This also officially moves the code base to using `PyQt6` including all
necessary reference changes and enum namespace path moves.
Also includes a small `.ui.order_mode` fix to cancel any
`Order.price <= 0` and a name error fix with logging using `msg`,
which is already used for the input order msg..
Since we can and want to eventually allow remote control of pretty much
all UIs, this drafts out a new `.ui._remote_ctl` module with a new
`@tractor.context` called `remote_annotate()` which simply starts a msg
loop which allows for (eventual) initial control of a `SelectRect`
through IPC msgs.
Remote controller impl deats:
- make `._display.graphics_update_loop()` set a `._remote_ctl._dss:
dict` for all chart actor-global `DisplayState` instances which can
then be controlled from the `remote_annotate()` handler task.
- also stash any remote client controller `tractor.Context` handles in
a module var for broadband IPC cancellation on any display loop
shutdown.
- draft a further global map to track graphics object instances since
likely we'll want to support remote mutation where the client can use
the `id(obj): int` key as an IPC handle/uuid.
- just draft out a client-side `@acm` for now: `open_annots_client()` to
be filled out in up coming commits.
UI component tweaks in support of the above:
- change/add `SelectRect.set_view_pos()` and `.set_scene_pos()` to allow
specifying the rect coords in either of the scene or viewbox domains.
- use these new apis in the interaction loop.
- add a `SelectRect.add_to_view()` to avoid having annotation client
code knowing "how" a graphics obj needs to be added and can instead
just pass only the target `ChartView` during init.
- drop all the status label updates from the display loop since they
don't really work all the time, and probably it's not a feature we
want to keep in the longer term (over just console output and/or using
the status bar for simpler "current state / mkt" infos).
- allows a bit of simplification of `.ui._fsp` method APIs to not pass
around status (bar) callbacks as well!
Since there's a growing list of top level mods which are more or less
utils/tools for working with the runtime; begin to move them into a new
subpkg starting with a new `.toolz.debug`.
Start with,
- a new `open_crash_handller()` for doing breakpoints around blocks that
might error.
- move in what was `piker._profile` into `.toolz.profile` and adjust all
importing appropriately.
This finally seems to mitigate all the "smearing" and "jitter" artifacts
when using Qt's "coordinate cache" graphics-mode:
- whenever we're in a mouse interaction (as per calls to
`ChartView.start/signal_ic()`) we simply disable the caching mode (set
`.NoCache` until the interaction is complete.
- only do this (for now) during a pan since it doesn't seem to be an
issue when zooming?
- ensure disabling all `Viz.graphics` and `.ds_graphics` to be agnostic
to any case where there's both a zoom and a pan simultaneously (not
that it's easy to do manually XD) as well as solving the problem
whenever an OHLC series is in traced-and-downsampled mode (during low
zoom).
Impl deatz:
- rename `ChartView._ic` -> `._in_interact: trio.Event`
- add `.ChartView._interact_stack: ExitStack` which we use to open.
and close the `FlowGraphics.reset_cache()` mngrs from mouse handlers.
- drop all the commented per-subtype overrides for `.cache_mode: int`.
- write up much better doc strings for `FlattenedOHLC` and `StepCurve`
including some very basic ASCII-art diagrams.
Despite there being artifacts when interacting, the speedups when
cross-hair-ing are just too good to ignore. We can always play with
disabling caches when interaction takes place much like we do with feed
pausing.
Curve-path colouring and cache mode settings are used (and can thus be
factored out of) all child types; this moves them into the parent type's
`.__init__()` and adjusts all sub-types match:
- the bulk was moved out of the `Curve.__init__()` including all
previous commentary around cache settings.
- adjust `BarItems` to use a `NoCache` mode and instead use the
`last_step_pen: pg.Pen` and `._pen` inside it's `.pain()` instead of
defining functionally duplicate vars.
- adjust all (transitive) calls to `BarItems` to use the new kwargs
names.
In the case where the last-datum-graphic hasn't been created yet, simply
return a `None` from this method so the caller can choose to ignore the
output. Further, drop `.px_width()` since it makes more sense defined on
`Viz` as well as the previously commented `BarItems.x_uppx()` method.
Also, don't round the `.x_uppx()` output since it can then be used when
< 1 to do x-domain scaling during high zoom usage.
Factor some common methods into the parent type:
- `.x_uppx()` for reading the horizontal units-per-pixel.
- `.x_last()` for reading the "closest to y-axis" last datum coordinate
for zooming "around" during mouse interaction.
- `.px_width()` for computing the max width of any curve in view in
pixels.
Adjust all previous derived `pg.GraphicsObject` child types to now
inherit from this new parent and in particular enable proper `.x_uppx()`
support to `BarItems`.
