MarketWatch financials scraper

Scrapes any company's financials from MarketWatch.com, which includes income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow statement.

Asynchronous HTTP requests are currently used by default.

Dependencies

Should run on most Linux/Windows systems. Tested on Arch and Windows 10.

Building

Clone this repo, install build via pip, then run python -m build from the repository's root directory. This should produce a dist/ subdirectory with a wheel (build) and archive (source) distribution. The resulting whl-file can be installed via pip install path/dist/***.whl.

Running

$ python -m mwfin -h

gives a description of available CLI parameters and their usage. For example, running

$ python -m mwfin -f output.json -Q AAPL

will retrieve the most current available quarterly data from all three financial statements Apple Inc. has published and save it in JSON format to output.json.
