* feat(data-layer): TickAggregator in Node, WASM, Python + C ABI hub First data-layer feature (F2): roll trade ticks up into fixed-timeframe OHLCV candles, exposed natively and over the C ABI. - wickra-data wired as a binding dependency (workspace dep; its wickra-core dep is default-features=false so it never forces rayon into the rayon-free WASM build — native bindings re-enable parallel through their own dependency). - Node `TickAggregator(bucket, gapFill?)` -> `push(price, size, ts): Candle[]`; WASM the same (array of objects); Python `push(...) -> list[tuple]`. - C ABI: `WickraCandle` struct + `wickra_tick_aggregator_new/push/free` (push writes candles into a caller buffer and returns the count), generated via the capi generator's new DATA_LAYER section; cbindgen now parses wickra-data so `TickAggregator` is a forward-declared opaque; header vendored to bindings/go. Verified bit-identical across Node/WASM/Python/C/C++ (o=100 h=101 l=100 c=101 v=3 ts=0 for the shared 3-tick probe). WIP: Go/C#/Java/R generated bindings and the cross-language golden are still pending. * feat(data-layer): TickAggregator in Go, C#, Java, R (lossless push/drain) Complete F2 across all 10 languages: the C-ABI tick aggregator now uses a two-step push/drain so gap-fill candles are never lost, and the four generated bindings expose it idiomatically. - C ABI redesigned: opaque TickAggregator handle (inner aggregator + pending buffer); push consumes a tick and returns the closed-candle count, drain copies them into a count-sized caller buffer. - Go: NewTickAggregator + Push(price,size,ts) []Candle; C#: TickAggregator + Candle[] Push(...); Java: TickAggregator + Candle[] push(...); R: TickAggregator constructor + push() S3 generic returning an (n x 6) numeric matrix. - Candle output record generated per language from WickraCandle. Verified bit-identical to the native bindings (o=100 h=101 l=100 c=101 v=3 ts=0) in Go, C#, Java, and R at runtime; R passes R CMD check (pre-existing doc warnings only). WIP: cross-language data-layer golden + CHANGELOG still pending. * test(data-layer): cross-language golden for the tick aggregator + CHANGELOG gen_golden emits a deterministic tick stream (testdata/golden/data_ticks.csv) and the reference candle streams with and without gap filling (data_candles.csv, data_candles_gap.csv). Every binding replays the shared ticks through its TickAggregator and checks the candles bit-for-bit (fp tolerance) against the Rust reference: - Node / WASM / Python / Go / C# / Java / R: a dedicated parity test each. - C / C++: data_layer_test.c (compiled as both, run as ctest). The gap-fill fixture closes several candles from a single push, exercising the lossless push/drain path. Records the feature under CHANGELOG [Unreleased]. * fix(examples): rename the CSV-loader candle to WickraBar The example CSV helper (wickra_csv.h) defined its own struct WickraCandle, which now collides with the public C ABI WickraCandle (the tick aggregator output) in any example that includes both headers (backtest, multi_timeframe, the strategy examples). The public type owns the name; rename the example loader's bar to WickraBar. The generated golden_test.c is untouched (its only match was the unrelated WickraCandleVolumeOutput).
Wickra — Python
Streaming-first technical indicators for Python. pip install wickra — no
system dependencies, no C build tooling.
Wickra is a multi-language technical-analysis library with a Rust core and bindings for Python, Node.js and WASM, 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 bots and historical backtests share the exact same implementation. This package is the Python binding (PyO3); it exposes all 514 streaming-first indicators across twenty-four families.
Install
pip install wickra
Pre-built wheels ship for Linux, macOS, and Windows — there is nothing to compile and no C library to track down.
Quick start
import numpy as np
import wickra as ta
# Batch: classic TA-Lib-style usage over a whole array.
prices = np.linspace(100, 200, 1000)
rsi = ta.RSI(14)
values = rsi.batch(prices) # numpy array, NaN during warmup
# Streaming: the same indicator, fed tick by tick in O(1).
rsi = ta.RSI(14)
for price in live_feed:
value = rsi.update(price) # no recomputation over history
if value is not None and value > 70:
print("overbought")
batch(prices) and feeding the same prices through update() produce
identical values — the equivalence is enforced by the test suite.
Benchmark
Two benchmarks ship with the binding:
benchmarks/throughput.py— streaming and batch updates-per-second forSMA,ATRandMACD. This is per-binding FFI overhead (the same Rust core runs under every binding), not a cross-library ratio.benchmarks/compare_libraries.py— the cross-library comparison against TA-Lib, pandas-ta, tulipy and finta that backs the headline speedups.
maturin develop --release
python -m benchmarks.throughput
python -m benchmarks.compare_libraries # cross-library; auto-detects installed peers
See the repository BENCHMARKS.md.
Documentation
The full indicator catalogue, guides, quickstarts, and API reference live in the main repository and documentation site:
- Repository & full indicator list: https://github.com/wickra-lib/wickra
- Docs (quickstarts, cookbook, TA-Lib migration): https://docs.wickra.org
- Runnable examples:
examples/python/
Wickra ships native bindings for Python, Node.js, WASM 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.
