How to connect to TickerPlant

Open hzadonis opened this issue 8 years ago • 3 comments

PyRFA is a very nice tool that make a easy operation to TREP to get realtime data. But I have a question: How to connect the FeedHandler developed by PyRFA to the TickerPlant? Thank for share your suggestions!

We are not familiar with TickerPlant product. I guess it depends in TickerPlant API or data importing functionality. I am pretty sure it is likely possible to inject data to TickerPlant -- one way or another.

Thanks, wiwat. TickerPlant is a logical process running in KDB+, which retrieves data from Feed Handler(in this case, developed by PyRFA), and passes to RDB or other subscribers. I'm trying qpython to make connection and do the workflow. Anyway, thanks for your attention.

I think you can build a PyRFA consumer to get the data from TREP and have a separate PyRFA "interactive provider" object to provide data to KDB+. Basically PyRFA interactive provider is a server which a client can connect to.

TREP --> [PyRFA consumer + PyRFA interactive provider] <-- KDB+
