Screamer
Screamingly fast rolling statistics, technical indicators, and signal filters for time series. One C++ core, two languages: a simple Python API and a JavaScript/WebAssembly build, producing identical results on batch arrays and live streams.
Screamer runs in Python and in JavaScript. Both bind the same C++ engine, so a computation in one language matches the other to the last bit.
Why screamer
- Fast. Every operator is implemented in C++ and routinely outruns equivalent NumPy and pandas code, often by a factor of two or more.
- One API, batch or streaming. The same operator runs on a stored array or a live, event-driven stream and produces identical results, so code tested on historical data deploys to production unchanged.
- Causal by construction. Output depends only on current and past inputs, never future ones, which eliminates look-ahead bias.
- Batteries included. 200+ rolling and exponentially-weighted statistics, technical indicators (MACD, RSI, Bollinger Bands, ATR, and more), OHLC volatility estimators, signal filters, plus stream operators and composable pipelines.
- Python and JavaScript. The same operators and the same pipeline model in both ecosystems, from one C++ source.
Python
Python 3.12 or newer.
pip install screamer
The wheel is self-contained (a single abi3 wheel per platform, no build step and no runtime dependencies). For development setup and the example notebooks see the Installation page.
Fit a line to each sliding window of 50 values, take the slope, then its sign to get the trend direction:
import numpy as np
from screamer import RollingPoly2, Sign
data = np.cumsum(np.random.normal(size=300))
slope = RollingPoly2(window_size=50, derivative_order=1)
sign = Sign()
trend = sign(slope(data)) # the same calls work on a live stream, one value at a time
JavaScript
Node 18 or newer, or any modern browser.
npm install @screamer-labs/screamer
The package is self-contained: the WebAssembly module is embedded, so there is no
separate asset to configure. The WASM loads once via await ready(), then you
call operators directly:
import { ready, RollingPoly2, Sign } from "@screamer-labs/screamer";
await ready();
const data = Float64Array.from({ length: 300 }, () => Math.random());
const slope = RollingPoly2(50, 1); // window_size, derivative_order
const sign = Sign();
const trend = sign(slope(data)); // a number, a Float64Array, an iterable, or an async stream
Operators compose into pipelines:
import { ready, Input, Pipeline, RollingMean, Diff } from "@screamer-labs/screamer";
await ready();
const x = Input("x");
const y = Diff(1)(RollingMean(3)(x)); // compose operators into a graph
const p = new Pipeline([x], [y]);
p(data); // bind data at call time; p.live() streams
