Bit of a face palm but obviously `LevelLine.delete()` also removes any
`._marker` from the view which makes it disappear permanently when
moving from non-zero to zero to non-zero positions.. We don't really
need to delete the line since it can be re-used so just remove that
code.
Further this patch removes marker style setting logic from within the
`pp_line()` factory and instead expects the caller to set the correct
"direction" (for long / short) afterward.
- Every time a symbol is switched on chart we need to wait until the
search bar sidepane has been added beside the slow chart before
determining the offset for the pp line's arrow/labels; trigger this in
`GodWidget.load_symbol()` -> required monkeypatching on a
`.mode: OrderMode` to the `.rt_linked` for now..
- Drop the search pane widget removal from the current linked chart,
seems faster?
- On the slow chart override the `LevelMarker.scene_x()` callback to
adjust for the case where no L1 labels are shown beside the y-axis.
Also adds a `GodWidget.resize_all()` helper method which resizes all
sub-widgets and charts to their default ratios and/or parent-widget
dependent defaults using the detected available space on screen. This is
a "default layout" config method that eventually we'll probably want
allow users to customize.
In other words instead of some static view size previously determined by
the accompanying (slow) chart's height, (recursively) calculate the
number of displayed rows and compute the minimal height needed. This
still caps the view at the height of the chart such that the view will
switch to scroll bar mode when too many results are shown and can't all
be fit in the vertical space.
Deats:
- add a ``CompleterView.iter_df_rows()`` which recursively iterates all
rows in depth-first order making it simple to compute the absolute
number of result rows in view and thus the minimal number of pixels to
show all results.
- always pass the height in the `.on_resize()` handler to ensure
triggering the height logic when new results are generated in the
search loop.
Scales the "view" instance that holds search results to the size of the
accompanying "slow chart" for which the search pane is a "sidepane".
A lot of mucking about was required due to resizing of the view
seemingly feeding back into window resizing and further implementing the
sizing logic such that the parent `QSplitter` can be resized as the
user's whim as well.
Details,
- add a `CompleterView._init: bool` which is set once (and only once)
after startup where the first display of the current symbol/feed is
shown allowing and a single *width* padding applied once at startup
to ensure we don't have an awkward line to the right of the longest
result.
- in `.resize_to_results()` only apply a minimum height to the view
using `.setMinimumHeight()` with a down-scaled (`0.91` for now) height
value from input.
- re-implement `CompleterView.show_matches()` to accept and optional
width, heigh tuple and when not supplied pull the slow chart's
dimensions and pass as input to the resize method.
- Make `SearchWidget` x dim sizing policy "fixed".
- register the `SearchWidget` for resize events with god.
- add `.show_only_cache_entries()` for easy results clearing.
- add `.space_dims()` to retrieve slow linked-charts dimensions.
- implement `SearchWidget.on_resize()` which is the caller of all the
previously mentioned resizing routines.
- do resizing and cache entry showing on search loop startup and be sure
to clear to cache when the user selects a symbol-feed with Enter.
It ended up being what'd you expect, races on the accessing shm buffer
data by the UI during the whole "mega-async-startup-everything" phase XD
So we add the following list of ad-hoc startup steps:
- do `.default_view()` on the slow chart after the fast chart is mostly
fully spawned with the intention being to capture the state where the
historical buffer is mostly loaded before sizing the view to the
graphical form of the data.
- resize slow chart sidepanes from the fast chart just before sleeping
forever (and after order mode has booted).
Turns out god widget resizes aren't triggered implicitly by window
resizes, so instead, hook into the window by moving what was our useless
method to that class. Further we explicitly define and declare that our
window has a `.godwidget: GodWidget` and set it up in the bootstrap
phase - in `run_qutractor()` during `trio` guest mode configuration.
Further deatz:
- retype the runtime/bootstrap routines to take a qwidget "type" not an
instance, and drop the whole implicit `.main_widget` stuff.
- delegate into the `GodWidget.on_win_resize()` for any window resize
which then triggers all the custom resize callbacks we already had in
place.
- privatize `ChartnPane.sidepane` so that it can't be mutated willy
nilly without calling `.set_sidepane()`.
- always adjust splitter sizes inside `LinkeSplits.add_plot()`.
More or less moves all the UI related position "nav" logic and graphics
item management into a new `._position.Nav` composite type + api for
high level mgmt of position graphics indicators across multiple charts
(fast and slow).
The slow (history) chart requires it's own y-range checker logic which
needs to be run in 2 cases:
- the last datum is in view and goes outside the previous mx/mn in view
- the chart is incremented a step
Since we need this duplicate logic this patch also factors the incremental
graphics update info "reading" into a new `DisplayState.incr_info()`
method that can be configured to a chart and input state and returns all
relevant "graphics update measure" in a tuple (for now).
Use this method throughout the rest of the display loop for both fast
and slow chart checks and in the `increment_history_view()` slow chart
task.
Use the new `Feed.get_ds_info()` method in a poll loop to definitively
get the inter-chart sampling info and avoid races with shm buffer
backfilling.
Also, factor the history increment closure-task into
`graphics_update_loop()` which will make it clearer how to factor
all the "should we update" logic into some `DisplayState` API.
Add an update call to the display loop to consistently update the last
datum in the history view chart. Compute the inter-chart sampling ratio
and use it to sync the linear region.
Add a first draft of a working `pyqtgraph.LinearRegionItem` link between
a history view chart (+ data set) and the normal real-time "HFT" chart
set.
Add the history view (aka more downsampled data view) chart set to the
rt/hft set's splitter as it's "first widget". Hook up linear region
callbacks to enable syncing between charts including compenstating for
the downsampling rate ration (in this case hardcoded 60 since 1s to 1M,
but we'll actually compute it going forward obvs).
More to come dawgys..
Adds an additional `GodWidget.hist_linked: LinkedSplits` alongside the
renamed `.rt_linked` to enable 2 sets of linked charts with different
sampled data sets/flows. The history set is added without "all the
fixins" for now (i.e. no order mode sidepane or search integration) such
that it is merely a top level chart which shows a much longer term
history and can be added to the UI via embedding the entire history
linked-splits instance into the real-time linked set's splitter.
Further impl deats:
- adjust the `GodWidget._chart_cache: dict[str, tuple]]` to store both
linked split chart sets per symbol so that symbol switching will
continue to work with the added history chart (set).
