Wow, turns out tick framing was totally borked since we weren't framing
on "greater then throttle period long waits" XD
This moves all the framing logic into a common func and calls it in
every case:
- every (normal) "pre throttle period expires" quote receive
- each "no new quote before throttle period expires" (slow case)
- each "no clearing tick yet received" / only burst on clears case
Add some (untested) data slicing util methods for mapping time ranges to
source data indices:
- `.get_index()` which maps a single input epoch time to an equiv array
(int) index.
- add `slice_from_time()` which returns a view of the shm data from an
input epoch range presuming the underlying struct array contains
a `'time'` field with epoch stamps.
- `.view_data()` which slices out the "in view" data according to the
current state of the passed in `pg.PlotItem`'s view box.
This has been an outstanding idea for a while and changes the framing
format of tick events into a `dict[str, list[dict]]` wherein for each
tick "type" (eg. 'bid', 'ask', 'trade', 'asize'..etc) we create an FIFO
ordered `list` of events (data) and then pack this table into each
(throttled) send. This gives an additional implied downsample reduction
(in terms of iteration on the consumer side) from `N` tick-events to
a (max) `T` tick-types presuming the rx side only needs the latest tick
event.
Drop the `types: set` and adjust clearing event test to use the new
`ticks_by_type` map's keys.
Instead of uniformly distributing the msg send rate for a given
aggregate subscription, choose to be more bursty around clearing ticks
so as to avoid saturating the consumer with L1 book updates and vs.
delivering real trade data as-fast-as-possible.
Presuming the consumer is in the "UI land of slow" (eg. modern display
frame rates) such an approach serves more useful for seeing "material
changes" in the market as-bursty-as-possible (i.e. more short lived fast
changes in last clearing price vs. many slower changes in the bid-ask
spread queues). Such an approach also lends better to multi-feed
overlays which in aggregate tend to scale linearly with the number of
feeds/overlays; centralization of bursty arrival rates allows for
a higher overall throttle rate if used cleverly with framing.
Seems that by default their history indexing rounds down/back to the
previous time step, so make sure we add a minute inside `Client.bars()`
when the `end_dt=None`, indicating "get the latest bar". Add
a breakpoint block that should trigger whenever the latest bar vs. the
latest epoch time is mismatched; we'll remove this after some testing
verifying the history bars issue is resolved.
Further this drops the legacy `backfill_bars()` endpoint which has been
deprecated and unused for a while.
Likely pertains to helping with stuff in issues #345 and #373 and just
generally is handy to have when processing ledgers / clearing event
tables.
Adds the following helper methods:
- `iter_by_dt()` to iter-sort an arbitrary `Transaction`-like table of
clear entries.
- `Position.iter_clears()` as a convenience wrapper for the above.
Trying to send a message in the `NoBsWs.fixture()` exit when the ws is
not currently disconnected causes a double `._stack.close()` call which
will corrupt `trio`'s coro stack. Instead only do the unsub if we detect
the ws is still up.
Also drops the legacy `backfill_bars()` module endpoint.
Fixes#437

Instead of requiring any `-b` try to import all built-in broker backend
python modules by default and only load those detected from the input symbol
list's fqsn values. In other words the `piker chart` cmd can be run sin
`-b` now and that flag is only required if you only want to load
a subset of the built-ins or are trying to load a specific
not-yet-builtin backend.
