Assignment 3: Ajax, JSON, Responsive Design and Node.js
Stock Search
(AJAX/JSON/HTML5/Bootstrap/Angular /Node.js/Cloud Exercise)
1. Objectives
● Get familiar with the AJAX and JSON technologies
● Use a combination of HTML5, Bootstrap and Angular on client side
● Use Node.js on server side
● Get familiar with Bootstrap to enhance the user experience using responsive design
● Get hands-on experience of Cloud services hosting NodeJS/Express
● Learn to use popular APIs such as the Finnhub API, Polygon.io API and Highcharts API
● Learn how to manage and access a NoSQL DBMS like MongoDB Atlas, in the cloud
2. Background
2.1 AJAX and JSON
AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript + XML) incorporates several technologies
● Standards-based presentation using CSS
● Result display and interaction using the Document Object Model (DOM)
● Data interchange and manipulation using XML and JSON
● Asynchronous data retrieval using XMLHttpRequest
● JavaScript binding everything together
See the class slides on D2L Brightspace.
JSON, short for JavaScript Object Notation, is a lightweight data interchange format. Its main
application is in AJAX web application programming, where it serves as an alternative to the use
of the XML format for data exchange between client and server. See the class slides on D2L
Brightspace.
2.2 Bootstrap
Bootstrap is a free collection of tools for creating responsive websites and web applications. It
contains HTML and CSS-based design templates for typography, forms, buttons, navigation, and
other interface components, as well as optional JavaScript extensions. To learn more details
about Bootstrap please refer to the lecture material on Responsive Web Design (RWD). We
recommend using Bootstrap 4.6 through 5.3, Angular 12 through 17, and ng-bootstrap 11
through 16 in this assignment. See the RWD class slides on D2L Brightspace for the list of
dependencies between these various versions.

2.3 Cloud Services
2.3.1 Google App Engine (GAE)
Google App Engine applications are easy to create, easy to maintain, and easy to scale as your
traffic and data storage needs change. With App Engine, there are no servers to maintain. You
simply upload your application and it’s ready to go. App Engine applications automatically scale
based on incoming traffic. Load balancing, microservices, authorization, SQL and NoSQL
databases, memcache, traffic splitting, logging, search, versioning, roll out and rollbacks, and
security scanning are all supported natively and are highly customizable.
To learn more about GAE support for Node.js visit this page:
https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/standard/nodejs/
2.3.2 Amazon Web Services (AWS)
AWS is Amazon’s implementation of cloud computing. Included in AWS is Amazon Elastic
Compute Cloud (EC2), which delivers scalable, pay-as-you-go compute capacity in the cloud,
and AWS Elastic Beanstalk, an even easier way to quickly deploy and manage applications in the
AWS cloud. You simply upload your application, and Elastic Beanstalk automatically handles
the deployment details of capacity provisioning, load balancing, auto-scaling, and application
health monitoring. Elastic Beanstalk is built using familiar software stacks such as the Apache
HTTP Server, PHP, and Python, Passenger for Ruby, IIS for .NET, and Apache Tomcat for Java.
To learn more about AWS support for Node.js visit this page:
https://aws.amazon.com/getting-started/projects/deploy-nodejs-web-app/
2.3.3 Microsoft Azure
Microsoft Azure is a cloud computing service created by Microsoft for building, testing,
deploying, and managing applications and services through a global network of
Microsoft-managed data centers. It provides software as a service (SaaS), platform as a service
(PaaS) and infrastructure as a service (IaaS) and supports many different programming
languages, tools, and frameworks, including both Microsoft-specific and third-party software and
systems.
To learn more about Azure support for Node.js visit this page:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/javascript/azure/?view=azure-node-latest

2.4 Angular
Angular is a toolset for building the framework most suited to your application development. It is
fully extensible and works well with other libraries. Every feature can be modified or replaced to
suit your unique development workflow and feature needs. Angular combines declarative
templates, dependency injection, end-to-end tooling, and integrated best practices to solve
development challenges. Angular empowers developers to build applications that live on the web,
mobile, or the desktop.
For this homework, Angular 12+ (Angular 12, through 17) can be used, but Angular 12 is
recommended. Please note Angular 12+ will need familiarity with Typescript and
component-based programming.
To learn more about Angular, visit this page:
https://angular.io/
2.5 Node.js
Node.js is a JavaScript runtime built on Chrome's V8 JavaScript engine. Node.js uses an
event-driven, non-blocking I/O model that makes it lightweight and efficient. Node.js package
ecosystem, npm, is the largest ecosystem of open-source libraries in the world.