- rework `.load_symbol()` to operate on both the real-time (HFT) chart
set and the history set.
- rework `LinkedSplits.set_split_sizes()` to compensate for the history
chart and do more detailed height calcs arithmetic to make it appear
by default as a minor sub-chart.
- adjust `LinkedSplits.add_plot()` and `ChartPlotWidget` internals to allow
adding a plot without a sidepane and/or container `ChartnPane`
composite widget by checking for a `sidepane == False` input.
- make `.default_view()` accept a manual y-axis offset kwarg.
- adjust search mode to provide history linked splits to
`.set_chart_symbol()` call.
Clearly, the linter didn't help us here.. but, just pass the
`brokerd` time for now in the `.broker_time` field; we can't get it from
the fill-case incremental updates in the `openOrders` sub. Add some
notes about this and how we might approach for backends with this
limitation.
This fixes a regression added after moving the msg parsing to later in
the order mode startup sequence. The `Allocator` needs to be configured
*to* the initial pos otherwise default settings will show in the UI..
Move the startup config logic from inside `mk_allocator()` to
`PositionTracker.update_from_pp()` and add a flag to allow setting the
`.startup_pp` from the current live one as is needed during initial
load.
Turns out we were putting too many brokername suffixes in the symbol
field and thus the order mode msg parser wasn't matching the current
asset to said msgs correctly and pps weren't being shown...
This repairs that plus simplifies the order mode initial pos msg loading
to just delegate into `process_trade_msg()` just as is done for
real-time msg updates.
If a setting fails to apply try to log an error msg and revert to the
previous setting by not applying the UI read-update until after the new
`SettingsPane.apply_setting()` call. This prevents crashes when the user
tries to give bad inputs on editable allocator fields.
Quite a simple fix, we just assign the account-specific
`PositionTracker` to the level line's `._on_level_change()` handler
instead of whatever the current `OrderMode.current_pp` is set to.
Further this adds proper pane switching support such that when a user
modifies an order line from an account which is not the currently
selected one, the settings pane is changed to reflect the
account and thus corresponding position info for that account and
instrument B)
This includes darks, lives and alerts with all connecting clients
being broadcast all existing order-flow dialog states. Obviously
for now darks and alerts only live as long as the `emsd` actor lifetime
(though we will store these in local state eventually) and "live" orders
have lifetimes managed by their respective backend broker.
The details of this change-set is extensive, so here we go..
Messaging schema:
- change the messaging `Status` status-key set to:
`resp: Literal['pending', 'open', 'dark_open', 'triggered',
'closed', 'fill', 'canceled', 'error']`
which better reflects the semantics of order lifetimes and was
partially inspired by the status keys `kraken` provides for their
order-entry API. The prior key set was based on `ib`'s horrible
semantics which sound like they're right out of the 80s..
Also, we reflect this same set in the `BrokerdStatus` msg and likely
we'll just get rid of the separate brokerd-dialog side type
eventually.
- use `Literal` type annots for statuses where applicable and as they
are supported by `msgspec`.
- add additional optional `Status` fields:
-`req: Order` to allow each status msg to optionally ref its
commanding order-request msg allowing at least a request-response
style implicit tracing in all response msgs.
-`src: str` tag string to show the source of the msg.
-`reqid: str | int` such that the ems can relay the `brokerd`
request id both to the client side and have one spot to look
up prior status msgs and
- draft a (unused/commented) `Dialog` type which can be eventually used
at all EMS endpoints to track msg-flow states
EMS engine adjustments/rework:
- use the new status key set throughout and expect `BrokerdStatus` msgs
to use the same new schema as `Status`.
- add a `_DarkBook._active: dict[str, Status]` table which is now used for
all per-leg-dialog associations and order flow state tracking
allowing for the both the brokerd-relay and client-request handler loops
to read/write the same msg-table and provides for delivering
the overall EMS-active-orders state to newly/re-connecting clients
with minimal processing; this table replaces what the `._ems_entries`
table from prior.
- add `Router.client_broadcast()` to send a msg to all currently
connected peers.
- a variety of msg handler block logic tweaks including more `case:`
blocks to be both flatter and improve explicitness:
- for the relay loop move all `Status` msg update and sending to
within each block instead of a fallthrough case plus hard-to-follow
state logic.
- add a specific case for unhandled backend status keys and just log
them.
- pop alerts from `._active` immediately once triggered.
- where possible mutate status msgs fields over instantiating new
ones.
- insert and expect `Order` instances in the dark clearing loop and
adjust `case:` blocks accordingly.
- tag `dark_open` and `triggered` statuses as sourced from the ems.
- drop all the `ChainMap` stuff for now; we're going to make our own
`Dialog` type for this purpose..
Order mode rework:
- always parse the `Status` msg and use match syntax cases with object
patterns, hackily assign the `.req` in many blocks to work around not
yet having proper on-the-wire decoding yet.
- make `.load_unknown_dialog_from_msg()` expect a `Status` with boxed
`.req: Order` as input.
- change `OrderDialog` -> `Dialog` in prep for a general purpose type
of the same name.
`ib` backend order loading support:
- do "closed" status detection inside the msg-relay loop instead
of expecting the ems to do this..
- add an attempt to cancel inactive orders by scheduling cancel
submissions continually (no idea if this works).
- add a status map to go from the 80s keys to our new set.
- deliver `Status` msgs with an embedded `Order` for existing live order
loading and make sure to try an get the source exchange info (instead
of SMART).
Paper engine ported to match:
- use new status keys in `BrokerdStatus` msgs
- use `match:` syntax in request handler loop
Ideally every client that connects to the ems can know its state
(immediately) meaning relay all the order dialogs that are currently
active. This adds full (hacky WIP) support to receive those dialog
(msgs) from the `open_ems()` startup values via the `.started()` msg
from `_emsd_main()`.
Further this adds support to the order mode chart-UI to display existing
(live) orders on the chart during startup. Details include,
- add a `OrderMode.load_unknown_dialog_from_msg()` for processing and
displaying a ``BrokerdStatus`` (for now) msg from the EMS that was not
previously created by the current ems client and registering and
displaying it on the chart.
- break out the ems msg processing into a new
`order_mode.process_trade_msg()` func so that it can be called on the
startup dialog-msg set as well as eventually used a more general low
level auto-strat API (eg. when we get to displaying auto-strat and
group trading automatically on an observing chart UI.
