Stock-List-Extract-Android

Simple App to extract the list of ticker symbols from R

IF you need only the file: last updated at 2021.02.14

file: stock_list_1613311888669.csv

Setup:

• create a config.gradle file
• give the needed resource ids. you may figure it out with the syncservice
• I don't want them to be in the repo, I don't know if it would cause any trouble

Usage:

• install the application on your phone
• Start the application
• Click on Start Service
• Enable Accessibility Service (Downloaded Services)
• Click on Start Service again
• Notice a notification is shown (if not force stop the app and start from point 2)
• Navigate to R All Stocks List
• Tap on the Notification
• Notice the app starts to load from the screen (the notification is updated)
• Wait until the notification disappears and the screen is scrolled until the end
• Go back to this app
• Notice it now shows all the tickers at the bottom and you can send the file to somewhere else

Notes:

• the app does not have internet permission, so you don't have to worry that something is leaving your device that you do not want to
• after finishing the sync the AccessibilityService is disabled (at least above api 24, if you have a solution below please let me know)
• the file format is CSV meaning the tickers are separated by comma, easy to include into google sheets or other programs.
