        ## Overview
        
        Current Version: **0.1.0**
        
        The unofficial Python API client library for TD Ameritrade allows individuals with
        TD Ameritrade accounts to manage trades, pull historical and real-time data, manage
        their accounts, create and modify orders all using the Python programming language.
        
        To learn more about the TD Ameritrade API, please refer to
        the [official documentation](https://developer.tdameritrade.com/apis).
        
        ## Setup
        
        **Setup - Requirements Install:***
        
        For this particular project, you only need to install the dependencies, to use the project. The dependencies
        are listed in the `requirements.txt` file and can be installed by running the following command:
        
        ```console
        pip install -r requirements.txt
        ```
        
        After running that command, the dependencies should be installed.
        
        **Setup - Local Install:**
        
        If you are planning to make modifications to this project or you would like to access it
        before it has been indexed on `PyPi`. I would recommend you either install this project
        in `editable` mode or do a `local install`. For those of you, who want to make modifications
        to this project. I would recommend you install the library in `editable` mode.
        
        If you want to install the library in `editable` mode, make sure to run the `setup.py`
        file, so you can install any dependencies you may need. To run the `setup.py` file,
        run the following command in your terminal.
        
        ```console
        pip install -e .
        ```
        
        If you don't plan to make any modifications to the project but still want to use it across
        your different projects, then do a local install.
        
        ```console
        pip install .
        ```
        
        This will install all the dependencies listed in the `setup.py` file. Once done
        you can use the library wherever you want.
        
        **Setup - PyPi Install:**
        
        To **install** the library, run the following command from the terminal.
        
        ```console
        pip install py-tda-api
        ```
        
        **Setup - PyPi Upgrade:**
        
        To **upgrade** the library, run the following command from the terminal.
        
        ```console
        pip install --upgrade py-tda-api
        ```
        
        ## Usage
        
        Here is a simple example of using the `td` library.
        
        ```python
        from pprint import pprint
        from configparser import ConfigParser
        from td.credentials import TdCredentials
        from td.client import TdAmeritradeClient
        
        
        # Initialize the Parser.
        config = ConfigParser()
        
        # Read the file.
        config.read('config/config.ini')
        
        # Get the specified credentials.
        client_id = config.get('main', 'client_id')
        redirect_uri = config.get('main', 'redirect_uri')
        
        # Intialize our `Credentials` object.
        td_credentials = TdCredentials(
            client_id=client_id,
            redirect_uri=redirect_uri,
            credential_file='config/td_credentials.json'
        )
        
        # Initalize the `TdAmeritradeClient`
        td_client = TdAmeritradeClient(
            credentials=td_credentials
        )
        
        # Initialize the Quotes service.
        quote_service = td_client.quotes()
        
        # Grab a single quote.
        pprint(
            quote_service.get_quote(instrument='AAPL')
        )
        
        # Grab multiple quotes.
        pprint(
            quote_service.get_quotes(instruments=['AAPL', 'SQ'])
        )
        ```

        ## Authentication Workflow
        
        **Step 1 - Start the Script:**
        
        While in Visual Studio Code, right click anywhere in the code editor while in the file that contains your code.
        The following dropdown will appear:
        
        ![Terminal Dropdown](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/areed1192/td-ameritrade-python-api/master/samples/instructions/photos/terminal_dropdown.jpg "Terminal Dropdown")
        
        From the dropdown, click `Run Python file in Terminal`, this will start the python script.
        
        **Step 2 - Go to Redirect URL:**
        
        The TD Library will automatically generate the redirect URL that will navigate you to the TD website for for
        you authentication. You can either copy the link and paste it into a browser manually or if you're using Visual
        Studio Code you can press `CTRL + Click` to have Visual Studio Code navigate you to the URL immeditately.
        
        ![Redirect URI](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/areed1192/td-ameritrade-python-api/master/samples/instructions/photos/redirect_uri.jpg "Redirect URI")
        
        **Step 3 - Login to the TD API:**
        
        Once you've arrived at the login screen, you'll need to provide your credentials to authenticate the session.
        Please provide your Account Username and Account Password in the userform and then press enter. As a reminder
        these, are the same username/password combination you use to login to your regular TD Account.
        
        !["TD Login](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/areed1192/td-ameritrade-python-api/master/samples/instructions/photos/td_login.jpg "TD Login")
        
        **Step 4 - Accept the Terms:**
        
        Accept the Terms of the API by clicking `Allow`, this will redirect you.
        
        ![TD Terms](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/areed1192/td-ameritrade-python-api/master/samples/instructions/photos/td_terms.jpg "TD Terms")
        
        **Step 5 - Copy the Authorization Code:**
        
        After accepting the terms, you'll be taken to the URL that you provided as your `redirect URI`. However, at
        the end of that URL will be `authorization code`. To complete the authentication workflow, copy the URL as
        it appears below. Don't worry if the numbers don't match, as you will have a different code.
        
        ![Auth Code](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/areed1192/td-ameritrade-python-api/master/samples/instructions/photos/auth_code.jpg "Auth Code")
        
        **Step 6 - Paste the Authorization Code in the Terminal:**
        
        Take the URL and copy it into the Terminal, after you have pasted it, press `Enter`. The authentication workflow
        will complete and the script will start running. At this stage, we are exchanging your authorization code for
        an access token. That access token is valid only for 30 minutes. However, a refresh token is also stored that
        will refresh your access token when it expires.
        
        ![Paste URL](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/areed1192/td-ameritrade-python-api/master/samples/instructions/photos/paste_url.jpg "Paste URL")
        
        After, that the script should run. Additionally, if you go to the location you specified in the `credentials_path`
        arugment you will now see `td_state.json` file. This file contains all the info used during a session. Please
        DO NOT DELETE THIS FILE OR ELSE YOU WILL NEED TO GO THROUGH THE STEPS ABOVE.
