An intuitive library tracking dates and timeseries in common using NumPy arrays.
Project description
An intuitive library tracking dates and timeseries in common using numpy arrays.
When working with arrays of timeseries, the manipulation process can easily cause mismatching sets of arrays in time, arrays in the wrong order, slow down the analysis, and lead to generally spending more time to ensure consistency.
This library attempts to address the problem in a way that enables ready access to the current date range, but stays out of your way most of the time. Essentially, this library is a wrapper around numpy arrays.
This library grew out of the use of market and trading data. The timeseries is typically composed of regular intervals but with gaps such as weekends and holidays. In the case of intra-day data, there are interuptions due to periods when the market is closed or gaps in trading.
While the library grew from addressing issues associated with market data, the implementation does not preclude use in other venues. Direct access to the numpy arrays is expected and the point of being able to use the library.
Dependencies
Other than NumPy being installed, there are no other requirements.
Installation
pip install thymus-timeseries
A Brief Look at Capabilities.
Creating a Small Sample Timeseries Object
As a first look, we will create a small timeseries object and show a few ways that it can used. For this example, we will use daily data.
from datetime import datetime import numpy as np from thymus.timeseries import Timeseries ts = Timeseries() # elements of Timeseries() key: (an optional identifier for the timeseries) columns: [] (an optional list of column names for the data) frequency: d (the d in this case refers to the default daily data. current frequencies supported are sec, min, h, d, w, m, q, y) dseries: (this is a numpy array of dates in numeric format) tseries: (this is a numpy array of data. most of the work takes place here.) end-of-period: True (this is a default indicating that the data is as of the end of the data. This only comes into play when converting from one frequency to another and will be ignored for the moment.)
While normal usage of the timeseries object would involve pulling data from a database and inserting data into the timeseries object, we will use a quick-and-dirty method of inputting some data. Dates are stored as either ordinals or timestamps, avoiding clogging up memory with large sets of datetime objects. Because it is daily data, ordinals will be used for this example.
ts = Timeseries() start_date = datetime(2015, 12, 31).toordinal() ts.dseries = start_date + np.arange(10) ts.tseries = np.arange(10) ts.make_arrays()
We created an initial timeseries object. It starts at the end of 2015 and continues for 10 days. Setting the values in dseries and tseries can be somewhat sloppy. For example, a list could be assigned initially to either dseries (the dates) and a numpy array to tseries (the values).
The use of the make_arrays() function converts the date series to an int32 array (because they are ordinal values) and tseries to a float64 array. The idea is that the data might often enter the timeseries object as lists, but then be converted to arrays of appropriate format for use.
The completed timeseries object is:
print(ts) <Timeseries> key: columns: [] frequency: d daterange: ('2015-12-31', '2016-01-09') end-of-period: True shape: (10,)
You can see the date range contained in the date series. The shape refers to the shape of the tseries array. key and columns are free-form, available to update as appropriate to identify the timeseries and content of the columns. Again, the end-of-period flag can be ignored right now.
Selection
Selection of elements is the same as numpy arrays. Currently, our sample has 10 elements.
print(ts[:5]) <Timeseries> key: columns: [] frequency: d daterange: ('2015-12-31', '2016-01-04') end-of-period: True shape: (5,)
Note how the date range above reflects the selected elements.
ts1 = ts % 2 == 0 ts1.tseries [ True False True False True False True False True False]
We can isolate the dates of even numbers:
# note that tseries, not the timeseries obj, is explicitly used with # np.argwhere. More on when to operate directly on tseries later. evens = np.argwhere((ts % 2 == 0).tseries) ts_even = ts[evens] # this just prints a list of date and value pairs only useful with # very small sets (or examples like this) print(ts_even.items('str')) ('2015-12-31', '[0.0]') ('2016-01-02', '[2.0]') ('2016-01-04', '[4.0]') ('2016-01-06', '[6.0]') ('2016-01-08', '[8.0]')
Date-based Selection
So let us use a slightly larger timeseries. 1000 rows 2 columns of data. And, use random values to ensure uselessness.
ts = Timeseries() start_date = datetime(2015, 12, 31).toordinal() ts.dseries = start_date + np.arange(1000) ts.tseries = np.random.random((1000, 2)) ts.make_arrays() print(ts) <Timeseries> key: columns: [] frequency: d daterange: ('2015-12-31', '2018-09-25') end-of-period: True shape: (1000, 2)
You can select on the basis of date ranges, but first we will use a row number technique that is based on slicing. This function is called trunc() for truncation.
