# FakeStock

This is a simple API for test stock prices.

*NOTE: All data produced by this service is randomly generated and is purely for test and demo purposes.*

The API has a few endpoints:

- `/_ping` returns OK 200 with the build commit and the duration since the service has been up.
- `/exchanges` returns the exchanges supported by the service.
- `/tickers` returns all tickers stored in the system.
- `/tickers/:symbol` returns info on the given symbol.

All symbols are loaded from CSV files when the service starts. The service then randomly changes the price every 5 seconds randomly by a percentage of the current price.

## Hosting
A hosted version of this service runs on https://test.marketinfo.dev/ and is provided by Cloud 66 as a sample. You can host the service inside or outside a Docker container if you wish.

## Credits
Start price files are from NASDAQ website.