- hackyness around msg-processing for the dialogs delivery since we're
technically delivering `BrokerdStatus` msgs when the client-side
processing technically expects `Status` msgs.. we'll rectify this
soon!
Minimize calling `.data._shmarray.attach_shm_array()` as much as is
possible to avoid the crash from #332. This is the suggested hack from
issue #359.
Resolves https://github.com/pikers/piker/issues/359
Start a generic "position related" util mod and bring in the `Position`
type from the allocator , convert it to a `msgspec.Struct` and add
a `.lifo_update()` method. Implement a WIP pp parser from a trades
ledger and use the new lifo method to gather position entries.
Add `ChartPlotWidget._on_screen: bool` which allows detecting for the
first state where there is y-range-able flow data loaded and able to be
drawn. Check for this flag to be set in `.maxmin()` such that until the
historical data is loaded `.default_view()` will be called to ensure
that a blank view is never shown: race with the UI starting versus the
data layer loading flow graphics can have this outcome.
This was introduced in #302 but after thorough testing was clear to be
not working XD. Adjust the display loop to update the last graphics
segment on both the OHLC and vlm charts (as well as all deriving fsp
flows) whenever the uppx >= 1 and there is no current path append
taking place (since more datums are needed to span an x-pixel in view).
Summary of tweaks:
- move vlm chart update code to be at the end of the cycle routine and
have that block include the tests for a "interpolated last datum in
view" line.
- make `do_append: bool` compare with a floor of the uppx value (i.e.
appends should happen when we're just fractionally over a pixel of
x units).
- never update the "volume" chart.
Allows for optionally updating a "downsampled" graphics type which is
currently necessary in the `BarItems` -> `FlattenedOHLC` curve switching
case; we don't want to be needlessly redrawing the `Flow.graphics`
object (which will be an OHLC curve) when in flattened curve mode.
Further add a `only_last_uppx: bool` flag to `.draw_last()` to allow
forcing a "last uppx's worth of data max/min" style interpolating line
as needed.
When using m4, we downsample to the max and min of each
pixel-column's-worth of data thus preserving range / dispersion details
whilst not drawing more graphics then can be displayed by the available
amount of horizontal pixels.
Take and apply this exact same concept to the "last datum" graphics
elements for any `Flow` that is reported as being in a downsampled
state:
- take the xy output from the `Curve.draw_last_datum()`,
- slice out all data that fits in the last pixel's worth of x-range
by using the uppx,
- compute the highest and lowest value from that data,
- draw a singe line segment which spans this yrange thus creating
a simple vertical set of pixels which are "filled in" and show the
entire y-range for the most recent data "contained with that pixel".
Instead of using a bunch of internal logic to modify low level paint-able
elements create a `Curve` lineage that allows for graphics "style"
customization via a small set of public methods:
- `Curve.declare_paintables()` to allow setup of state/elements to be
drawn in later methods.
- `.sub_paint()` to allow painting additional elements along with the
defaults.
- `.sub_br()` to customize the `.boundingRect()` dimensions.
- `.draw_last_datum()` which is expected to produce the paintable
elements which will show the last datum in view.
Introduce the new sub-types and load as necessary in
`ChartPlotWidget.draw_curve()`:
- `FlattenedOHLC`
- `StepCurve`
Reimplement all `.draw_last()` routines as a `Curve` method
and call it the same way from `Flow.update_graphics()`
The basic logic is now this:
- when zooming out, uppx (units per pixel in x) can be >= 1
- if the uppx is `n` then the next pixel in view becomes occupied by
a new datum-x-coordinate-value when the diff between the last
datum step (since the last such update) is greater then the
current uppx -> `datums_diff >= n`
- if we're less then some constant uppx we just always update (because
it's not costly enough and we're not downsampling.
More or less this just avoids unnecessary real-time updates to flow
graphics until they would actually be noticeable via the next pixel
column on screen.
This was a bit of a nightmare to figure out but, it seems that the
coordinate caching system will really be a dick (like the nickname for
richard for you serious types) about leaving stale graphics if we don't
reset the cache on downsample full-redraw updates...Sooo, instead we do
this manual reset to avoid such artifacts and consequently (for now)
return a `reset: bool` flag in the return tuple from `Renderer.render()`
to indicate as such.
Some further shite:
- move the step mode `.draw_last()` equivalent graphics updates down
with the rest..
- drop some superfluous `should_redraw` logic from
`Renderer.render()` and compound it in the full path redraw block.
Adds a new pre-graphics data-format callback incremental update api to
our `Renderer`. `Renderer` instance can now overload these custom routines:
- `.update_xy()` a routine which accepts the latest [pre/a]pended data
sliced out from shm and returns it in a format suitable to store in
the optional `.[x/y]_data` arrays.
- `.allocate_xy()` which initially does the work of pre-allocating the
`.[x/y]_data` arrays based on the source shm sizing such that new
data can be filled in (to memory).
- `._xy_[first/last]: int` attrs to track index diffs between src shm
and the xy format data updates.
Implement the step curve data format with 3 super simple routines:
- `.allocate_xy()` -> `._pathops.to_step_format()`
- `.update_xy()` -> `._flows.update_step_xy()`
- `.format_xy()` -> `._flows.step_to_xy()`
Further, adjust `._pathops.gen_ohlc_qpath()` to adhere to the new
call signature.
We're doing this in `Flow.update_graphics()` atm and probably are going
to in general want custom graphics objects for all the diff curve / path
types. The new flows work seems to fix the bounding rect width calcs to
not require the ad-hoc extra `+ 1` in the step mode case; before it was
always a bit hacky anyway. This also tries to add a more correct
bounding rect adjustment for the `._last_line` segment.
Finally this gets us much closer to a generic incremental update system
for graphics wherein the input array diffing, pre-graphical format data
processing, downsampler activation and incremental update and storage of
any of these data flow stages can be managed in one modular sub-system
:surfer_boi:.
