SnailClient

Purpose

Desktop GUI client for the Snail data pipeline.

It loads locally persisted stockholder/price records from SQLite and provides:

• search UI for stock queries
• simple result visualization via plotting
• basic profile utilities for shareholders

Repository structure

• src/snailmain.py — PyQt4 app entrypoint and main window
• src/getprice.py — shared price utilities for charted output
• src/snailmain.py database reads from stock.sqlite3 (generated by snail)
• src/snail.png, src/snail_120.png — app icons/resources

Quick start

python src/snailmain.py

Run snail collectors first to ensure stock.sqlite3 exists and has up-to-date data.

Notes

• The project is an early PyQt4-era client and assumes legacy runtime dependencies.
• It is best used as a local prototype and historical reference.