Ensure `.boundingRect()` calcs and `.draw_last_datum()` do geo-sizing
based on source data instead of presuming some `1.0` unit steps in some
spots; we need this to support an epoch index as is needed for overlays.
Further, clean out a bunch of old bounding rect calc code and add some
commented code for trying out `QRectF.united()` on the path + last datum
curve segment. Turns out that approach is slower as per eyeballing the
added profiler points.
Instead of using a bunch of internal logic to modify low level paint-able
elements create a `Curve` lineage that allows for graphics "style"
customization via a small set of public methods:
- `Curve.declare_paintables()` to allow setup of state/elements to be
drawn in later methods.
- `.sub_paint()` to allow painting additional elements along with the
defaults.
- `.sub_br()` to customize the `.boundingRect()` dimensions.
- `.draw_last_datum()` which is expected to produce the paintable
elements which will show the last datum in view.
Introduce the new sub-types and load as necessary in
`ChartPlotWidget.draw_curve()`:
- `FlattenedOHLC`
- `StepCurve`
Reimplement all `.draw_last()` routines as a `Curve` method
and call it the same way from `Flow.update_graphics()`
We're doing this in `Flow.update_graphics()` atm and probably are going
to in general want custom graphics objects for all the diff curve / path
types. The new flows work seems to fix the bounding rect width calcs to
not require the ad-hoc extra `+ 1` in the step mode case; before it was
always a bit hacky anyway. This also tries to add a more correct
bounding rect adjustment for the `._last_line` segment.
A bit hacky to get all graphics types working but this is hopefully the
first step toward moving all the generic update logic into `Renderer`
types which can be themselves managed more compactly and cached per
uppx-m4 level.
Starts a module for grouping together all our `QPainterpath` related
generation and data format operations for creation of fast curve
graphics. To start, drops `FastAppendCurve.downsample()` and moves
it to a new `._pathops.xy_downsample()`.
Mostly just dropping old commented code for "step mode" format
generation. Always slice the tail part of the input data and move to the
new `ms_threshold` in the `pg` profiler'
This took longer then i care to admit XD but it definitely adds a huge
speedup and with only a few outstanding correctness bugs:
- panning from left to right causes strange trailing artifacts in the
flows fsp (vlm) sub-plot but only when some data is off-screen on the
left but doesn't appear to be an issue if we keep the `._set_yrange()`
handler hooked up to the `.sigXRangeChanged` signal (but we aren't
going to because this makes panning way slower). i've got a feeling
this is a bug todo with the device coordinate cache stuff and we may
need to report to Qt core?
- factoring out the step curve logic from
`FastAppendCurve.update_from_array()` (un)fortunately required some
logic branch uncoupling but also meant we needed special input controls
to avoid things like redraws and curve appends for special cases,
this will hopefully all be better rectified in code when the core of
this method is moved into a renderer type/implementation.
- the `tina_vwap` fsp curve now somehow causes hangs when doing erratic
scrolling on downsampled graphics data. i have no idea why or how but
disabling it makes the issue go away (ui will literally just freeze
and gobble CPU on a `.paint()` call until you ctrl-c the hell out of
it). my guess is that something in the logic for standard line curves
and appends on large data sets is the issue?
Code related changes/hacks:
- drop use of `step_path_arrays_from_1d()`, it was always a bit hacky
(being based on `pyqtgraph` internals) and was generally hard to
understand since it returns 1d data instead of the more expected (N,2)
array of "step levels"; instead this is now implemented (uglily) in
the `Flow.update_graphics()` block for step curves (which will
obviously get cleaned up and factored elsewhere).
- add a bunch of new flags to the update method on the fast append
curve: `draw_last: bool`, `slice_to_head: int`, `do_append: bool`,
`should_redraw: bool` which are all controls to aid with previously
mentioned issues specific to getting step curve updates working
correctly.
- add a ton of commented tinkering related code (that we may end up
using) to both the flow and append curve methods that was written as
part of the effort to get this all working.
- implement all step curve updating inline in `Flow.update_graphics()`
including prepend and append logic for pre-graphics incremental step
data maintenance and in-view slicing as well as "last step" graphics
updating.
Obviously clean up commits coming stat B)
More or less this improves update latency like mad. Only draw data in
view and avoid full path regen as much as possible within a given
(down)sampling setting. We now support append path updates with in-view
data and the *SPECIAL CAVEAT* is that we avoid redrawing the whole curve
**only when** we calc an `append_length <= 1` **even if the view range
changed**. XXX: this should change in the future probably such that the
caller graphics update code can pass a flag which says whether or not to
do a full redraw based on it knowing where it's an interaction based
view-range change or a flow update change which doesn't require a full
path re-render.
