Robinhood the rich and feeding the poor, now automated

Even though robinhood makes me poor

Notice

2022-05-24

Robinhood updated their API and our auth method broke. The new authentication requires using your email as your username, so if you see an error message about an invalid email, you'll need to update your username.

If you have used this library before, and use credential caching, you will need to remove any credential cache and rebuild if you experience errors.

General usage

cli, err := robinhood.Dial(&robinhood.OAuth{
  Username: "[email protected]",
  Password: "mypasswordissecure",
})

// err

i, err := cli.GetInstrumentForSymbol("SPY")

// err

o, err := cli.Order(i, robinhood.OrderOpts{
  Price: 100.0,
  Side: robinhood.Buy,
  Quantity: 1,
})

// err

time.Sleep(5*time.Second) //Let me think about it some more...

// Ah crap, I need to buy groceries.

err := o.Cancel()

if err != nil {
  // Oh well
}
