check-ticker-symbol

Introduction

check-ticker-symbol is a simple Node.js module that checks whether a ticker (stock) symbol's format is valid or not. This module does not perform any lookup, it only checks the symbol's format.

Quick Start

$ npm install check-ticker-symbol --save

Usage

var cts = require('check-ticker-symbol');
...
if(cts.valid('GOOG')) { // returns TRUE
...
}

var symbolObject = cts.disassemble('GOOG.BY');
console.log(symbolObject.search);               // GOOG.BY
console.log(symbolObject.prefixedExchangeCode); // undefined
console.log(symbolObject.stock);                // GOOG
console.log(symbolObject.suffixedExchangeCode); // BY