# normal truncation -- you will end up with a timeseries with row 100 # through 499. This provides in-place execution. ts.trunc(start=100, finish=500) # this version returns a new timeseries, effective for chaining. ts1 = ts.trunc(start=100, finish=500, new=True)
But suppose you want to select a specific date range? This leads to the next function, truncdate().
# select using datetime objects ts1 = ts.truncdate( start=datetime(2017, 1, 1), finish=datetime(2017, 12, 31), new=True) print(ts1) <Timeseries> key: columns: [] frequency: d daterange: ('2017-01-01', '2017-12-31') end-of-period: True shape: (365, 2)
As you might expect, the timeseries object has a date range of all the days during 2017. But see how this is slightly different than slicing. When you use truncdate() it selects everything within the date range inclusive of the ending date as well. The idea is to avoid having to always find one day after the date range that you want to select to accommodate slicing behavior. This way is more convenient.
You can also convert data from a higer frequency to a lower frequency. Suppose we needed monthly data for 2017 from our timeseries.
start = datetime(2017, 1, 1) finish = datetime(2017, 12, 31) ts1 = ts.truncdate(start=start, finish=finish, new=True).convert('m') print(ts1.items('str')) ('2017-01-31', '[0.1724835781570483, 0.9856812220255055]') ('2017-02-28', '[0.3855043513164875, 0.30697511661843124]') ('2017-03-31', '[0.7067982987769881, 0.7680886691626396]') ('2017-04-30', '[0.07770763295126926, 0.04697651222041588]') ('2017-05-31', '[0.4473657194650975, 0.49443624153533783]') ('2017-06-30', '[0.3793816656495891, 0.03646544387811124]') ('2017-07-31', '[0.2783335012003322, 0.5144979569785825]') ('2017-08-31', '[0.9261879195281345, 0.6980224313957553]') ('2017-09-30', '[0.09531834159018227, 0.5435208082899813]') ('2017-10-31', '[0.6865842769906441, 0.7951735180348887]') ('2017-11-30', '[0.34901775001111657, 0.7014208950555662]') ('2017-12-31', '[0.4731393617405252, 0.630488855197775]')
Or yearly. In this case, we use a flag that governs whether to include the partial period leading up to the last year. The default includes it. However, when unwanted the flag, include_partial can be set to False.
ts1 = ts.convert('y', include_partial=True) print(ts1.items('str')) ('2015-12-31', '[0.2288539210230056, 0.288320541664724]') ('2016-12-31', '[0.5116274142615629, 0.21680312154651182]') ('2017-12-31', '[0.4731393617405252, 0.630488855197775]') ('2018-09-25', '[0.7634145837512148, 0.32026411425902257]') ts2 = ts.convert('y', include_partial=False) print(ts2.items('str')) ('2015-12-31', '[[0.2288539210230056, 0.288320541664724]]') ('2016-12-31', '[[0.5116274142615629, 0.21680312154651182]]') ('2017-12-31', '[[0.4731393617405252, 0.630488855197775]]')
Combining Timeseries
Suppose you want to combine multiple timeseries together that are of different lengths? In this case we assume that the two timeseries end on the same date, but one has a longer tail than the other. However, the operation that you need requires common dates.
By combine we mean instead of two timeseries make one timeseries that has the columns of both.
ts_short = Timeseries() ts_long = Timeseries() end_date = datetime(2016, 12, 31) ts_short.dseries = [ (end_date + timedelta(days=-i)).toordinal() for i in range(5)] ts_long.dseries = [ (end_date + timedelta(days=-i)).toordinal() for i in range(10)] ts_short.tseries = np.zeros((5)) ts_long.tseries = np.ones((10)) ts_short.make_arrays() ts_long.make_arrays() ts_combine = ts_short.combine(ts_long) print(ts.items('str')) ('2016-12-31', '[0.0, 1.0]') ('2016-12-30', '[0.0, 1.0]') ('2016-12-29', '[0.0, 1.0]') ('2016-12-28', '[0.0, 1.0]') ('2016-12-27', '[0.0, 1.0]')
The combine function has a couple variations. While it can be helpful to automatically discard the unwanted rows, you can also enforce that combining does not take place if the number of rows do not match. Also, you can build out the missing information with padding to create a timeseries that has the length of the longest timeseries.
