# Get a list of dataset's resources
curl -L -s https://datahub.io/core/s-and-p-500-companies-financials/datapackage.json | grep path

# Get resources

curl -L https://datahub.io/core/s-and-p-500-companies-financials/r/0.csv

curl -L https://datahub.io/core/s-and-p-500-companies-financials/r/1.csv

curl -L https://datahub.io/core/s-and-p-500-companies-financials/r/2.zip

If you are using R here's how to get the data you want quickly loaded:

install.packages("jsonlite", repos="https://cran.rstudio.com/")
library("jsonlite")

json_file <- 'https://datahub.io/core/s-and-p-500-companies-financials/datapackage.json'
json_data <- fromJSON(paste(readLines(json_file), collapse=""))

# get list of all resources:
print(json_data$resources$name)

# print all tabular data(if exists any)
for(i in 1:length(json_data$resources$datahub$type)){
  if(json_data$resources$datahub$type[i]=='derived/csv'){
    path_to_file = json_data$resources$path[i]
    data <- read.csv(url(path_to_file))
    print(data)
  }
}

Note: You might need to run the script with root permissions if you are running on Linux machine

Install the Frictionless Data data package library and the pandas itself:

pip install datapackage
pip install pandas

Now you can use the datapackage in the Pandas:

import datapackage
import pandas as pd

data_url = 'https://datahub.io/core/s-and-p-500-companies-financials/datapackage.json'

# to load Data Package into storage
package = datapackage.Package(data_url)

# to load only tabular data
resources = package.resources
for resource in resources:
    if resource.tabular:
        data = pd.read_csv(resource.descriptor['path'])
        print (data)

For Python, first install the `datapackage` library (all the datasets on DataHub are Data Packages):

pip install datapackage

To get Data Package into your Python environment, run following code:

from datapackage import Package

package = Package('https://datahub.io/core/s-and-p-500-companies-financials/datapackage.json')

# print list of all resources:
print(package.resource_names)

# print processed tabular data (if exists any)
for resource in package.resources:
    if resource.descriptor['datahub']['type'] == 'derived/csv':
        print(resource.read())

If you are using JavaScript, please, follow instructions below:

Install data.js module using npm:

  $ npm install data.js

Once the package is installed, use the following code snippet:

const {Dataset} = require('data.js')

const path = 'https://datahub.io/core/s-and-p-500-companies-financials/datapackage.json'

// We're using self-invoking function here as we want to use async-await syntax:
;(async () => {
  const dataset = await Dataset.load(path)
  // get list of all resources:
  for (const id in dataset.resources) {
    console.log(dataset.resources[id]._descriptor.name)
  }
  // get all tabular data(if exists any)
  for (const id in dataset.resources) {
    if (dataset.resources[id]._descriptor.format === "csv") {
      const file = dataset.resources[id]
      // Get a raw stream
      const stream = await file.stream()
      // entire file as a buffer (be careful with large files!)
      const buffer = await file.buffer
      // print data
      stream.pipe(process.stdout)
    }
  }
})()

List of companies in the S&P 500 (Standard and Poor’s 500). The S&P 500 is a free-float, capitalization-weighted index of the top 500 publicly listed stocks in the US (top 500 by market cap). The dataset includes a list of all the stocks contained therein and associated key financials such as price, market capitalization, earnings, price/earnings ratio, price to book etc.

Data

Information on S&P 500 index used to be available on the official webpage on the Standard and Poor’s website but until they publish it back, Wikipedia is the best up-to-date and open data source.

  • Index listing - see <data/constituents.csv> extracted from Wikipedia’s SP500 list of companies
  • Constituent financials - see <data/constituents-financials.csv> (source via Yahoo Finance)

Detailed information on the S&P 500 (primarily in XLS format) used to be obtained from its official webpage on the Standard and Poor’s website - it was free but registration was required.

  • Index listing - see <data/constituents.csv> used to be extracted from source Excel file on S&P website (Note this Excel is actually S&P 500 EPS estimates but on sheet 4 it has list of members - [previous file][sp-lsting] was just members but that 404s as of Dec 2014) (Note: but note you have to register and login to access - no longer true as of August 2013)
  • Historical performance (source XLS on S&P website)

Notes:

  • Market Capitalization and EBIDTA are in Billions.

Note: For aggregate information on the S&P (dividends, earnings, etc), see Standard and Poor’s 500 Dataset.

Preparation

You can run the script yourself to update the data and publish them to GitHub : see scripts README.
