qPython
=======

qPython is a Python library providing support for interprocess communication between Python and kdb+ processes, it offers:

- Synchronous and asynchronous queries
- Convenient asynchronous callbacks mechanism
- Support for kdb+ protocol and types as of kdb+ v4.0
- Uncompression of the IPC data stream
- Internal representation of data via numpy arrays (lists, complex types) and numpy data types (atoms)
- Supported on Python 3.4/3.5/3.6 and numpy 1.8+

For more details please refer to the `documentation`_.

Build binary distribution
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Instructions:

- Execute: ``python setup.py bdist``


Testing
~~~~~~~

qPython uses py.test as a test runner for unit tests.

Instructions:

- Make sure that top directory is included in the ``PYTHONPATH``
- Execute: ``py.test``
