ast-0.2.5 release
Today I released version 0.2.5 of AST. There were many bugs fixed in this
release as well as some neat new features. Among them are:
1. You can now plot your portfolio on the charts and comparison. This is a
neat feature allowing you to compare your historical performance vs. an index
or security. This plot uses your current holdings and does factor in
transactions. The reason for this decision is because you will see
discontinuities in the chart if you add or remove capital.
2. All of the symbol entry forms have an Ajax suggester. When typing a symbol
name you will see a list of symbols in AST's database that start with what
you typed.
3. Even more markets are now supported, including all German markets. You can
now enter ISIN numbers into AST, but they are translated into Symbol /
Market. Once I get a database of ISIN numbers AST will fully support storage
of ISIN numbers.
4. I have added a new command line quote fetcher, called afetch. It allows you
to query AST's quote database from the command line, for use in other
applications, website or maybe importing into a spreadsheet for analysis. It
is built by default, to use it do:
./afetch --type daily --symbols X.TO
07/01/16|47.64|46.93|47.51|47.30|481300|47.51
...
You can type afetch --help for more information on how to use it. AST has an
efficient caching system in which it only fetches data when its needed. This
makes afetch very fast for repetitive queries such as those on websites.
5. I've found a new tool called po4a which should make translation easier. It
can translate the HTML files with a standard gettext po file, so the work
required to translate those should greatly decrease.
6. I have now included an x86_64 binary file in the release. Also the name of
the files has changed to conform to standards.
I hope you enjoy this release. If you have any problems installing or
upgrading your system, please feel free to contact me or the mailing list of
assistance.
