Research direction

Locate the get_ticker_price entry point and inspect how the IEX request parameters are assembled. Read the existing unit tests for this method, then add coverage for passing a forceFill option and confirm the generated request matches the Tiingo IEX endpoint requirements.

Description

easy feature hacktoberfest help wanted

Currently, The IEX endpoint supports more URL parameters than it had when this library was first written.

https://api.tiingo.com/documentation/iex

A full solution for this PR would do these two things:

  • Let people call get_ticker_price in such a way that supports setting a forceFill option
  • Update unit tests to check the new request is built correctly.
