Adds a Java binding (`bindings/java`) over the C ABI hub — the fourth language stecker after C#, Go and R, reaching the hub through the Java Foreign Function & Memory API (Panama, `java.lang.foreign`, final in Java 22) rather than JNI or jextract. ## What's here - **`bindings/java`** — a Maven module (`org.wickra:wickra`) exposing all 514 indicators as idiomatic `AutoCloseable` classes. The downcall handles (`internal/NativeMethods.java`), the per-indicator wrappers and the output records are generated from `bindings/c/include/wickra.h` (same eight-archetype taxonomy as the C#/Go/R generators: scalar/batch, multi-output, bars, profile, values-profile, array-input). The opaque handle is a `MemorySegment` freed by a registered `java.lang.ref.Cleaner` action; multi-output returns a `record` (`null` at warmup), bars a `record[]`, profiles a record with a trailing `double[]`. The hand-written `WickraNative` resolves the native library (a bundled per-platform copy, or a `target/release` fallback for local development) and validates it against a sentinel symbol. repr(C) struct offsets are computed in the generator so the FFM reads land on the exact bytes. - **`examples/java`** — the full example suite mirroring C/C#/Go/R: streaming, backtest, multi_timeframe, parallel_assets (parallel streams), three strategies, and `FetchBtcusdt`/`LiveBinance`. - **CI** — a `java` job builds the C ABI library, sets up JDK 22 (Temurin, with a CDN-flake retry), runs the archetype test suite and the seven offline examples on Linux, macOS and Windows. - **Release** — a gated `java-publish` job (skipped until the `JAVA_PUBLISH_ENABLED` repository variable is set) stages the native libraries from the `wickra-c-<triple>.tar.gz` assets into the binding's resources and deploys to Maven Central with GPG signing. Independent of the GitHub-release job, like the NuGet job. - **Docs** — Java added to the README languages table, project layout, building/testing and comparison table, CONTRIBUTING, ARCHITECTURE, the examples index, the issue/PR templates, the About-description template, and the other binding READMEs. ## Requirements Java 22+ (the FFM API is final since Java 22). The binding requires `--enable-native-access=ALL-UNNAMED` at runtime; the test and example runners pass it automatically. No Rust crate or `Cargo.toml` change — the Java binding is standalone and additive. The generated `*.java` are committed (like the node `index.js`/`index.d.ts`); the generator stays private.

**Streaming-first technical indicators for R, over the Wickra C ABI hub via `.Call`.**
|
|
|
|
Wickra is a multi-language technical-analysis library with a Rust core and
|
|
bindings for Python, Node.js and WebAssembly, plus a C ABI for C/C++, C#, Go, Java, R
|
|
and any other C-capable language. Every indicator is an O(1) streaming state
|
|
machine, so live trading and historical backtests share the exact same
|
|
implementation. This package is the R binding; it reaches the C ABI hub through
|
|
R's native `.Call` interface and exposes all 514 indicators as constructors that
|
|
return a lightweight `wickra_indicator` object.
|
|
|
|
## Install
|
|
|
|
The package compiles a thin C glue layer (`.Call`) against the prebuilt Wickra
|
|
C ABI library, so a C toolchain (Rtools on Windows) is required, plus the C ABI
|
|
header and library. Build the library from the workspace, then install the
|
|
package pointing at it:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cargo build -p wickra-c --release
|
|
WICKRA_INCLUDE_DIR="$PWD/bindings/c/include" \
|
|
WICKRA_LIB_DIR="$PWD/target/release" \
|
|
R CMD INSTALL bindings/r
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
On Windows the C ABI DLL is bundled into the package and put on the load path
|
|
automatically; on Linux and macOS the library path is baked in via rpath.
|
|
|
|
## Quick start
|
|
|
|
```r
|
|
library(wickra)
|
|
|
|
# Batch: run an indicator over a whole series (NaN at warmup positions).
|
|
prices <- 100 + (0:999) * 0.1
|
|
sma <- Sma(20)
|
|
values <- batch(sma, prices)
|
|
|
|
# Streaming: the same indicator, fed one observation at a time in O(1).
|
|
rsi <- Rsi(14)
|
|
for (price in prices) {
|
|
v <- update(rsi, price) # NaN during warmup
|
|
if (!is.na(v) && v > 70) message("overbought")
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
# Multi-output indicators return a named vector (NA while warming up).
|
|
macd <- MacdIndicator(12, 26, 9)
|
|
update(macd, 42) # c(macd = NA, signal = NA, histogram = NA)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`batch(ind, prices)` and feeding the same prices through `update()` produce
|
|
identical values — the equivalence is enforced by the test suite. Candle-input
|
|
indicators take the OHLCV fields plus a timestamp, e.g.
|
|
`update(atr, open, high, low, close, volume, timestamp)`. The native handle is
|
|
freed automatically when the object is garbage-collected.
|
|
|
|
## Documentation
|
|
|
|
The full indicator catalogue, guides, quickstarts, and API reference live in the
|
|
main repository and documentation site:

|
|
- **Docs** (quickstarts, cookbook, TA-Lib migration): <https://docs.wickra.org>
|
|
- **Runnable examples:** [`examples/r/`](https://github.com/wickra-lib/wickra/tree/main/examples/r)
|
|
|
|
Wickra ships native bindings for Python, Node.js, WebAssembly and Rust, plus a
|
|
C ABI hub that any C-capable language (C, C++, C#, Go, Java, R) links against —
|
|
all exposing the same indicators from the shared, `unsafe`-forbidden Rust core.
|
|
|
|
## Disclaimer
|
|
|
|
Wickra is an indicator toolkit, not a trading system. The values it computes are
|
|
deterministic transforms of the input data — they are not financial advice and
|
|
do not predict the market. Any use in a live trading context is at your own risk.
|
|
The library is provided **as is**, without warranty of any kind.
