Connect to a kdb+ service using native rust. Provides support for kdb+ connectivity using uncompressed serialization and deserialization, following the Kx Documentation.

Features

• Written natively in Rust using stable features only
• Leverages Rust's type and enum system to match cleanly with the kdb+ type system
• Outputs rsq::KObj to kdb+ readable format i.e. (`TSLA;`Q;653.20;200)
• Supports atomic types (0-19h), lists, dictionaries, and tables

Drawbacks

Since rsq is written natively in Rust, it is capable of running on any stable version of the language. This comes at the cost of not using compression/decompression, which is only possible using the proprietary Kx provided c.so. Therefore, this library is primarily for applications where compression is not needed. This would include feedhandlers, realtime consumers, etc. as kdb+ only compresses under certain conditions

Usage

Put this in your Cargo.toml: toml [dependencies] rsq = "0.1"

Example

Tickerplant Subscriber

The following code will subscribe to a vanilla tickerplant for all symbols and print the realtime data to stdout using the basic println! macro

```no_run use rsq::{Kdb, KObj, KType}; let mut kdb = Kdb::new("localhost", 5001, "username", "password");

kdb.sendasync(&KObj::List(vec![ KObj::Atom(KType::Symbol(".u.sub".tostring())), KObj::Atom(KType::Symbol("trade".tostring())), KObj::Atom(KType::Symbol("".tostring())) ])).unwrap();

loop { println!("{}",kdb.read()); }; **Output** bash (upd;trade;flip (time;sym;price;size)!((enlist 20:57:00.000);(enlist TSLA);(enlist 653.1f);(enlist 50j))) (upd;trade;flip (time;sym;price;size)!((enlist 20:59:00.000);(enlistTSLA);(enlist 653.2f);(enlist 30j))) (upd;trade;flip (time;sym;price;size)!((enlist 20:59:30.000);(enlist `TSLA);(enlist 653.1f);(enlist 100j))) ```
