Stalker

THIS IS CURRENTLY NOT AVAILABLE IN THE PUBLIC VERSION OF STOCKSTALKER the Stalker module is the most advanced aspect of the StockStalker, but in return, provides pretty great functionality.

The Stalker class is a asynchronous Stock Tracker, that can log Stocks in a highly configurable manner, in Parallel to your program.

The Stalker class looks like so:

Stalker

Stalker(self, target=, duration=, verbose=, name=, long_poll_delay=30, save=True, save_location="saves", dailyCallback=, doneCallback=):

• target is the ticker you want to track (crypto sooon)
• duration is the number of days you want to track the target
• verbose - set True if you want logging
• name - optional but highly recommended, the identification used in saves and logging
• long_poll_delay - how long you want it to check if the market is open for that day (just leave it at 30)
• save choose to save or not (highly recommended)
• save_location path to directory at which you want to save (ignore if your not saving)
• dailyCallback set to a StalkerCallback object, a function you want the program to call everyday
• doneCallbacksame as dailyCallback but runs after the program is finished

Once you created a Stalker object, you can run it with run(), this is asynchronus, so it doesnt wait for anything

If you want to wait until the thread is done, use wait()

If you want to forcefully stop the Object, use kill(), it tries to kill the program whenever it can, there may be a delay

StalkerCallback

The StalkerCallback class currently only really exists for orginization sake, but it will fufill more in the future.

This is used to populate the dailyCallback and doneCallback of a Stalker

It looks like so:

StalkerCallback(self, function=None):

Just set function to whatever function you want to eventually call.

Ex:

def Foo():
	print("Hi")
	
StalkerCallback(self, function=Foo):
