Subject: New module for UK unit trusts - ftfunds
Date: Mon, 31 Jan 2011 01:19:16 +0000
To: bug-Finance-Quote [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Martin Sadler <martin.sadler [...] btinternet.com>

Please find attached a new module I've developed to retrieve quotes for
UK unit trusts, etc. from the Financial Times web-site
http://funds.ft.com/.

This module uses the MEXID to retrieve data on over 47,000 funds quoted
on this site.

This is my first attempt at perl programming so I'd appreciate any
feedback on any errors or improvements in my code.

BTW - my e-mail address on sourceforge.net is
martinsadler@users.sourceforge.net. I'd appreciate the use of this
e-mail address in any publicly-accessible files posted on CPAN or
sourceforge.net.

Best regards,

+=head1 NAME
+
+Finance::Quote::ftfunds - Obtain UK Unit Trust quotes from FT.com (Financial Times).
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ $q = Finance::Quote->new;
+
+ %info = Finance::Quote->fetch("ftfunds","<mexid> ..."); # Only query FT.com using MEXIDs
+ %info = Finance::Quote->fetch("ukfunds","<isin>|<sedol>|<mexid>..."); # Failover to other sources
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This module fetches information from the Financial Times Funds service,
+http://funds.ft.com. There are over 47,000 UK Unit Trusts and OEICs quoted,
+as well as many Offshore Funds and Exhange Traded Funds (ETFs). It converts
+any funds quoted in GBX (pence) to GBP, dividing the price by 100 in the
+process.
+
+Funds are identified by their MEXID code, a 4-6 letter code. Although the
+web site also allows searching by SEDOL or ISIN codes, this version of
+Finance::Quote::ftfunds only implements MEXID lookup. To determine the MEXID
+for funds of interest to you, visit the funds.ft.com site and use the flexible
+search facilities to identify the funds of interest. The factsheet display for
+any given fund displays the MEXID, SEDOL and ISIN along with other useful information.
+
+This module is loaded by default on a Finance::Quote object. It's
+also possible to load it explicity by placing "ftfunds" in the argument
+list to Finance::Quote->new().
+
+Information obtained by this module may be covered by funds.ft.com
+terms and conditions See http://funds.ft.com/ and http://ft.com for details.
+
+=head2 Stocks And Indices
+
+This module provides both the "ftfunds" and "ukfunds" fetch methods for
+fetching UK and Offshore Unit Trusts and OEICs prices and other information
+from funds.ft.com. Please use the "ukfunds" fetch method if you wish to have
+failover with future sources for UK and Offshore Unit Trusts and OEICs - the
+author has plans to develop Finance::Quote modules for the London Stock Exchange
+and Morningstar unit trust services. Using the "ftfunds" method will guarantee
+that your information only comes from the funds.ft.com website.
+
+=head1 LABELS RETURNED
+
+The following labels may be returned by Finance::Quote::ftfunds :
+
+ name, currency, last, date, time, price, nav, source, method,
+ iso_date, net, p_change, success, errormsg.
+
