qPython is a Python library providing support for interprocess communication between Python and kdb+ processes, it offers:

  • Synchronous and asynchronous queries

  • Convenient asynchronous callbacks mechanism

  • Support for kdb+ protocol and types as of kdb+ v4.0

  • Uncompression of the IPC data stream

  • Internal representation of data via numpy arrays (lists, complex types) and numpy data types (atoms)

  • Supported on Python 3.4/3.5/3.6 and numpy 1.8+

For more details please refer to the documentation.

Installation

To install qPython from PyPI:

$ pip install qpython3

Please do not use old PyPI package name: qpython or exxeleron-qpython.

Building package

Documentation

qPython documentation is generated with help of Sphinx document generator. In order to build the documentation, including the API docs, execute: make html from the doc directory.

Documentation is built into the: doc/build/html/ directory.

Compile Cython extensions

qPython utilizes Cython to tune performance critical parts of the code.

Instructions:

  • Execute: python setup.py build_ext --inplace

Build binary distribution

Instructions:

  • Execute: python setup.py bdist

Testing

qPython uses py.test as a test runner for unit tests.

Instructions:

  • Make sure that top directory is included in the PYTHONPATH

  • Execute: py.test

Requirements

qPython requires numpy 1.8 to run.

Optional requirements have to be met to provide additional features:

  • tune performance of critical parts of the code:

    • Cython 0.20.1

  • support serialization/deserialization of pandas.Series and pandas.DataFrame

    • pandas 0.14.0

  • run Twisted sample:

    • Twisted 13.2.0

  • build documentation via Sphinx:

    • Sphinx 1.2.3

    • mock 1.0.1

Required libraries can be installed using pip.

To install all the required dependencies, execute: pip install -r requirements.txt

Minimal set of required dependencies can be installed by executing: pip install -r requirements-minimal.txt
