Web Service to generate fake stock prices for test and demo purposes

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.