Dirty deatz:
- reorg and move all path logic into `Renderer.render()` and have it
take in pretty much the same flags as the old
`FastAppendCurve.update_from_array()` and instead storing all update
state vars (even copies of the downsampler related ones) on the
renderer instance:
- new state vars: `._last_uppx, ._in_ds, ._vr, ._avr`
- `.render()` input bools: `new_sample_rate, should_redraw,
should_ds, showing_src_data`
- add a hack-around for passing in incremental update data (for now)
via a `input_data: tuple` of numpy arrays
- a default `uppx: float = 1`
- add new render interface attrs:
- `.format_xy()` which takes in the source data array and produces out
x, y arrays (and maybe a `connect` array) that can be passed to
`.draw_path()` (the default for this is just to slice out the index
and `array_key: str` columns from the input struct array),
- `.draw_path()` which takes in the x, y, connect arrays and generates
a `QPainterPath`
- `.fast_path`, for "appendable" updates like there was on the fast
append curve
- move redraw (aka `.clear()` calls) into `.draw_path()` and trigger
via `redraw: bool` flag.
- our graphics objects no longer set their own `.path` state, it's done
by the `Flow.update_graphics()` method using output from
`Renderer.render()` (and it's state if necessary)
A bit hacky to get all graphics types working but this is hopefully the
first step toward moving all the generic update logic into `Renderer`
types which can be themselves managed more compactly and cached per
uppx-m4 level.
Yet another path ops routine which converts a 1d array into a data
format suitable for rendering a "step curve" graphics path (aka a "bar
graph" but implemented as a continuous line).
Also, factor the `BarItems` rendering logic (which determines whether to
render the literal bars lines or a downsampled curve) into a routine
`render_baritems()` until we figure out the right abstraction layer for
it.
Starts a module for grouping together all our `QPainterpath` related
generation and data format operations for creation of fast curve
graphics. To start, drops `FastAppendCurve.downsample()` and moves
it to a new `._pathops.xy_downsample()`.
Mostly just dropping old commented code for "step mode" format
generation. Always slice the tail part of the input data and move to the
new `ms_threshold` in the `pg` profiler'
Relates to the bug discovered in #310, this should avoid out-of-order
msgs which do not have a `.reqid` set to be error logged to console.
Further, add `pformat()` to kraken logging of ems msging.
Since downsampling with the more correct version of m4 (uppx driven
windows sizing) is super fast now we don't need to avoid downsampling
on low uppx values. Further all graphics objects now support in-view
slicing so make sure to use it on interaction updates. Pass in the view
profiler to update method calls for more detailed measuring.
Even moar,
- Add a manual call to `.maybe_downsample_graphics()` inside the mouse
wheel event handler since it seems that sometimes trailing events get
lost from the `.sigRangeChangedManually` signal which can result in
"non-downsampled-enough" graphics on chart given the scroll amount;
this manual call seems to entirely fix this?
- drop "max zoom" guard since internals now support (near) infinite
scroll out to graphics becoming a single pixel column line XD
- add back in commented xrange signal connect code for easy testing to
verify against range updates not happening without it
This took longer then i care to admit XD but it definitely adds a huge
speedup and with only a few outstanding correctness bugs:
- panning from left to right causes strange trailing artifacts in the
flows fsp (vlm) sub-plot but only when some data is off-screen on the
left but doesn't appear to be an issue if we keep the `._set_yrange()`
handler hooked up to the `.sigXRangeChanged` signal (but we aren't
going to because this makes panning way slower). i've got a feeling
this is a bug todo with the device coordinate cache stuff and we may
need to report to Qt core?
- factoring out the step curve logic from
`FastAppendCurve.update_from_array()` (un)fortunately required some
logic branch uncoupling but also meant we needed special input controls
to avoid things like redraws and curve appends for special cases,
this will hopefully all be better rectified in code when the core of
this method is moved into a renderer type/implementation.
- the `tina_vwap` fsp curve now somehow causes hangs when doing erratic
scrolling on downsampled graphics data. i have no idea why or how but
disabling it makes the issue go away (ui will literally just freeze
and gobble CPU on a `.paint()` call until you ctrl-c the hell out of
it). my guess is that something in the logic for standard line curves
and appends on large data sets is the issue?
Code related changes/hacks:
- drop use of `step_path_arrays_from_1d()`, it was always a bit hacky
(being based on `pyqtgraph` internals) and was generally hard to
understand since it returns 1d data instead of the more expected (N,2)
array of "step levels"; instead this is now implemented (uglily) in
the `Flow.update_graphics()` block for step curves (which will
obviously get cleaned up and factored elsewhere).
- add a bunch of new flags to the update method on the fast append
curve: `draw_last: bool`, `slice_to_head: int`, `do_append: bool`,
`should_redraw: bool` which are all controls to aid with previously
mentioned issues specific to getting step curve updates working
correctly.
- add a ton of commented tinkering related code (that we may end up
using) to both the flow and append curve methods that was written as
part of the effort to get this all working.
- implement all step curve updating inline in `Flow.update_graphics()`
including prepend and append logic for pre-graphics incremental step
data maintenance and in-view slicing as well as "last step" graphics
updating.
Obviously clean up commits coming stat B)
Since we have in-view style rendering working for all curve types
(finally) we can avoid the guard for low uppx levels and without losing
interaction speed. Further don't delay the profiler so that the nested
method calls correctly report upward - which wasn't working likely due
to some kinda GC collection related issue.
More or less this improves update latency like mad. Only draw data in
view and avoid full path regen as much as possible within a given
(down)sampling setting. We now support append path updates with in-view
data and the *SPECIAL CAVEAT* is that we avoid redrawing the whole curve
**only when** we calc an `append_length <= 1` **even if the view range
changed**. XXX: this should change in the future probably such that the
caller graphics update code can pass a flag which says whether or not to
do a full redraw based on it knowing where it's an interaction based
view-range change or a flow update change which doesn't require a full
path re-render.
After much effort (and exhaustion) but failure to get a view into our
`numpy` OHLC struct-array, this instead allocates an in-thread-memory
array which is updated with flattened data every flow update cycle.
I need to report what I think is a bug to `numpy` core about the whole
view thing not working but, more or less this gets the same behaviour
and minimizes work to flatten the sampled data for line-graphics drawing
thus improving refresh latency when drawing large downsampled curves.
Update the OHLC ds curve with view aware data sliced out from the
pre-allocated and incrementally updated data (we had to add a last index
var `._iflat` to track appends - this should be moved into a renderer
eventually?).
