alpaca-cli v0.2.0

Alpaca CLI

Manage your Alpaca portfolio from the comfort of your terminal!

Good when you want to trade inconspicuously (at work, at school, in a boring meeting), or if you're just a nerd like me.

Warning

You are responsible for your Alpaca account, and for using this software responsibly. Make sure that you know what a command will do before you run it. This tool is currently being developed only for my own personal use and amusement, and is distributed in the hope that others might find it interesting. It does not come with safety features and has no guarantees of correctness.

Installation

Make sure you have Node.js installed, and then run:

npm install -g alpaca-cli

This will install the alpaca command globally.

Get an api key from https://alpaca.markets, and configure your alpaca cli:

alpaca configure --id=<key-id> --secret=<secret-key>
