More or less a revamp (and possibly first draft for something similar in
`tractor` core) which ensures all actor trees attempt to discover the
`pikerd` registry actor.
Implementation improvements include:
- new `Registry` singleton which houses the `pikerd` discovery
socket-address `Registry.addr` + a `open_registry()` manager which
provides bootstrapped actor-local access.
- refine `open_piker_runtime()` to do the work of opening a root actor
and call the new `open_registry()` depending on whether a runtime has
yet been bootstrapped.
- rejig `[maybe_]open_pikerd()` in terms of the above.
Allows running simultaneous data feed services on the same (linux) host
by avoiding file-name collisions instead keying shm buffer sets by the
given `brokerd` instance. This allows, for example, either multiple dev
versions of the data layer to run side-by-side or for the test suite to
be seamlessly run alongside a production instance.
Previously we were relying on implicit actor termination in
`maybe_spawn_daemon()` but really on `pikerd` teardown we should be sure
to tear down not only all service tasks in each actor but also the actor
runtimes. This adjusts `Services.cancel_service()` to only cancel the
service task scope and wait on the `complete` event and reworks the
`open_context_in_task()` inner closure body to,
- always cancel the service actor at exit.
- not call `.cancel_service()` (potentially causing recursion issues on
cancellation).
- allocate a `complete: trio.Event` to signal full task + actor termination.
- pop the service task from the `.service_tasks` registry.
Further, add a `maybe_set_global_registry_sockaddr()` helper-cm to do
the work of checking whether a registry socket needs-to/has-been set
and use it for discovery calls to the `pikerd` service tree.
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.
Always use `open_sample_stream()` to register fast and slow quote feed
buffers and get a sampler stream which we use to trigger
`Sampler.broadcast_all()` calls on the service side after backfill
events.
Now spawned under the `pikerd` tree as a singleton-daemon-actor we offer
a slew of new routines in support of this micro-service:
- `maybe_open_samplerd()` and `spawn_samplerd()` which provide the
`._daemon.Services` integration to conduct service spawning.
- `open_sample_stream()` which is a client-side endpoint which does all
the work of (lazily) starting the `samplerd` service (if dne) and
registers shm buffers for update as well as connect a sample-index
stream for iterator by the caller.
- `register_with_sampler()` which is the `samplerd`-side service task
endpoint implementing all the shm buffer and index-stream registry
details as well as logic to ensure a lone service task runs
`Services.increment_ohlc_buffer()`; it increments at the shortest period
registered which, for now, is the default 1s duration.
Further impl notes:
- fixes to `Services.broadcast()` to ensure broken streams get discarded
gracefully.
- we use a `pikerd` side singleton mutex `trio.Lock()` to ensure
one-and-only-one `samplerd` is ever spawned per `pikerd` actor tree.
Drop the `_services` module level ref and adjust all client code to
match. Drop struct inheritance and convert all methods to class level.
Move `Brokerd.locks` -> `Services.locks` and add sampling mod to pikerd
enabled set.
We're moving toward a single actor managing sampler work and distributed
independently of `brokerd` services such that a user can run samplers on
different hosts then real-time data feed infra. Most of the
implementation details include aggregating `.data._sampling` routines
into a new `Sampler` singleton type.
Move the following methods to class methods:
- `.increment_ohlc_buffer()` to allow a single task to increment all
registered shm buffers.
- `.broadcast()` for IPC relay to all registered clients/shms.
Further add a new `maybe_open_global_sampler()` which allocates
a service nursery and assigns it to the `Sampler.service_nursery`; this
is prep for putting the step incrementer in a singleton service task
higher up the data-layer actor tree.
When we see multiple history frames that are duplicate to the request
set, bail re-trying after a number of tries (6 just cuz) and return
early from the tsdb backfill loop; presume that this many duplicates
means we've hit the beginning of history. Use a `collections.Counter`
for the duplicate counts. Make sure and warn log in such cases.
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.
