PyAlly Save
Ally Invest API Module for Python3
PyAlly Trading Library
Take control of your Ally Invest finances through Python. Buy stocks and options in an instant, and stay up-to-date with your investments.
Ally Invest's investment platform is perfect for smaller investors who value a mature web/mobile interface, and low brokerage fees. I made this wrapper so that I could more easily integrate the platform with Python, and reduce the need for human oversight on my account.
After setting up API keys, PyAlly can provide the basic/essential Ally brokerage transaction functions from a simple python request.
Make sure to read the docs!

Dev Environment Setup
To setup your dev environment, simply run:
make venv # run once
source venv/bin/activate # run for every new terminal
This will install the library requirements for debugging as well as some useful tools to lint, test, build, document, and deploy. See the Makefile for a list of useful targets.
Dev Environment Teardown
To exit the dev environment, simply run:
deactivate
or exit / logout your terminal.
Fixing Your Dev Environment
If your dev environment gets hosed, exit it, remove the venv directory, and run the setup above again.
