try_get

push_through_consolidators

push_through_consolidators(
    slices: List[Slice],
    consolidators_by_symbol: Dictionary[
        Symbol, IDataConsolidator
    ],
) -> None
push_through_consolidators(
    slices: List[Slice],
    consolidators_provider: Callable[
        [Symbol], IDataConsolidator
    ],
) -> None

Loops through the specified slices and pushes the data into the consolidators. This can be used to easily warm up indicators from a history call that returns slice objects.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
slices List[Slice]

The data to send into the consolidators, likely result of a history request

required
consolidators_by_symbol Optional[Dictionary[Symbol, IDataConsolidator]]

Dictionary of consolidators keyed by symbol

None
consolidators_provider Optional[Callable[[Symbol], IDataConsolidator]]

Delegate that fetches the consolidators by a symbol

None

get_universe_data

get_universe_data(
    slices: List[Slice],
) -> Sequence[DataDictionary[BaseDataCollection]]

Gets the data dictionaries or points of the requested type in each slice

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
slices List[Slice]

The enumerable of slice

required

Returns:

Type Description
Sequence[DataDictionary[BaseDataCollection]]

An enumerable of data dictionary or data point of the requested type.

push_through

push_through(
    slices: List[Slice],
    handler: Callable[[BaseData], Any],
    data_type: Type = None,
) -> None

Loops through the specified slices and pushes the data into the consolidators. This can be used to easily warm up indicators from a history call that returns slice objects.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
slices List[Slice]

The data to send into the consolidators, likely result of a history request

required
handler Callable[[BaseData], Any]

Delegate handles each data piece from the slice

required
data_type Type

Defines the type of the data that should be pushed

None

ticks

ticks(slices: List[Slice]) -> Sequence[Ticks]

Selects into the slice and returns the Ticks that have data in order

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
slices List[Slice]

The enumerable of slice

required

Returns:

Type Description
Sequence[Ticks]

An enumerable of Ticks.

to_double_array

to_double_array(decimals: List[float]) -> List[float]

Converts the specified enumerable of decimals into a double array

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
decimals List[float]

The enumerable of decimal

required

Returns:

Type Description
List[float]

Double array representing the enumerable of decimal.

trade_bars

trade_bars(slices: List[Slice]) -> Sequence[TradeBars]

Selects into the slice and returns the TradeBars that have data in order

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
slices List[Slice]

The enumerable of slice

required

Returns:

Type Description
Sequence[TradeBars]

An enumerable of TradeBars.