To learn more about Node.js, visit:
https://Node.js.org/en/
Also, Express.js is strongly recommended. Express.js is a minimal and flexible Node.js web
application framework that provides a robust set of features for web and mobile applications. It is
in fact the standard server framework for Node.js.
To learn more about Express.js, visit:
http://expressjs.com/
Important Note: All APIs calls should be done through your Node.js server

3. High-Level Description
In this exercise you will create a webpage that allows users to search for stocks using the
Finnhub API and display the results on the search page. The application evolves from the
previous homework.
A user will first open a page as shown below in Figure 1, where the user can enter a stock ticker
symbol and select from a list of matching stock symbols using “autocomplete.” A quote on a
matched stock symbol can be performed. The description of the Search Box is given in Section
3.1. Instructions on how to use the API are given in Section 4. All implementation details and
requirements will be explained in the following sections.
There are 4 routes for this application:
a) Home Route [‘/’] redirected to [‘/search/home’]– It is the default route of this
application.
b) Search Details Route [‘/search/’] – It shows the details of the
searched
c) Watchlist Route [‘/watchlist’] – It displays the watchlist of the user.
d) Portfolio Route [‘/portfolio’] – It displays the portfolio of the user.
When a user initially opens your web page, the initial search page should look like in Figure 1.
Figure 1: Initial Search Page
5
3.1 Search Page / Homepage
3.1.1 Design
You must replicate the Search Bar displayed in Figure 1 using a Bootstrap form. The Search
Bar contains three components.
1. Stock Ticker: This is a text box, which enables the user to search for valid stocks by
entering keywords and/or accepting a suggestion of all possible tickers. Notice the
“helper” text inside the search box.
2. Search Button: The “Search” button (which uses the widely used search icon), when
clicked, will read the value from the textbox and send the request to the backend server.
On a successful response, details for that stock will be displayed.
3. Clear button: The ‘clear’ (cross marked) button, would clear out the currently searched
results page and show the initial search page.
3.1.2 Search Execution
Search can be executed in the following ways:
1. Once the user enters a ticker symbol and directly presses the Return key or clicks on the
“Search” button, without using the auto-complete suggestion, your application should
make an HTTP call to the Node.js script hosted on GA/AWS/Azure back end (the Cloud
Services). The Node.js script on Cloud Services will then make a request to the Finnhub
API services to get the detailed information. If the entered ticker is invalid and no data is
found, an appropriate error message should be displayed. If valid stock data is found, the
search results should be loaded.
2. Once the user starts typing a ticker symbol, autocomplete suggestions (See Section 3.1.3
below) will populate below the search bar. A matched ticker can be selected. Upon
clicking the dropdown selection, the search should start automatically, and execute
identically as described in the previous paragraph.
3.1.3 Autocomplete
A Search Bar allows a user to enter a keyword (Stock ticker symbol) to retrieve information.
Based on the user input, the text box should display a list of all the matching company’s ticker
symbols with the company’s name (see Figure 2). The autocomplete JSON data is retrieved from
the Finnhub Search API (refer to Section 4.1.4).
The autocomplete response is filtered using the criteria: type= ‘Common Stock’, Symbol doesn’t
contain ‘.’(dot)
These are examples of calling this API:
https://finnhub.io/api/v1/search?q=&token=
# or
6
https://finnhub.io/api/v1/search?q=&token=
For example:
https://finnhub.io/api/v1/search?q=apple&token=
The autocomplete function should be implemented using Angular Material. Refer to Section
5.3 for more details.
Figure 2: Autocomplete Suggestion
3.2 Search Results Page
3.2.1 Details of Searched Stock
After the user executes a search for a ticker, a page should route to /search/ path
(example: /search/AMZN). The following components need to be displayed on successful
search:
● Symbol, company name, trading Exchange (such as NASDAQ), and a Buy button on top
left, The Sell button should appear alongside the Buy button only when the portfolio
has purchased stocks of a company. See Figure 3.3;
● Last price, change, percent change, and date/time, on top right. The change items should
be preceded by appropriately colored arrows;
● Company Logo and Indication of open / closed market in the top-center;
● Summary, Top News, Charts and Insights tabs.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If the user navigates to the watchlist route or the portfolio route, and
navigates back to the search results page, the previously searched stock results should remain on
7
the search/ route. Also, results data should be retrieved from a state/service and not be
fetched from a new search API call.
Please refer to Figures 3.1, 3.2, 3.3 below.
