Stacked on #315 (the native Binance REST fetcher). Retarget to `main` once #315 merges.
Migrates the runnable examples off third-party data-I/O packages onto Wickra's
native data layer (`CandleReader`, `Resampler`, `BinanceFeed`, `fetch_*klines`).
## Third-party packages removed (the zero-dep selling point)
- **Node**: `ws` (live feed → BinanceFeed) — dropped from package.json + lockfile
- **Go**: `github.com/coder/websocket` — dropped from go.mod / go.sum (`go mod tidy`)
- **Java**: `jackson-databind` (live feed + REST fetch) — dropped from pom.xml
- **R**: `jsonlite` + `websocket` + `later` — dropped from the README notes
Each language's CSV loading now goes through `CandleReader`, manual resampling
through `Resampler`, the live feed through `BinanceFeed`, and (Java/R) the REST
download through the native fetcher.
## Verification
Ran the offline examples per language against the bundled data — backtest and
multi_timeframe produce identical output across Python / Node / Go / Java / R
(e.g. ATR(14) last 345.1010; 1h→5m resamples to 240 bars, →15m to 80 bars).
C# / C / WASM (stdlib-only, no third-party deps to remove) follow in this branch.
Note: the streaming `strategy_*` examples have pre-existing candle-indicator
runtime bugs (CI only syntax-smokes them); the CSV migration preserves their
shape and leaves those bugs for a separate fix.
backtest.py and multi_timeframe.py read OHLCV CSVs with csv.DictReader
and crashed opaquely on malformed input: a missing column raised a bare
KeyError, a non-numeric cell surfaced NumPy's column-less ValueError,
and an empty or all-NaN series hit IndexError deep in summarize.
Validate the header against the required columns up front, catch
non-numeric cells and report the offending row/column, reject a
header-only file distinctly from a headerless one, and guard resample
and summarize against empty input. Every failure mode now raises a
ValueError naming the file, row and column.
A multi-language technical analysis library: 25 indicators across trend,
momentum, volatility, and volume families, every one a state machine with
O(1) per-tick updates. Batch evaluation is provided by a blanket extension
trait over the streaming primitive, so live trading bots and historical
backtests run the same code path.
What ships in this initial drop:
crates/wickra-core - 25 indicators, Indicator/BatchExt/Chain traits,
OHLCV types with validation; 171 unit tests,
property tests, Wilder/Bollinger textbook tests.
crates/wickra - top-level facade + criterion benches for every
indicator at 1K/10K/100K series sizes.
crates/wickra-data - streaming CSV reader, tick-to-candle aggregator,
multi-timeframe resampler, Binance Spot kline
WebSocket adapter behind feature live-binance;
11 unit + 1 doctest.
bindings/python - PyO3 + maturin, NumPy I/O, type stubs (.pyi),
56 pytest tests including streaming==batch
equivalence, Wilder reference values, lifecycle.
bindings/node - napi-rs native module, TypeScript .d.ts
auto-generated, 7 node --test cases.
bindings/wasm - wasm-bindgen ES module for browser/bundler/Node;
interactive HTML demo at examples/index.html.
examples/ - Python and Rust scripts: backtest, live trading,
parallel multi-asset, multi-timeframe, Binance.
benchmarks/ - cross-library comparison against TA-Lib,
pandas-ta, finta, talipp; Wickra wins every
category by 11-1030x (batch) and 17x+ streaming.
.github/workflows/ - CI matrix (Rust + Python + Node + WASM on
Linux/macOS/Windows), release pipeline for
PyPI wheels and npm.