This begins the removal of data processing / analysis methods from the
chart widget and instead moving them to our new `Flow` API (in the new
module introduce here) and delegating the old chart methods to the
respective internal flow. Most importantly is no longer storing the
"last read" of an array from shm in an internal chart table (was
`._arrays`) and instead the `ShmArray` instance is passed as input and
stored in the `Flow` instance. This greatly simplifies lookup logic such
that the display loop now doesn't have to worry about reading shm, it
can be done by internal graphics logic as desired. Generally speaking,
all previous `._arrays`/`._graphics` lookups are now delegated to the
entries in the chart's `._flows` table.
The new `Flow` methods are generally better factored and provide more
detailed output regarding data-stream <-> graphics inter-relations for
the future purpose of allowing much more efficient update calls in the
display loop as well as supporting low latency interaction UX.
The concept here is that we're introducing an intermediary layer that
ties together graphics and real-time data flows such that widget code is
oriented around plot layout and the flow apis are oriented around
real-time low latency updates and providing an efficient high level
metric layer for the UX.
The summary api transition is something like:
- `update_graphics_from_array()` -> `.update_graphics_from_flow()`
- `.bars_range()` -> `Flow.datums_range()`
- `.bars_range()` -> `Flow.datums_range()`
The most important changes include:
- iterating the new `Flow` type and updating graphics
- adding detailed profiling
- increasing the min uppx before graphics updates are throttled
- including the L1 spread in y-range calcs so that you never have the
bid/ask go "out of view"..
- pass around `Flow`s instead of shms
- drop all the old prototyped downsampling code
If manually managing an overlay you'll likely call `.overlay_plotitem()`
and then a plotting method so we need to accept a plot item input so
that the chart's pi doesn't get assigned incorrectly in the `Flow` entry
(though it is by default if no input is provided).
More,
- add a `Flow.graphics` field and set it to the `pg.GraphicsObject`.
- make `Flow.maxmin()` return `None` in the "can't calculate" cases.
- set shm refs on `Flow` entries.
- don't run a graphics cycle on 'update' msgs from the engine
if the containing chart is hidden.
- drop `volume` from flows map and disable auto-yranging
once $vlm comes up.
Allows for removing resize callbacks for a flow/overlay that you wish to
remove from view (eg. unit volume after dollar volume is up) and thus
less general interaction callback overhead for any plot you don't wish
to show or resize.
Further,
- drop the `autoscale_linked_plots` block for now since with
multi-view-box overlays each register their own vb resize slots
- pull the graphics object from the chart's `Flow` map inside
`.maybe_downsample_graphics()`
This new type wraps a shm data flow and will eventually include things
like incremental path-graphics updates and serialization + bg downsampling
techniques. The main immediate motivation was to get a cached y-range max/min
calc going since profiling revealed the `numpy` equivalents were
actually quite slow as the data set grows large. Likely we can use all
this to drive a streaming mx/mn routine that's always launched as part
of each on-host flow.
This is our official foray into use of `msgspec.Struct` B) and I have to
say, pretty impressed; we'll likely completely ditch `pydantic` from
here on out.
We don't need update graphics on every x-range change since that's what
the display loop does. Instead, only on manual changes do we make manual
calls into `.update_graphics_from_array()` and be sure to iterate all
linked subplots and all their embedded graphics.
The pg profiler seems to have trouble with early `return`s in function
calls (likely muckery with the GC/`.__delete__()`) so let's just try
to avoid it for now until we either fix it (probably by implementing as
a ctx mngr) or use diff one.
Ugh, turns out the wacky `ChartView.maxmin` callback stuff we did (for
determining y-range sizings) currently requires that the volume array
has a "bars in view" result.. so let's make that keep working without
rendering the graphics for the curve (since we're disabling them once
$vlm comes up).
As with the `BarItems` graphics, this makes it possible to pass in a "in
view" range of array data that can be *only* rendered improving
performance for large(r) data sets. All the other normal behaviour is
kept (i.e a persistent, (pre/ap)pendable path can still be maintained)
if a ``view_range`` is not provided.
Further updates,
- drop the `.should_ds_or_redraw()` and `.maybe_downsample()` predicates
instead moving all that logic inside `.update_from_array()`.
- disable the "cache flipping", which doesn't seem to be needed to avoid
artifacts any more?
- handle all redraw/dowsampling logic in `.update_from_array()`.
- even more profiling.
- drop path `.reserve()` stuff until we better figure out how it's
supposed to work.
Drop all the logic originally in `.update_ds_line()` which is now done
internal to our `FastAppendCurve`. Add incremental update of the
flattened OHLC -> line curve (unfortunately using `np.concatenate()` for
the moment) and maintain a new `._ds_line_xy` arrays tuple which keeps
the internal state. Add `.maybe_downsample()` as per the new interaction
update method requirement. Draft out some fast path curve stuff like in
our line graphic. Short-circuit bars path updates when we downsample to
line. Oh, and add a ton more profiling in prep for getting
all this stuff faf.
Build out an interface that makes it super easy to downsample curves
using the m4 algorithm while keeping our incremental `QPainterPath`
update feature. A lot of hard work and tinkering went into getting this
working all in-thread correctly and there are quite a few details..
New interface methods:
- `.x_uppx()` which returns the x-axis "view units per pixel"
- `.px_width()` which returns the total (rounded) x-axis pixels spanned
by the curve in view.
- `.should_ds_or_redraw()` a predicate which checks internal state to
see if either downsampling of the curve should take place, or the curve
should have all downsampling removed and be redrawn with source array
data.
- `.downsample()` the actual ds processing routine which delegates into
the m4 algo impl.
- `.maybe_downsample()` a simple update method which can be called by
the view box when the user changes the zoom level.
Implementation details/changes:
- make `.update_from_array()` check for downsample (or revert to source
aka de-downsample) conditions exist and then downsample and re-draw
path graphics accordingly.
- in order to even further speed up path appends (since our main
bottleneck is measured to be `QPainter.drawPath()` calls with large
paths which are frequently updates), add a secondary path `.fast_path`
which is the path that is real-time updates by incremental appends and
which is painted separately for speed in `.pain()`.
- drop all the `QPolyLine` stuff since it was tested to be much slower
in general and especially so for append-updates.
- stop disabling the cache settings on updates since it doesn't seem to
be required any more?
- more move toward deprecating and removing all lingering interface
requirements from `pg.PlotCurveItem` (like `.xData`/`.yData`).
