Overview

About

Maintained by Derek HolmesFirst published 2026-01-223 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Download, manage, and visualize via Shiny App 'Alphavantage financial data' https://www.alphavantage.co/documentation/. Data is downloaded and organized into `data.table` objects using a single calling function with optional helper functions to extract and simplify more complex data. A Shiny interface is also provided to download, manage, and graph asset prices and characteristics.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash

sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-alphavantagepf

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager
