Thanks yet again to @tshirtman for suggesting this. Instead of defining a `on_mouse_pos()` on every widget simply register and track each widget and loop through them all once (or as much as is necessary) in a single callback. The assumption here is that we get a performance boost by looping widgets instead of having `kivy` loop and call back each widget thus avoiding costly python function calls. |

piker
Trading gear for hackers.
Install
piker
is currently under heavy alpha development and as such should be cloned from this repo and hacked on directly.
A couple bleeding edge components are being used atm pertaining to async ports of libraries for use with trio.
Before installing make sure you have pipenv. For a development install:
git clone git@github.com:pikers/piker.git
cd piker
pipenv install --dev -e .
pipenv shell
To start the real-time index ETF watchlist with the robinhood backend:
piker watch indexes -l info
If you want to see super granular price changes, increase the broker quote query rate
with -r
:
piker watch indexes -l info -r 10
It is also possible to run the broker-client micro service as a daemon:
pikerd -l info
Then start the client app as normal:
piker watch indexes -l info
Laggy distros
For those running pop-culture distros that don't yet ship python3.7
you'll need to install it as well as kivy source build dependencies since currently there's reliance on an async development branch.
Tech
piker
is an attempt at a pro-grade, next-gen open source toolset for real-time trading and financial analysis.
It tries to use as much cutting edge tech as possible including (but not limited to):
- Python 3.7+
trio