# this would raise an error -- the two are different lengths ts_combine = ts_short.combine(ts_long discard=False) # this combines, and fills 99 as a missing value ts_combine = ts_short.combine(ts_long discard=False, pad=99) print(ts_combine.items('str')) ('2016-12-31', '[0.0, 1.0]') ('2016-12-30', '[0.0, 1.0]') ('2016-12-29', '[0.0, 1.0]') ('2016-12-28', '[0.0, 1.0]') ('2016-12-27', '[0.0, 1.0]') ('2016-12-26', '[99.0, 1.0]') ('2016-12-25', '[99.0, 1.0]') ('2016-12-24', '[99.0, 1.0]') ('2016-12-23', '[99.0, 1.0]') ('2016-12-22', '[99.0, 1.0]')
The combining can also receive multiple timeseries.
ts_combine = ts_short.combine([ts_long, ts_long, ts_long]) print(ts_combine.items('str')) ('2016-12-31', '[0.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0]') ('2016-12-30', '[0.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0]') ('2016-12-29', '[0.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0]') ('2016-12-28', '[0.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0]') ('2016-12-27', '[0.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0]')
Splitting Timeseries
In some ways it would make sense to mirror the combine() function with a split() from an aesthetic standpoint. However, splitting is very straight-forward without such a function. For example, suppose you want a timeseries that only has the the first two columns from our previous example. As you can see in the ts_split tseries, the first two columns were taken.
ts_split = ts_combine[:, :2] print(ts_split.items('str')) ('2016-12-31', '[0.0, 1.0]') ('2016-12-30', '[0.0, 1.0]') ('2016-12-29', '[0.0, 1.0]') ('2016-12-28', '[0.0, 1.0]') ('2016-12-27', '[0.0, 1.0]')
Arithmetic Operations
We have combined timeseries together to stack up rows in common. In addition, we looked at the issue of mismatched lengths. Now we will look at arithmetic approaches and some of the design decisions and tradeoffs associated with mathematical operations.
We will start with the add() function. First, if we assume that all we are adding together are arrays that have exactly the same dateseries, and therefore the same length, and we assume they have exactly the same number of columns, then the whole question becomes trivial. If we relax those constraints, then some choices need to be made.
We will use the long and short timeseries from the previous example.
# this will fail due to dissimilar lengths ts_added = ts_short.add(ts_long, match=True) # this will work ts_added = ts_short.add(ts_long, match=False) [ 1. 1. 1. 1. 1. 1. 1. 1. 1. 1.]
The add() function checks to see if the number of columns match. If they do not an error is raised. If the match flag is True, then it also checks that all the dates in both timeseries match prior to the operation.
If match is False, then as long as the columns are compatible, the operation can take place. It also supports the concept of sparse arrays as well. For example, suppose you have a timeseries that is primary, but you would like to add in a timeseries values from only a few dates within the range. This function will find the appropriate dates adding in the values at just those rows.
To summarize, all dates in common to both timeseries will be included in the new timeseries if match is False.
Because the previous function is somewhat specialized, you can assume that the checking of common dates and creating the new timeseries can be somewhat slower than other approaches.
If we assume some commonalities about our timeseries, then we can do our work in a more intuitive fashion.
Assumptions of Commonality
Let us assume that our timeseries might be varying in length, but we absolutely know what either our starting date or ending date is. And, let us assume that all the dates for the periods in common to the timeseries match.
If we accept those assumptions, then a number of operations become quite easy.
The timeseries object can accept simple arithmetic as if it is an array. It automatically passes the values on to the tseries array. If the two arrays are not the same length the longer array is truncated to the shorter length. So if you were add two arrays together that end at the same date, you would want to sort them latest date to earliest date using the function sort_by_date().
Examples
# starting tseries ts.tseries [ 0. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9.] (ts + 3).tseries [ 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12.] # Also, reverse (__radd__) (3 + ts).tseries [ 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12.] # of course not just addition 5 * ts.tseries [ 0. 5. 10. 15. 20. 25. 30. 35. 40. 45.]
Also, in-place operations. But first, we will make a copy.
ts1 = ts.clone() ts1.tseries /= 3 print(ts1.tseries) [0.0 0.3333333333333333 0.6666666666666666 1.0 1.3333333333333333 1.6666666666666667 2.0 2.3333333333333335 2.6666666666666665 3.0] ts1 = ts ** 3 ts1.tseries 0.0 1.0 8.0 27.0 64.0 125.0 216.0 343.0 512.0 729.0 ts1 = 10 ** ts ts1.tseries [1.0 10.0 100.0 1000.0 10000.0 100000.0 1000000.0 10000000.0 100000000.0 1000000000.0]
In other words, the normal container functions you can use with numpy arrays are available to the timeseries objects. The following container functions for arrays are supported.