- adjust `.paint()` and `.boundingRect()` to compensate for the new
`.fast_path`
- add a butt-load of profiling B)
Pretty sure this was most of the cause of the stale (more downsampled)
curves showing when zooming in and out from bars mode quickly. All this
stuff needs to get factored out into a new abstraction anyway, but
i think this get's mostly correct functionality.
Only draw new ds curve on uppx steps >= 4 and stop adding/removing
graphics objects from the scene; doesn't seem to speed anything up
afaict. Add better reporting of ds scale changes.
Only if the uppx increases by more then 2 we redraw the entire line
otherwise just ds with previous params and update the current curve.
This *should* avoid strange lower sample rate artefacts from showing on
updates.
Summary:
- stash both uppx and px width in `._dsi` (downsample info)
- use the new `ohlc_to_m4_line()` flags
- add notes about using `.reserve()` and friends
- always delete last `._array` ref prior to line updates
In an effort to try and make `QPainterPath.reserve()` work, add internal
logic to use the same object without de-allocating memory from
a previous path write/creation.
Note this required the addition of a `._redraw` flag (to be used in
`.clear()` and a small patch to `pyqtgraph.functions.arrayToQPath` to
allow passing in an existing path (thus reusing the same underlying mem
alloc) which will likely be first pushed to our fork.
We were previously ad-hoc scaling up the px count/width to get more
detail at lower uppx values. Add a log scaling sigmoid that range scales
between 1 < px_width < 16.
Add in a flag to use the mxmn OH tracer in `ohlc_flatten()` if desired.
Helpers to quickly convert ohlc struct-array sequences into lines
for consumption by the m4 downsampler. Strip trailing zero entries
from the `ds_m4()` output if found (avoids lines back to origin).
This makes the `'r'` hotkey snap the last bar to the middle of the pp
line arrow marker no matter the zoom level. Now we also boot with
approximately the most number of x units on screen that keep the bars
graphics drawn in full (just before downsampling to a line).
Moved some internals around to get this all in place,
- drop `_anchors.marker_right_points()` and move it to a chart method.
- change `.pre_l1_x()` -> `.pre_l1_xs()` and just have it return the
two view-mapped x values from the former method.
Instead of using a guess about how many x-indexes to reset the last
datum in-view to, calculate and shift the latest index such that it's
just before any L1 spread labels on the y-axis. This makes the view
placement "widget aware" and gives a much more cross-display UX.
Summary:
- add `ChartPlotWidget.pre_l1_x()` which returns a `tuple` of
x view-coord points for the absolute x-pos and length of any L1
line/labels
- make `.default_view()` only shift to see the xlast just outside
the l1 but keep whatever view range xfirst as the first datum in view
- drop `LevelLine.right_point()` since this is now just a
`.pre_l1_x()` call and can be retrieved from the line's internal chart
ref
- drop `._style.bars_from/to_..` vars since we aren't using hard coded
offsets any more
`ChartPlotWidget.curve_width_pxs()` now can be used to get the total
horizontal (x) pixels on screen that are occupied by the current curve
graphics for a given chart. This will be used for downsampling large
data sets to the pixel domain using M4.
Probably the best place to root the profiler since we can get a better
top down view of bottlenecks in the graphics stack.
More,
- add in draft M4 downsampling code (commented) after getting it mostly
working; next step is to move this processing into an FSP subactor.
- always update the vlm chart last y-axis sticky
- set call `.default_view()` just before inf sleep on startup
Obviously determining the x-range from indices was wrong and was the
reason for the incorrect (downsampled) output size XD. Instead correctly
determine the x range and start value from the *values of* the input
x-array. Pretty sure this makes the implementation nearly production
ready.
Relates to #109
All the refs are in the comments and original sample code from infinite
has been reworked to expect the input x/y arrays to already be sliced
(though we can later support passing in the start-end indexes if
desired).
The new routines are `ds_m4()` the python top level API and `_m4()` the
fast `numba` implementation.
- the chart's uppx (units-per-pixel) is > 4 (i.e. zoomed out a lot)
- don't shift the chart (to keep the most recent step in view) if the
last datum isn't in view (aka the user is probably looking at history)
When a bars graphic is zoomed out enough you get a high uppx, datum
units-per-pixel, and there is no point in drawing the 6-lines in each
bar element-graphic if you can't see them on the screen/display device.
Instead here we offer converting to a `FastAppendCurve` which traces
the high-low outline and instead display that when it's impossible to see the
details of bars - approximately when the uppx >= 2.
There is also some draft-commented code in here for downsampling the
outlines as zoom level increases but it's not fully working and should
likely be factored out into a higher level api anyway.
In effort to start getting some graphics speedups as detailed in #109,
this adds a `FastAppendCurve`to every `BarItems` as a `._ds_line` which
is only displayed (instead of the normal mult-line bars curve) when the
"width" of a bar is indistinguishable on screen from a line -> so once
the view coordinates map to > 2 pixels on the display device.
`BarItems.maybe_paint_line()` takes care of this scaling detection logic and is
called by the associated view's `.sigXRangeChanged` signal handler.
The graphics update loop is much easier to grok when all the UI
components which potentially need to be updated on a cycle are arranged
together in a high-level composite namespace, thus this new
`DisplayState` addition. Create and set this state on each
`LinkedSplits` chart set and add a new method `.graphics_cycle()` which
let's a caller trigger a graphics loop update manually. Use this method
in the fsp graphics manager such that a chain can update new history
output even if there is no real-time feed driving the display loop (eg.
when a market is "closed").
Use fqsn as input to the client-side EMS apis but strip broker-name
stuff before generating and sending `Brokerd*` msgs to each backend for
live order requests (since it's weird for a backend to expect it's own
name, though maybe that could be a sanity check?).
Summary of fqsn use vs. broker native keys:
- client side pps, order requests and general UX for order management
use an fqsn for tracking
- brokerd side order dialogs use the broker-specific symbol which is
usually nearly the same key minus the broker name
- internal dark book and quote feed lookups use the fqsn where possible
Since moving to a "god loop" for graphics, we don't really need to have
a dedicated task for updating graphics on new sample increments. The
only UX difference will be that curves won't be updated until an actual new
rt-quote-event triggers the graphics loop -> so we'll have the chart
"jump" to a new position and new curve segments generated only when new
data arrives. This is imo fine since it's just less "idle" updates
where the chart would sit printing the same (last) value every step.
Instead only update the view increment if a new index is detected by
reading shm.
