, company financials, stock histories, etc.) from 3rd party APIs into a local SQL database.
finagg install -ss economic -ts indices -z -r
The installation will point you where to get free API keys for each API that
requires one and will write those API keys to a local .env
file for storage.
Run finagg install --help
for more installation options and details.
These are just finagg usage samples. See the documentation for all the supported APIs and features.
These methods require internet access and API keys/user agent declarations.

API keys and user agent declarations are required for most of the APIs. You can set environment variables to expose your API keys and user agents to finagg, or you can pass your API keys and user agents to the implemented APIs programmatically. The following environment variables are used for configuring API keys and user agents:
BEA_API_KEY
is for the Bureau of Economic Analysis's API key. You can get a free API key from the BEA API site.FRED_API_KEY
is for the Federal Reserve Economic Data API key. You can get a free API key from the FRED API site.INDICES_API_USER_AGENT
is for scraping popular indices' compositions from Wikipedia and should be equivalent to a browser's user agent declaration. This defaults to a hardcoded value, but it may not always work.SEC_API_USER_AGENT
is for the Securities and Exchange Commission's API. This should be of the formatFIRST_NAME LAST_NAME E_MAIL
.
finagg's root path, HTTP cache path, and database path are all configurable
through environment variables. By default, all data related to finagg is put
in a ./findata
directory relative to a root directory. You can change these
locations by modifying the respective environment variables:
FINAGG_ROOT_PATH
points to the parent directory of the./findata
directory. Defaults to your current working directory.FINAGG_HTTP_CACHE_PATH
points to the HTTP requests cache SQLite storage. Defaults to./findata/http_cache.sqlite
.FINAGG_DATABASE_URL
points to the finagg data storage. Defaults to./findata/finagg.sqlite
.
You can change some finagg behavior with other environment variables:
FINAGG_DISABLE_HTTP_CACHE
: Set this to"1"
or"True"
to disable the HTTP requests cache. Instead of a cachable session, a default, uncached user session will be used for all requests.
- pandas for fast, flexible, and expressive representations of relational data.
- requests for HTTP requests to 3rd party APIs.
- requests-cache for caching HTTP requests to avoid getting throttled by 3rd party API servers.
- SQLAlchemy for a SQL Python interface.
- yfinance for historical stock data from Yahoo! Finance.
- The BEA API and the BEA API key registration link.
- The FRED API and the FRED API key registration link.
- The SEC API.
- FinRL is a collection of financial reinforcement learning environments and tools.
- fredapi is an implementation of the FRED API.
- OpenBBTerminal is an open-source version of the Bloomberg Terminal.
- sec-edgar is an implementation of a file-based SEC EDGAR parser.
- sec-edgar-api is an implementation of the SEC EDGAR REST API.
Aggregate some data, create some analysis notebooks, or create some RL environments using the implemented data features and SQL tables. This project was originally created to make RL environments for financial applications but has since focused its purpose to just aggregating financial data and features. That being said, all the implemented features are defined in such a way to make it very easy to develop financial AI/ML, so we encourage you to do just that!
Implemented APIs may be relatively new and simply may not provide data for a particular ticker or economic data series. For example, earnings per share may not be accessible for all companies through the SEC EDGAR API. In some cases, APIs may raise an HTTP error, causing installations to skip the ticker or series. Additionally, not all tickers and economic data series contain sufficient data for feature normalization. If a ticker or series only has one data point, that data point could be dropped when computing a feature (such as percent change), causing no data to be installed.
Python 3.10 and up are supported. We don't plan on supporting lower versions because 3.10 introduces some nice quality of life updates that are used throughout the package.
The package is developed and tested on both Linux and Windows, but we recommend using Linux or WSL in practice. The package performs a good amount of I/O and interprocess operations that could result in a noticeable performance degradation on Windows.