__pow__ __add__ __rsub__ __sub__ __eq__ __ge__ __gt__ __le__ __lt__ __mod__ __mul__ __ne__ __radd__ __rmod__ __rmul__ __rpow__ __abs__ __pos__ __neg__ __invert__ __rdivmod__ __rfloordiv__ __floordiv__ __truediv__ __rtruediv__ __divmod__ __and__ __or__ __ror__ __rand__ __rxor__ __xor__ __rshift__ __rlshift__ __lshift__ __rrshift__ __iadd__ __ifloordiv__ __imod__ __imul__ __ipow__ __isub__ __itruediv__] __iand__ __ilshift__ __ior__ __irshift__ __ixor__
Functions of Arrays Not Supported
The purpose the timeseries objects is to implement an intuitive usage of timeseries objects in a fashion that is consistent with NumPy. However, it is not intended to replace functions that are better handled explicitly with the dseries and tseries arrays directly. The difference will be clear by comparing the list of functions for the timeseries object versus a numpy array. Most of the functions of the timeseries object is related to handling the commonality of date series with time series. You can see that the bulk of the thymus functions relate to maintenance of the coordination betwee the date series and timeseries. The meat of the functions still lie with the numpy arrays.

Other Date Functions
Variations on a theme:
# truncation ts.truncdate( start=datetime(2017, 1, 1), finish=datetime(2017, 12, 31)) # just start date etc. ts.truncdate( start=datetime(2017, 1, 1)) # this was in date order but suppose it was in reverse order? # this result will give the same answer ts1 = ts.truncdate( start=datetime(2017, 1, 1), new=True) ts.reverse() ts1 = ts.truncdate( start=datetime(2017, 1, 1), new=True) # use the date format native to the dateseries (ordinal / timestamp) ts1 = ts.truncdate( start=datetime(2017, 1, 1).toordinal(), new=True) # suppose you start with a variable that represents a date range # date range can be either a list or tuple ts.truncdate( [datetime(2017, 1, 1), datetime(2017, 12, 31)])
Assorted Date Functions
# native format ts.daterange() (735963, 735972) # str format ts.daterange('str') ('2015-12-31', '2016-01-09') # datetime format ts.daterange('datetime') (datetime.datetime(2015, 12, 31, 0, 0), datetime.datetime(2016, 1, 9, 0, 0)) # native format ts.start_date(); ts.end_date() 735963 735972 # str format ts.start_date('str'); ts.end_date('str') 2015-12-31 2016-01-09 # datetime format ts.start_date('datetime'); ts.end_date('datetime') 2015-12-31 00:00:00 2016-01-09 00:00:00
Sometimes it is helpful to find a particular row based on the date. Also, that date might not be in the dateseries, and so, the closest date will suffice.
We will create a sample timeseries to illustrate.
ts = Timeseries() ts.dseries = [] ts.tseries = [] start_date = datetime(2015, 12, 31) for i in range(40): date = start_date + timedelta(days=i) if date.weekday() not in [5, 6]: # skipping weekends ts.dseries.append(date.toordinal()) ts.tseries.append(i) ts.make_arrays() # row_no, date (0, '2015-12-31') (1, '2016-01-01') (2, '2016-01-04') (3, '2016-01-05') (4, '2016-01-06') (5, '2016-01-07') (6, '2016-01-08') (7, '2016-01-11') (8, '2016-01-12') (9, '2016-01-13') (10, '2016-01-14') (11, '2016-01-15') (12, '2016-01-18') (13, '2016-01-19') (14, '2016-01-20') (15, '2016-01-21') (16, '2016-01-22') (17, '2016-01-25') (18, '2016-01-26') (19, '2016-01-27') (20, '2016-01-28') (21, '2016-01-29') (22, '2016-02-01') (23, '2016-02-02') (24, '2016-02-03') (25, '2016-02-04') (26, '2016-02-05') (27, '2016-02-08') date1 = datetime(2016, 1, 7) # existing date within date series date2 = datetime(2016, 1, 16) # date falling on a weekend date3 = datetime(2015, 6, 16) # date prior to start of date series date4 = datetime(2016, 3, 8) # date after to end of date series # as datetime and in the series existing_row = ts.row_no(rowdate=date1, closest=1) 5 existing_date = ts.closest_date(rowdate=date1, closest=1) print(datetime.fromordinal(existing_date)) 2016-01-07 00:00:00 # as datetime but date not in series next_row = ts.row_no(rowdate=date2, closest=1) 12 next_date = ts.closest_date(rowdate=date2, closest=1) print(datetime.fromordinal(next_date)) 2016-01-18 00:00:00 prev_row = ts.row_no(rowdate=date2, closest=-1) 11 prev_date = ts.closest_date(rowdate=date2, closest=-1) print(datetime.fromordinal(prev_date)) 2016-01-15 00:00:00 # this will fail -- date is outside the date series # as datetime but date not in series, look for earlier date ts.closest_date(rowdate=date3, closest=-1) # this will fail -- date is outside the date series ts.closest_date(rowdate=date4, closest=1)
Functions by Category
Output
ts.as_dict()
Returns the time series as a dict with the date as the key and without the header information.