If we ever want this dedicated task update again this commit can be
easily reverted B)
You can get a weird "last line segment" artifact if *only* that segment
is drawn and the cache is enabled, so just disable unless in step mode
at startup and re-flash as normal when new path data is appended. Add
a `.disable_cache()` method for the multi-use in the update method. Use
line style on the `._last_line: QLineF` segment as well.
Enables retrieving all "named axes" on a particular "side" of the
overlayed plot items. This is useful for calculating how much space
needs to be allocated for the axes before the view box area starts.
Instead of referencing the remote processing funcs by a `str` name start
embracing the new `@fsp`/`Fsp` API such that wrapped processing
functions are first class APIs.
Summary of the changeset:
- move and load the fsp built-in set in the new `.fsp._api` module
- handle processors ("fsps") which want to yield multiple keyed-values
(interleaved in time) by expecting both history that is keyed and
assigned to the appropriate struct-array field, *and* real-time
`yield`ed value in tuples of the form `tuple[str, float]` such that
any one (async) processing function can deliver multiple outputs from
the same base calculation.
- drop `maybe_mk_fsp_shm()` from UI module
- expect and manage `Fsp` instances (`@fsp` decorated funcs) throughout
the UI code, particularly the `FspAdmin` layer.
Since more curves costs more processing and since the vlm and $vlm
curves are normally very close to the same (graphically) we hide the
unit volume curve once the dollar volume is up (after the fsp daemon-task is
spawned) and just expect the user to understand the diff in axes units.
Also, use the new `title=` api to `.overlay_plotitem()`.
Use our internal `Label` with much better dpi based sizing of text and
placement below the y-axis ticks area for more minimalism and less
clutter.
Play around with `lru_cache` on axis label bounding rects and for now
just hack sizing by subtracting half the text height (not sure why) from
the width to avoid over-extension / overlap with any adjacent axis.
Allow passing in a formatter function for processing tick values on an
axis. This makes it easy to for example, `piker.calc.humanize()` dollar
volume on a subchart.
Factor `set_min_tick()` into the `PriceAxis` since it's not used on any
x-axis data thus far.
Adds `FspAdmin.open_fsp_chart()` which allows adding a real time graphics
display of an fsp's output with different options for where (which chart
or make a new one) to place it.
Further,
- change some method naming, namely the other fsp engine task methods to
`.open_chain()` and `.start_engine_task()`.
- make `run_fsp_ui()` a lone task function for now with the default
config parsing and chart setup logic (and it still includes a buncha
commented out stuff for doing graphics update which is now done in the
main loop to avoid task switching overhead).
- move all vlm related fsp config entries into the `open_vlm_displays()`
task for dedicated setup with the fsp admin api such as special
auto-yrange handling and graph overlays.
- `start_fsp_displays()` is now just a small loop through config entries
with synced startup status messages.
For wtv cucked reason all the viewbox/scene coordinate calcs do **not**
include a left axis in the geo (likely because it's a hacked in widget
+ layout thing managed by `PlotItem`). Detect if there's a left axis and
if so use it in the label placement scene coords calc. ToDo: probably
make this a non-move calc and only recompute any time the axis changes.
Other:
- rate limit mouse events down to the 60 (ish) Hz for now
- change one last lingering `'ohlc'` array lookup
- fix `.mouseMoved()` "event" type annot
This is a huge commit which moves a bunch of code around in order to
simplify some of our UI modules as well as support our first official
mult-axis chart: overlaid volume and "dollar volume". A good deal of
this change set is to make startup fast such that volume data which is
often shipped alongside OHLC history is loaded and shown asap and FSPs
are loaded in an actor cluster with their graphics overlayed
concurrently as each responsible worker generates plottable output.
For everything to work this commit requires use of a draft `pyqtgraph`
PR: https://github.com/pyqtgraph/pyqtgraph/pull/2162
Change summary:
- move remaining FSP actor cluster helpers into `.ui._fsp` mod as well
as fsp specific UI managers (`maybe_open_vlm_display()`,
`start_fsp_displays()`).
- add an `FspAdmin` API for starting fsp chains on the cluster
concurrently allowing for future work toward reload/unloading.
- bring FSP config dict into `start_fsp_displays()` and `.started()`-deliver
both the fsp admin and any volume chart back up to the calling display
loop code.
ToDo:
- repair `ChartView` click-drag interactions
- auto-range on $ vlm needs to use `ChartPlotWidget._set_yrange()`
- a lot better styling for the $_vlm overlay XD
As part of factoring `._set_yrange()` into the lower level view box,
move the y-range calculations into a new method. These calcs should
eventually be completely separate (as they are for the real-time version
in the graphics display update loop) and likely part of some kind of
graphics-related lower level management API. Draft such an API as an
`ArrayScene` (commented for now) as a sketch toward factoring array
tracking **out of** the chart widget. Drop the `'ohlc'` array name and
instead always use whatever `.name` was assigned to the chart widget
to lookup its "main" / source data array for now.
Enable auto-yranging on overlayed plotitems by enabling on its viewbox
and, for now, assign an ad-hoc `._maxmin()` since the widget version
from this commit has no easy way to know which internal array to use. If
an FSP (`dolla_vlm` in this case) is overlayed on an existing chart
without also having a full widget (which it doesn't in this case since
we're using an overlayed `PlotItem` instead of a full `ChartPlotWidget`)
we need some way to define the `.maxmin()` for the overlayed
data/graphics. This likely means the `.maxmin()` will eventually get
factored into wtv lowlevel `ArrayScene` API mentioned above.
Calculations for auto-yaxis ranging are both signalled and drawn by our
`ViewBox` so we might as well factor this handler down from the chart
widget into the view type. This makes it much easier (and clearer) that
`PlotItem` and other lower level overlayed `GraphicsObject`s can utilize
*size-to-data* style view modes easily without widget-level coupling.
Further changes,
- support a `._maxmin()` internal callable (temporarily) for allowing
a viewed graphics object to define it's own y-range max/min calc.
- add `._static_range` var (though usage hasn't been moved from the
chart plot widget yet
- drop y-axis click-drag zoom instead reverting back to default viewbox
behaviour with wheel-zoom and click-drag-pan on the axis.
This brings in the WIP components developed as part of
https://github.com/pyqtgraph/pyqtgraph/pull/2162.
