# S&P 500 Stock Screener
A simple Node.js application for screening stocks and uploading that data to a google spreadsheet, without any external dependencies.
## Setup
1. **Clone the repository:**
```bash
git clone https://www.git.mfoi.dev/stock-screener.git/
cd stock-screener
```
2. **Configure environment variables:**
- Create a `.env` file in the root directory following the template.
- Example `.env`:
```
PORT=3000
STOCK_SCREENER_AUTH_TOKEN=1234567
```
## Running the Server
First, [install Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/download/) if you haven't already.
Start the server with:
```bash
node server.js
```
The server will run on the port specified in your `.env` file.
## Usage
The server has two purposes:
1. Update the stock metrics to the spreadsheet weekly.
2. Provide a REST API for updating the spreadsheet on demand.
The only endpoint is `http://localhost:{env.PORT}/api/update-stock-screener?token=${env.STOCK_SCREENER_AUTH_TOKEN}`.
This is meant to be run in the background but still allows for manual triggering via the API. Obviously, you should secure this endpoint in a production environment.
