TA-Lib
About rust lib
About rust lib: I had seen Contact mario4tier on github if interested. i wonder the progression about it.
tks a lot
Sorry no good news.
Unless someone shows up to lead this, it is unlikely to happen within 2024.
Personally, I should have enough experience with Rust by ~2025 (I am actively gaining experience with Rust app with another project while 2024).
@mario4tier Hello, I have extensive experience in Rust development. My idea is to wrap the TALIB library through Rust FFI. How can I contribute Rust code to talib?
Sure. You are welcome to contribute with a PR.
For FFI, ideally your change would be isolated into its own directory, therefore making it easier for others to review and merge "without worrying".
As an alternative to FFI, consider that TA-Lib are fairly simple array processing functions. It would be great to tweak tool/gencode to make the source code compatible to native Rust (in same way that the existing code builds in Java, C, C++ and managed C++ after running through a C preprocessor). It is more work, but a more solid contribution that should reward you for the next 25 years :smile: If you can pull this off... you would likely become an admin for TA-Lib (can more freely merge and maintain it).
One way or another, you are OK to proceed with your FFI solution (nobody else working on this approach right now).
