Yahoo! Finance is the Internet's leading business news and financial data website. It is a part of Yahoo! and gives information about financial news, market statistics, international market data and other information about financial resources that anyone can access.
If you are a registered Yahoo! user, then you can customize Yahoo! Finance to take advantage of its certain offerings. Yahoo! Finance API is used to query financial data from Yahoo!
This API displays data that is delayed by 15-minutes from real time, and updates its database every 1 minute, to access current stock-related information. Now let us take a real-time scenario of a company and see how to raise an alert when its stock value goes below 100.
The purpose of spout is to get the details of the company and emit the prices to bolts. You can use the following program code to create a spout.
import java.util.*; import java.io.*; import java.math.BigDecimal; //import yahoofinace packages import yahoofinance.YahooFinance; import yahoofinance.Stock; import backtype.storm.tuple.Fields; import backtype.storm.tuple.Values; import backtype.storm.topology.IRichSpout; import backtype.storm.topology.OutputFieldsDeclarer; import backtype.storm.spout.SpoutOutputCollector; import backtype.storm.task.TopologyContext; public class YahooFinanceSpout implements IRichSpout { private SpoutOutputCollector collector; private boolean completed = false; private TopologyContext context; @Override public void open(Map conf, TopologyContext context, SpoutOutputCollector collector){ this.context = context; this.collector = collector; } @Override public void nextTuple() { try { Stock stock = YahooFinance.get("INTC"); BigDecimal price = stock.getQuote().getPrice(); this.collector.emit(new Values("INTC", price.doubleValue())); stock = YahooFinance.get("GOOGL"); price = stock.getQuote().getPrice(); this.collector.emit(new Values("GOOGL", price.doubleValue())); stock = YahooFinance.get("AAPL"); price = stock.getQuote().getPrice(); this.collector.emit(new Values("AAPL", price.doubleValue())); } catch(Exception e) {} } @Override public void declareOutputFields(OutputFieldsDeclarer declarer) { declarer.declare(new Fields("company", "price")); } @Override public void close() {} public boolean isDistributed() { return false; } @Override public void activate() {} @Override public void deactivate() {} @Override public void ack(Object msgId) {} @Override public void fail(Object msgId) {} @Override public Map<String, Object> getComponentConfiguration() { return null; } }
Here the purpose of bolt is to process the given company’s prices when the prices fall below 100. It uses Java Map object to set the cutoff price limit alert as true when the stock prices fall below 100; otherwise false. The complete program code is as follows −
import java.util.HashMap; import java.util.Map; import backtype.storm.tuple.Fields; import backtype.storm.tuple.Values; import backtype.storm.task.OutputCollector; import backtype.storm.task.TopologyContext; import backtype.storm.topology.IRichBolt; import backtype.storm.topology.OutputFieldsDeclarer; import backtype.storm.tuple.Tuple; public class PriceCutOffBolt implements IRichBolt { Map<String, Integer> cutOffMap; Map<String, Boolean> resultMap; private OutputCollector collector; @Override public void prepare(Map conf, TopologyContext context, OutputCollector collector) { this.cutOffMap = new HashMap <String, Integer>(); this.cutOffMap.put("INTC", 100); this.cutOffMap.put("AAPL", 100); this.cutOffMap.put("GOOGL", 100); this.resultMap = new HashMap<String, Boolean>(); this.collector = collector; } @Override public void execute(Tuple tuple) { String company = tuple.getString(0); Double price = tuple.getDouble(1); if(this.cutOffMap.containsKey(company)){ Integer cutOffPrice = this.cutOffMap.get(company); if(price < cutOffPrice) { this.resultMap.put(company, true); } else { this.resultMap.put(company, false); } } collector.ack(tuple); } @Override public void cleanup() { for(Map.Entry<String, Boolean> entry:resultMap.entrySet()){ System.out.println(entry.getKey()+" : " + entry.getValue()); } } @Override public void declareOutputFields(OutputFieldsDeclarer declarer) { declarer.declare(new Fields("cut_off_price")); } @Override public Map<String, Object> getComponentConfiguration() { return null; } }
This is the main application where YahooFinanceSpout.java and PriceCutOffBolt.java are connected together and produce a topology. The following program code shows how you can submit a topology.
import backtype.storm.tuple.Fields; import backtype.storm.tuple.Values; import backtype.storm.Config; import backtype.storm.LocalCluster; import backtype.storm.topology.TopologyBuilder; public class YahooFinanceStorm { public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception{ Config config = new Config(); config.setDebug(true); TopologyBuilder builder = new TopologyBuilder(); builder.setSpout("yahoo-finance-spout", new YahooFinanceSpout()); builder.setBolt("price-cutoff-bolt", new PriceCutOffBolt()) .fieldsGrouping("yahoo-finance-spout", new Fields("company")); LocalCluster cluster = new LocalCluster(); cluster.submitTopology("YahooFinanceStorm", config, builder.createTopology()); Thread.sleep(10000); cluster.shutdown(); } }
The complete application has three Java codes. They are as follows −
The application can be built using the following command −
javac -cp “/path/to/storm/apache-storm-0.9.5/lib/*”:”/path/to/yahoofinance/lib/*” *.java
The application can be run using the following command −
javac -cp “/path/to/storm/apache-storm-0.9.5/lib/*”:”/path/to/yahoofinance/lib/*”:. YahooFinanceStorm
The output will be similar to the following −
GOOGL : false AAPL : false INTC : true
