This was on the old forum in the Completed Scripts section and today I decided to add it also here.
http://github.com/boyank/yoc
yoc (yahoo option chains)
That's version 2 and it works with yahoo.com website design since July 2016.It can be used as a command line tool for scraping financial options prices and related data from finance.yahoo.com
In ver.2 it requests and gets response in json format. There are a lot more data available. One can easily change the script to parse the json and extract any of these data.
Check the repo for more details.
