chronopype 0.8.1

A flexible clock implementation for real-time and backtesting scenarios

Chronopype

A flexible clock implementation for real-time and backtesting scenarios in Python. Chronopype provides a robust framework for managing time-based operations with support for both real-time processing and historical data backtesting.

Features

• 🕒 Flexible Clock System: Support for both real-time and backtesting modes
• 🔄 Processor Framework: Extensible system for implementing time-based operations with retry and timeout support
• 🌐 Network-Aware: Built-in network processor with automatic reconnection and exponential backoff
• ⚡ Async Support: Full async/await support for efficient I/O operations
• 📊 Performance Monitoring: Built-in execution time tracking, percentile statistics, and lagging processor detection
• 🔒 Type Safe: Fully typed with MyPy strict mode
• 🧪 Well Tested: Comprehensive test suite with high coverage

Installation

# Using pip
pip install chronopype

# Using uv
uv add chronopype

Quick Start

Here's a simple example of using chronopype:

import asyncio
import time

from chronopype import ClockConfig, ClockMode
from chronopype.clocks import RealtimeClock
from chronopype.processors import TickProcessor


class MyProcessor(TickProcessor):
    async def async_tick(self, timestamp: float) -> None:
        print(f"Processing at {timestamp}")


async def main():
    config = ClockConfig(
        clock_mode=ClockMode.REALTIME,
        start_time=time.time(),
        tick_size=1.0,  # 1 second ticks
    )

    async with RealtimeClock(config) as clock:
        clock.add_processor(MyProcessor())
        await clock.run_til(config.start_time + 10)


if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.run(main())

Core Components

• Clocks: Base implementations for time management

  • RealtimeClock: For real-time processing with drift compensation
  • BacktestClock: For deterministic historical data simulation

• Processors: Framework for implementing time-based operations

  • TickProcessor: Base class for all processors
  • NetworkProcessor: Network-aware processor with automatic reconnection

Development

Chronopype uses uv for dependency management and packaging:

# Install dependencies
uv sync

# Run tests
uv run pytest

# Run type checks
uv run mypy chronopype

# Run linting
uv run ruff check .

# Run pre-commit hooks
uv run pre-commit run --all-files