ts.as_json(indent=2)
This function returns the timeseries in JSON format and includes the header information.
ts.as_list()
Returns the timeseries as a list.
ts.header()
This function returns a dict of the non-timeseries data.
ts.items(fmt=None)
This function returns the date series and the time series as if it is in one list. The term items used to suggest the iteration of dicts where items are the key, value combination. if fmt == 'str': the dates are output as strings
ts.months(include_partial=True)
This function provides a quick way to summarize daily (or less) as monthly data. It is basically a pass-through to the convert function with more decoration of the months. Usage: months(include_partial=True) returns a dict with year-month as keys
ts.years(include_partial=True)
This function provides a quick way to summarize daily (or less) as yearly data. It is basically a pass-through to the convert function with more decoration of the years. Usage: years(include_partial=True) returns a dict with year as keys
ts.datetime_series()
This function returns the dateseries converted to a list of datetime objects.
ts.date_string_series(dt_fmt=None)
This function returns a list of the dates in the timeseries as strings. Usage: self.date_string_series(dt_fmt=None) dt_fmt is a datetime mask to alter the default formatting.
Array Manipulation
ts.add(ts, match=True)
Adds two timeseries together. if match is True: means there should be a one to one corresponding date in each time series. If not raise error. else: means that timeseries with sporadic or missing dates can be added Note: this does not evaluate whether both timeseries have the same number of columns. It will fail if they do not. Returns the timeseries. Not in-place.
ts.clone()
This function returns a copy of the timeseries.
ts.combine(tss, discard=True, pad=None)
This function combines timeseries into a single array. Combining in this case means accumulating additional columns of information. Truncation takes place at the end of rows. So if the timeseries is sorted from latest dates to earliest dates, the older values would be removed. Usage: self.combine(tss, discard=True, pad=None) Think of tss as the plural of timeseries. If discard: Will truncate all timeseries lengths down to the shortest timeseries. if discard is False: An error will be raised if the all the lengths do not match unless: if pad is not None: the shorter timeseries will be padded with the value pad. Returns the new ts.
ts.common_length(ts1, ts2)
This static method trims the lengths of two timeseries and returns two timeseries with the same length. The idea is that in order to do array operations there must be a common length for each timeseries. Reflecting the bias for using timeseries sorted from latest info to earlier info, truncation takes place at the end of the array. That way older less important values are removed if necessary. Usage: ts1_new, ts2_new = self.common_length(ts1, ts2)
ts.convert(new_freq, include_partial=True, **kwargs)
This function returns the timeseries converted to another frequency, such as daily to monthly. Usage: convert(new_freq, include_partial=True, **kwargs) The only kwarg is weekday=<some value> This is used when converting to weekly data. The weekday number corresponds to the the datetime.weekday() function.
ts.extend(ts, overlay=True)
This function combines a timeseries to another, taking into account the possibility of overlap. This assumes that the frequency is the same. This function is chiefly envisioned to extend a timeseries with additional dates. Usage: self.extend(ts, overlay=True) If overlay is True then the incoming timeseries will overlay any values that are duplicated.
ts.trunc(start=None, finish=None, new=False)
This function truncates in place, typically. truncate from (start:finish) remember start is lowest number, latest date This truncation works on the basis of slicing, so finish is not inclusive. Usage: self.trunc(start=None, finish=None, new=False)
ts.truncdate(start=None, finish=None, new=False)
This function truncates in place on the basis of dates. Usage: self.truncdate(start=None, finish=None, new=False) start and finish are dates, input as either datetime or the actual internal format of the **dseries** (ordinals or timestamps). If the dates are not actually in the list, the starting date will be the next viable date after the start date requested. If the finish date is not available, the previous date from the finish date will be the last. If new is True, the timeseries will not be modified in place. Rather a new timeseries will be returned instead.
