Configuration
=============

Configure stockfolio with a ~/.stockfolio.yml, which is loaded before every command request.

For example, to configure where the database is stored:
    
    #
    db: ~/Dropbox/.stockfolio.db

By default the database file is stored in ~/.stockfolio.db

Motivation
==========

After seeing all that user tracking news regarding Google, I've decided to not be logged in on google when doing searches, which meant moving away from a few tools for me including Google Finance and particularly the Portfolio section, which gave me a nice quick glance at my stock portfolio.

For a while I was not sure of which form the replacement would take and after running into Hirb and Boson, I decided that a command line tool was just going to be fine, I could store the database file where I want

TODO
====

Encrypting database file
Rework buy/sell commands
Support for short sell and buy to cover