Figure 3.1: Search Details page overview (Market is Closed)
Figure 3.2: Search Details page overview (Market is Open)
8
Figure 3.3: Search Details page overview (Dynamic Sell button when the portfolio has
purchased stock of the company)
● When the user clicks on the star icon, the white star turns yellow, and that ticker should
be stored in MongoDB Atlas. A self-closing alert should be displayed at the top and that
stock should be visible on the Watchlist Page (see Section 3.3).
● When the user clicks on the Buy button, a modal window should open. which will display
the details (stock symbol, current price, money in wallet, input for quantity of shares to
buy and total price for the shares), as shown in Figure 3.5. Note that:
o The Buy button should be disabled if the user inputs a quantity < 1 or the quantity
field is empty or the quantity leading to total more than money in wallet (see
Figure 3.5);
o The Buy button will be enabled once the user enters a number greater than 0 and
suitable quantity up to total equals (or less than) money in the wallet (see Figure
3.4).
● The Sell option is available on the homepage only when there is at least 1 quantity of
stock available in the portfolio. Upon clicking the Sell button, similar behavior as the buy
transaction should be implemented, along with the constraint being able to sell only the
stocks owned.
● Error messages should be shown for an attempt to buy more than the possible quantity
of stocks using the money in wallet/attempt to sell more than the number of stocks owned
in Portfolio. See Figure 3.5 for reference.
● A self-closing transaction alert message should be shown for both buy and sell
transactions as in Figure 3.4a.

Figure 3.10: Error Alert.
3.3 Watchlist Menu
This menu will display all the stocks that are added to the watchlist by the user. This watchlist
will be maintained in MongoDB Atlas. For more details on MongoDB Atlas, see section 5.4 and
Figure 3.11.
● If the change is positive, the color of the ‘c’, ‘d’ and ‘dp’ keys should be green
● If the change is negative, the color of the ‘c’, ‘d’ and ‘dp’ keys should be red
● If there is no change, the color of the ‘c’, ‘d’ and ‘dp’ keys should be black.
● When clicking on the close button on the right-top corner of the card (the “x”), it should
remove the stock from the watchlist and display an updated watchlist.
● When clicking on the card, it should open the details route of that ticker (stock).
● If the watchlist is empty, it should display the alert as shown in Figure 3.12.
‘c’, ‘d’ and ‘dp’ key should be used from Table 4.3.
NOTE: ‘percentage change’ should be rounded off to 2 decimal places.
Upon clicking any area of the watchlist card, the user should be navigated to the search details
page of that stock. Initially a loading “spinner” is displayed until the watchlist is pulled from the
database.
17
Figure 3.11: Watchlist menu page
Figure 3.12: Watchlist Empty Alert
3.4 Portfolio Menu
This menu will display all the stocks that have been bought by the user (i.e., the current portfolio
of the user). This portfolio will be maintained in the MongoDB Atlas. For more details on
MongoDB Atlas, see Section 5.4 and Figure 3.13.
18
To simulate real-world stock trading and allow the user to incur profits/losses, a wallet feature
should be implemented. Initialize the cash balance in the wallet to be $25,000.00 using
MongoDB Atlas. Users will use this cash balance to trade stocks.
Update the money spent and gained during buy and sell transactions, accordingly. The initial
price of stock when buying it, and the current change in price should be used to update the
balance in the wallet for profit and loss. Initially a loading spinner is displayed until the portfolio
is pulled from the database.
In particular:
● If the current rate is greater than the rate at which user bought it, then color of the
‘Change’, ‘Current Price’ and ‘Current Total’ keys should be green;
● If the change is negative, the color of the ‘Change’, ‘Current Price’ and ‘Current Total’
keys should be red;
● If there is no change, the color of the ‘Change’, ‘Current Price’ and ‘Current Total’ keys
should be black;
● When clicking on the Buy button, a modal should open as shown in Figure 3.15. The
Buy button inside the modal should be disabled if the quantity entered by the user is not
valid, as shown in Figure 3.14. Valid input should be (a) greater than 0, with (b) quantity
that produces a total less than available cash in the wallet and (c) must be non-empty;
● When clicking on the Sell button, a modal should open as shown in Figure 3.17 and
3.18. The Sell button inside the modal should be disabled if the quantity entered by the
user is not valid. Input is Valid if, 0described in Table 3.6;
● When clicked on card’s header part, it should open the search details route of that ticker
(stock);
● If the portfolio is empty, it should display the alert as shown in Figure 3.14.
‘c’ key should be used from Table 4.3 for ‘Current Price’. ‘Current Change’ and ‘Current
Total’ should be calculated as shown in Table 3.5.
Quantity Total Number of stocks bought by the user. It
Should be more than 0, otherwise remove it
from the portfolio in MongoDB Atlas.