ts.replace(ts, match=True)
This function replaces values where the dates match an incoming timeseries. So if the incoming date on the timeseries matches, the value in the current timeseries will be replaced by the incoming timeseries. Usage: self.replace(ts, match=True) If match is False, the incoming timseries may have dates not found in the self timeseries. Returns the modified timeseries. Not in place.
ts.reverse()
This function does in-place reversal of the timeseries and dateseries.
ts.get_diffs()
This function gets the differences between values from date to date in the timeseries.
ts.get_pcdiffs()
This function gets the percent differences between values in the timeseries. No provision for dividing by zero here.
ts.set_ones(fmt=None, new=False)
This function converts an existing timeseries to ones using the same shape as the existing timeseries. It is used as a convenience to create an empty timeseries with a specified date range. if fmt use as shape usage: set_ones(self, fmt=None, new=False)
ts.set_zeros(fmt=None, new=False)
This function converts an existing timeseries to zeros using the same shape as the existing timeseries. It is used as a convenience to create an empty timeseries with a specified date range. if fmt use as shape usage: set_zeros(self, fmt=None, new=False)
ts.sort_by_date(reverse=False, force=False)
This function converts a timeseries to either date order or reverse date order. Usage: sort_by_date(self, reverse=False, force=False) If reverse is True, then order will be newest to oldest. If force is False, the assumption is made that comparing the first and last date will determine the current order of the timeseries. That would mean that unnecessary sorting can be avoided. Also, if the order needs to be reversed, the sort is changed via the less expensive reverse function. If dates and values are in no particular order, with force=True, the actual sort takes place. This function changes the data in-place.
Evaluation
ts.daterange(fmt=None)
This function returns the starting and ending dates of the timeseries. Usage: self.daterange() (735963, 735972) self.daterange('str') ('2015-12-31', '2016-01-09') self.daterange('datetime') (datetime(2015, 12, 31, 0, 0), datetime.datetime(2016, 1, 9, 0, 0))
ts.start_date(fmt=None)
This function returns the starting date of the timeseries in its native value, timestamp or ordinal. If fmt is 'str' returns in string format If fmt is 'datetime' returns in string format
ts.end_date(fmt=None)
This funtcion returns the ending date of the timeseries in its native value, timestamp or ordinal. If fmt is 'str' returns in string format If fmt is 'datetime' returns in string format
ts.get_duped_dates()
This function pulls dates that are duplicated. This is to be used to locate timeseries that are faulty. Usage: get_duped_dates() returns [[odate1, count], [odate2, count]]
ts.series_direction()
if a lower row is a lower date, then 1 for ascending if a lower row is a higher date then -1 for descending
ts.get_date_series_type()
This function returns the date series type associated with the timeseries. The choices are TS_ORDINAL or TS_TIMESTAMP.
ts.if_dseries_match(ts)
This function returns True if the date series are the same.
ts.if_tseries_match(ts)
This function returns True if the time series are the same.
Utilities
ts.date_native(date)
This awkwardly named function returns a date in the native format of of the timeseries, namely ordinal or timestamp.
ts.row_no(rowdate, closest=0, no_error=False)
Shows the row in the timeseries Usage: ts.row(rowdate=<datetime>) ts.row(rowdate=<date as either ordinal or timestamp>) Returns an error if the date is not found in the index if closest is invoked: closest = 1 find the closest date after the rowdate closest = -1 find the closest date before the rowdate If no_error returns -1 instead of raising an error if the date was outside of the timeseries.
ts.get_datetime(date)
This function returns a date as a datetime object. This takes into account the type of date stored in **dseries**. Usage: self.get_datetime(date)
ts.lengths()
This function returns the lengths of both the date series and time series. Both numbers are included in case a mismatch has occurred.
ts.shape()
This function return the shape of the timeseries. This is a shortcut to putting in ts.tseries.shape.
ts.fmt_date(numericdate, dt_type, dt_fmt=None)
This static method accepts a date and converts it to the format used in the timeseries.
ts.make_arrays()
Convert the date and time series lists (if so) to numpy arrays
ts.get_fromDB(**kwargs)
This is just a stub to suggest a viable name for getting data from a database.
ts.save_toDB(**kwargs):
This is just a stub to suggest a viable name for saving data to a database.