Most of the history can be understood from that issue and effort but the
TL;DR is,
- add an event handler wrapper system which can be used to
wrap `ViewBox` methods such that multiple views can be overlayed and
a single event stream broadcast from one "main" view to others which
are overlaid with it.
- add in 2 relay `Signal` attrs to our `ViewBox` subtype (`Chartview`)
to accomplish per event `MouseEvent.emit()` style broadcasting to
multiple (sub-)views.
- Add a `PlotItemOverlay` api which does all the work of overlaying the
actual chart graphics and arranging multiple-axes without collision as
well as tying together all the event/signalling so that only a single
"focussed" view relays to all overlays.
Each `pyqtgraph.PlotItem` uses a `QGraphicsGridLayout` to place its view
box, axes and titles in the traditional graph format. With multiple
overlayed charts we need those axes to not collide with one another and
further allow for an "order" specified by the user. We accomplish this
by adding `QGraphicsLinearLayout`s for each axis "side": `{'left',
'right', 'top', 'bottom'}` such that plot axes can be inserted and moved
easily without having to constantly re-stack/order a grid layout (which
does not have a linked-list style API).
The new type is called `ComposedGridLayout` for now and offers a basic
list-like API with `.insert()`, `.append()`, and eventually a dict-style
`.pop()`. We probably want to also eventually offer a `.focus()` to
allow user switching of *which* main graphics object (aka chart) is "in
use".
This syncs with a dev branch in our `pyqtgraph` fork:
https://github.com/pyqtgraph/pyqtgraph/pull/2162
The main idea is to get mult-yaxis display fully functional with
multiple view boxes running in a "relay mode" where some focussed view
relays signals to overlaid views which may have independent axes. This
preps us for both displaying independent codomain-set FSP output as well
as so called "aggregate" feeds of multiple fins underlyings on the same
chart (eg. options and futures over top of ETFs and underlying stocks).
The eventual desired UX is to support fast switching of instruments for
order mode trading without requiring entirely separate charts as well as
simple real-time anal of associated instruments.
The first effort here is to display vlm and $_vlm alongside each other
as a built-in FSP subchart.
We can instead use the god widget's nursery to schedule all the feed
pause/resume requests and be even more concurrent during a view (of
symbols) switch.
Use `tractor.trionics.gather_contexts()` to start up the fsp and volume
chart-displays (for an additional conc speedup). Drop `dolla_vlm` again for
now until we figure out how we can display it *and* vlm on the same
sub-chart? It would be nice to avoid having to spawn an fsp process
before showing the volume curve.
Call the resize method only after all FSP subcharts have rendered
such that the main OHLC chart's final width is read.
Further tweaks:
- drop rsi by default
- drop the stream drain stuff
- fix failed-to-read shm logging
This fixes a weird re-render bug/slowdown/artifact that was introduced
with the order mode sidepane work. Prior to the sidepane addition, chart
switching was immediate with zero noticeable widget rendering steps.
The slow down was caused by 2 things:
- not yielding back to the Qt loop asap after re-showing/focussing
a linked split chart that was already in memory.
- pausing/resuming feeds only after a Qt loop render cycle has
completed.
This now restores the near zero latency UX.
There was a lingering issue where the fsp daemon would sync its shm
array with the source data and we'd set the start/end indices to the
same value. Under some races a reader would then read an empty `.array`
which it wasn't expecting. This fixes that as well as tidies up the
`ShmArray.push()` logic and adds a temporary check in `.array` for zero
length if the array hasn't been written yet.
We can now start removing read array length checks in consumer code
and hopefully no more races will show up.
Revert to old shm "last" meaning last row
Use a fixed worker count and don't respawn for every chart, instead
opting for a round-robin to tasks in a cluster and (for now) hoping for
the best in terms of trio scheduling, though we should obviously route
via symbol-locality next. This is currently a boon for chart spawning
startup times since actor creation is done AOT.
Additionally,
- use `zero_on_step` for dollar volume
- drop rsi on startup (again)
- add dollar volume (via fsp) along side unit volume
- litter more profiling to fsp chart startup sequence
- pre-define tick type classes for update loop
We are already packing framed ticks in extended lists from
the `.data._sampling.uniform_rate_send()` task so the natural solution
to avoid needless graphics cycles for HFT-ish feeds (like binance) is
to unpack those frames and for most cases only update graphics with the
"latest" data per loop iteration. Unpacking in this way also lessens
nested-iterations per tick type.
Btw, this also effectively solves all remaining issues of fast tick
feeds over-triggering the graphics loop renders as long as the original
quote stream is throttled appropriately, usually to the local display
rate.
Relates to #183, #192
Dirty deats:
- drop all per-tick rate checks, they were always somewhat pointless
when iterating a frame of ticks per render cycle XD.
- unpack tick frame into ticks per frame type, and last of each type;
the lasts are used to update each part of the UI/graphics by class.
- only skip the label update if we can't retrieve the last from from a
graphics source array; it seems `chart.update_curve_from_array()`
already does a `len` check internally.
- add some draft commented code for tick type classes and a possible
wire framed tick data structure.
- move `chart_maxmin()` range computer to module level, bind a chart to
it with a `partial.`
- only check rate limits in main quote loop thus reporting actual
overages
- add in commented logic for only updating the "last" cleared price from
the most recent framed value if we want to eventually (right now seems
like this is only relevant to ib and it's dark trades: `utrade`).
- rename `_clear_throttle_rate` -> `_quote_throttle_rate`, drop
`_book_throttle_rate`.
This is in prep toward doing fsp graphics updates from the main quotes
update loop (where OHLC and volume are done). Updating fsp output from
that task should, for the majority of cases, be fine presuming the
processing is derived from the quote stream as a source. Further,
calling an update function on each fsp subplot/overlay is of course
faster then a full task switch - which is how it currently works with
a separate stream for every fsp output. This also will let us delay
adding full `Feed` support around fsp streams for the moment while still
getting quote throttling dictated by the quote stream.
Going forward, We can still support a separate task/fsp stream for
updates as needed (ex. some kind of fast external data source that isn't
synced with price data) but it should be enabled as needed required by
the user.
The major change is moving the fsp "daemon" (more like wanna-be fspd)
endpoint to use the newer `tractor.Portal.open_context()` and
bi-directional streaming api.
There's a few other things in here too:
- make a helper for allocating single colume fsp shm arrays
- rename some some fsp related functions to be more explicit on their
purposes
