Up to date remote data access for pandas, works for multiple versions of pandas.

Warning

As of v0.6.0 Yahoo!, Google Options, Google Quotes and EDGAR have been immediately deprecated due to large changes in their API and no stable replacement.

Note

As of v0.6.0 Google finance is still functioning for historical price data, although there are frequent reports of failures. Failure is frequently encountered when bulk downloading historical price data.

Usage

Starting in 0.19.0, pandas no longer supports pandas.io.data or pandas.io.wb, so you must replace your imports from pandas.io with those from pandas_datareader:

from pandas.io import data, wb # becomes
from pandas_datareader import data, wb

Many functions from the data module have been included in the top level API.

import pandas_datareader as pdr
pdr.get_data_fred('GS10')
