# Polyfill-rs A high-performance, low-latency Rust client for Polymarket optimized for high-frequency trading. ## Overview Polyfill-rs provides a comprehensive trading infrastructure for algorithmic trading strategies on Polymarket's prediction markets. The library is designed for institutional-grade trading systems requiring high throughput and robust error handling. **Key Features:** - **Drop-in replacement** for `polymarket-rs-client` with enhanced functionality - **High-performance order book management** with O(log n) operations - **Real-time market data streaming** with WebSocket support - **Trade execution simulation** with slippage protection - **Comprehensive error handling** with specific error types ## Architecture ### Core Components **Order Book Management** - Real-time order book maintenance with `O(log n)` operations - Thread-safe concurrent access patterns - Market impact calculation and liquidity analysis - Snapshot generation for strategy backtesting **Trade Execution Engine** - Market order simulation with slippage protection - Limit order placement and management - Fill event processing and tracking - Fee calculation and cost analysis **Streaming Infrastructure** - WebSocket-based real-time market data feeds - Automatic reconnection with exponential backoff - Message parsing and validation - Multi-stream management for concurrent market monitoring **Client Interface** - REST API integration for order management - Authentication and signature generation - Rate limiting and request throttling - Comprehensive error handling with retry logic ## Performance Characteristics ### Latency Optimization - Zero-copy data structures where possible - Lock-free concurrent access patterns - Minimal allocation in hot paths - SIMD-optimized mathematical operations ### Throughput Capabilities - High-frequency order book updates (10,000+ updates/second) - Concurrent stream processing - Efficient memory management with object pooling - Optimized serialization/deserialization ### Memory Efficiency - Compact data representations - Minimal heap allocations - Efficient string handling - Memory-mapped data structures for large datasets ## Installation Add to your `Cargo.toml`: ```toml [dependencies] polyfill-rs = "0.1.0" ``` ## Usage ### Basic Client Initialization (Compatible with polymarket-rs-client) ```rust use polyfill_rs::{ClobClient, OrderArgs, Side}; use rust_decimal::Decimal; let mut client = ClobClient::with_l1_headers( "https://clob.polymarket.com", "your_private_key", 137, ); // Get API credentials let api_creds = client.create_or_derive_api_key(None).await?; client.set_api_creds(api_creds); // Create and post order let order_args = OrderArgs::new( "token_id", Decimal::from_str("0.75")?, Decimal::from_str("100.0")?, Side::BUY, ); let result = client.create_and_post_order(&order_args).await?; ``` ### Advanced Features (Polyfill-rs specific) ```rust use polyfill_rs::{PolyfillClient, ClientConfig}; // Advanced configuration let config = ClientConfig { base_url: "https://clob.polymarket.com".to_string(), chain_id: 137, private_key: Some("your_private_key".to_string()), max_slippage: Some(Decimal::from_str("0.001")?), fee_rate: Some(Decimal::from_str("0.02")?), ..Default::default() }; let mut client = PolyfillClient::with_config(config)?; // Subscribe to real-time order book updates client.subscribe_to_order_book("token_id").await?; // Process incoming messages while let Some(message) = client.get_next_message().await? { println!("Received: {:?}", message); } ``` ### Order Book Management ```rust use polyfill_rs::{OrderBookManager, OrderDelta, Side}; let mut book_manager = OrderBookManager::new(); // Apply order book delta let delta = OrderDelta { token_id: "market_token".to_string(), timestamp: chrono::Utc::now(), side: Side::Buy, price: Decimal::from_str("0.75")?, size: Decimal::from_str("100.0")?, sequence: 1, }; book_manager.apply_delta(delta)?; // Retrieve order book state let book = book_manager.get_book("market_token")?; let best_bid = book.best_bid(); let best_ask = book.best_ask(); let spread = book.spread(); ``` ### Trade Execution Simulation ```rust use polyfill_rs::{FillEngine, MarketOrderRequest}; let mut fill_engine = FillEngine::new( Decimal::from_str("0.001")?, // max_slippage Decimal::from_str("0.02")?, // fee_rate ); let order = MarketOrderRequest { token_id: "market_token".to_string(), side: Side::Buy, size: Decimal::from_str("50.0")?, max_price: Some(Decimal::from_str("0.80")?), }; let result = fill_engine.execute_market_order(&book, order)?; println!("Filled: {} at avg price: {}", result.filled_size, result.average_price); ``` ### Real-time Market Data ```rust use polyfill_rs::{StreamManager, WebSocketStream}; let mut stream_manager = StreamManager::new(); // Subscribe to order book updates let stream = WebSocketStream::new("wss://clob.polymarket.com/ws").await?; stream_manager.add_stream("orderbook", stream).await?; // Process incoming messages while let Some(message) = stream_manager.next().await { match message { Ok(msg) => { // Process order book update if let Some(delta) = msg.to_order_delta() { book_manager.apply_delta(delta)?; } } Err(e) => { // Handle connection errors eprintln!("Stream error: {}", e); } } } ``` ### Demo Trading Strategy ```rust use polyfill_rs::{PolyfillClient, OrderBookManager, FillEngine}; struct ArbitrageStrategy { client: PolyfillClient, book_manager: OrderBookManager, fill_engine: FillEngine, min_spread: Decimal, position_size: Decimal, } impl ArbitrageStrategy { async fn execute_arbitrage(&mut self, token_id: &str) -> Result<()> { let book = self.book_manager.get_book(token_id)?; // Calculate arbitrage opportunity let spread = book.spread(); if spread < self.min_spread { return Ok(()); } let mid_price = book.mid_price(); let bid_price = book.best_bid().unwrap().price; let ask_price = book.best_ask().unwrap().price; // Execute cross-spread orders let buy_order = self.client.create_order( token_id, Side::Buy, self.position_size, Some(bid_price), ).await?; let sell_order = self.client.create_order( token_id, Side::Sell, self.position_size, Some(ask_price), ).await?; Ok(()) } } ``` ## Configuration ### Performance Tuning ```rust use polyfill_rs::Config; let config = Config { // Network configuration base_url: "https://clob.polymarket.com".to_string(), chain_id: 137, // Authentication private_key: Some("your_private_key".to_string()), api_credentials: None, // Performance settings connection_timeout: Duration::from_secs(5), request_timeout: Duration::from_secs(10), max_retries: 3, retry_delay: Duration::from_millis(100), // Rate limiting requests_per_second: 100, burst_size: 10, }; ``` ### Order Book Configuration ```rust use polyfill_rs::OrderBookManager; let book_manager = OrderBookManager::with_config(OrderBookConfig { max_books: 1000, cleanup_interval: Duration::from_secs(300), max_sequence_gap: 1000, }); ``` ## Error Handling The library provides comprehensive error handling with specific error types: ```rust use polyfill_rs::errors::{PolyfillError, ErrorKind}; match result { Ok(data) => { // Process successful response } Err(PolyfillError::Network { .. }) => { // Handle network connectivity issues } Err(PolyfillError::RateLimit { retry_after, .. }) => { // Implement exponential backoff tokio::time::sleep(retry_after).await; } Err(PolyfillError::Order { order_id, .. }) => { // Handle order-specific errors } Err(e) => { // Handle other errors eprintln!("Unexpected error: {}", e); } } ```