Total Cost Total cost is the sum of the total cost paid for
all the purchases of the stock. For Example, if
user has bought 10 stocks of AAPL in past, at
the rate of 200, and today if user buys another
10 stocks of AAPL at the current price, i.e.
300, then the Total Cost for the user will be
(10*200) + (10*300) = 5000.
So Quantity is 20 and Total Amount is 5000.
Average Cost per Share (Total Cost / Quantity)
19
Current Price ‘c’ key from the table 4.3
Change (Average Cost per Share – Current Price) of
the stock. Here, Current Price is ‘c’ key from
the table 4.3
Market Value (Current Price * Qty), here Current Price is
‘c’ key from Table 4.3 and Qty is the number
of stocks present in the user's portfolio.
Table 3.6: Fields used in Portfolio Cards.
Alerts should be displayed for successful buy and sell transactions, which should auto-close.

4.1.2 Company’s Historical Data
You should extract the content of Time Series Data from the returned JSON object to construct a
chart which is responsible for displaying (close) price and volume. The chart is provided by
HighCharts. Find more information about HighCharts at:
https://www.highcharts.com/demo
https://www.highcharts.com/demo/stock/area
https://www.highcharts.com/demo/stock/candlestick-and-volume
The historical data for the ticker can be obtained from Polygon.io “Aggregate (Bars)” Service.
Please refer to the API documentation at:
https://polygon.io/docs/stocks/get_v2_aggs_ticker__stocksticker__range__multiplier___timespa
n___from___to
for more details on the Service.
API Sample:
GET: /v2/aggs/ticker/{stocksTicker}/range/{multiplier}/{timespan}/{from}/{to}
https://api.polygon.io/v2/aggs/ticker/AAPL/range/1/day/2023-01-09/2023-07-09?adjusted=true&
sort=asc&apiKey=ctO8iVF_Gi19afBovU1ZSr6UIxqt8Fr3
29
When constructing the HTTP request required to obtain the Company Stock Chart, you need to
provide 6 values:
1. The first value, the stockTicker the user entered in the form.
2. The second value, the multiplier, is the size of the timespan multiplier. Should be a 1.
3. The third value, the timespan, should be day.
4. The fourth value, the from date, is the start of the aggregate time window. Either a date
with the format YYYY-MM-DD or a millisecond timestamp. This should be 6 months
and 1 day prior to the current date. You can use Python DateUtils’s “relativedelta” to
calculate the date. Please refer to
https://dateutil.readthedocs.io/en/stable/relativedelta.html for more details.
5. The fifth value, to, is the end of the aggregate time window. Either a date with the format
YYYY-MM-DD or a millisecond timestamp. It should be the current date (Today’s date).
6. The sixth value, the query string, should contain
“adjusted=true&sort=asc&apiKey=YOUR_KEY”, where the apiKey is your Api Key that
you created. Do not use the limit parameter, as it will conflict with the from/to dates.
Limit will default to 5,000, which is enough for 6 months of data.
Note: The Service only accepts dates in UNIX timestamps so you will need to convert dates to
UNIX epoch time.
The response of this HTTP request is a JSON-formatted object. Figure 4.2 shows a sample
response from the request. You need to parse this JSON object and extract some fields as
required.
Figure 4.2: Sample JSON response from Polygon.io API’s Aggregate (Bars) Endpoint
30
The data obtained from the API can then be mapped to the HighCharts dataset using the
mapping below.
Chart Data Data from polygon.io Aggregate (Bars) service JSON
response
Date The value of key “t”. The time stamp is given in the Unix epoch
time.
Stock Price The value of key “c”
Volume The value of key “v”
Table 4.1: Mapping JSON data and HighCharts data
Note: Map each returned array element for each attribute, by its index. For example, for date
(timestamp) t[0], close price is c[0] and volume is v[0].
For mapping the Stock price data to data for HighCharts, create an array of data points (x1, y1)
where x1 will be the date and y1 will be the corresponding close stock price for that day. This
array will then act as an input dataset for your HighCharts. Please refer to links in Assignment 2
for more details.
Similarly create another array of points (x2, y2) where x2 will be the date and y1 will be the
volume for that day. This array will be the second input for your HighCharts. Since you will be
plotting Stock Price vs Date and Volume vs Date you will have two different datasets and two
y-axis and a single x-axis.
Initially, the chart shows the historical stock price (in blue line with filling the area below, two
digits after decimal) and volume (in gray bar) for the past six months by an interval of one day.
Figure 4.3 shows an example of the Stock Price/Volume chart.
