It simplifies data retrieval by wrapping HTTP requests and returning results directly as pandas DataFrames, supporting both time-series datasets and non-time-series datatables. The package handles API authentication, retry logic, and SSL configuration.\n\nThe package depends on pandas, numpy, requests, and several utility libraries. It was last updated in November 2021 and is now archived; Nasdaq has released a newer Nasdaq Data Link Python client as the official successor. The original package remains functional for legacy integrations but receives no new features or maintenance.","worth_installing":"No, unless you are maintaining legacy code already using this package. The package is abandoned (last commit 2022-04-29) and Nasdaq explicitly recommends migrating to the newer Nasdaq Data Link Python client. For new projects, use the successor package instead. For existing code, evaluate migration feasibility before adding new dependencies on this unmaintained version."},"id":"quandl","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/quandl","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/quandl.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/quandl/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2021-11-11","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"Quandl","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Package for quandl API access"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":238900,"position":8928,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"3.7.0"}
