About

đź‘‹ Hi! The code in this project showcases common scenarios for FIX applications. The project is structured as an all-in-one cli application that you can easily install on your machine and use it to explore the mechanics behind sending/receiving simple FIX messages. You can also use the cli app as a rudimentary message validator against your own FIX application.

If you are interested in modifying the examples to suit your own purposes, take a look at the sub-applications descriptions below, navigate to their READMEs to get a better sense of the typical ins and outs of FIX apps, then clone the repo and have at it, otherwise, install the cli app.

  • TradeClient is a simple FIX initiator console-based trading client
  • Executor is a FIX acceptor service that fills every limit order it receives
  • OrderMatch is a primitive matching engine and FIX acceptor service

An initiator service with a web UI for visualizing the quickfix messaging interface can be found in the trader ui repo

All examples have been ported from the original QuickFIX

Usage

This project builds a cli tool qf with 3 commands corresponding to each example. The generalized usage is of the form:

qf [GLOBAL FLAGS] [COMMAND] [COMMAND FLAGS] [ARGS]

The examples are meant to be run in pairs- the TradeClient as a client of either the Executor or OrderMatcher. By default, the examples will load the default configurations named after the example apps provided in the config/ root directory. i.e., running qf tradeclient will load the config/tradeclient.cfg configuration. Each example can be run with a custom configuration as a command line argument (qf tradeclient my_trade_client.cfg).

Installation

In order to use this awesome tool, you'll need to get it on your machine!

From Homebrew

If you're on macOS, the easiest way to get the examples is through the homebrew tap.

brew tap quickfixgo/qf
brew install qf

Run the command qf help in your shell for the list of possible example subcommands.

From Release

  1. Head over to the official releases page
  2. Determine the appropriate distribution for your operating system (mac | windows | linux)
  3. Download and untar the distribution. Shortcut for macs:
curl -sL https://github.com/quickfixgo/examples/releases/download/v{VERSION}/qf_{VERSION}_Darwin_x86_64.tar.gz | tar zx
  1. Move the binary into your local $PATH.
  2. Run the command qf help in your shell for the list of possible example subcommands.

From Source

To build and run the examples, you will first need Go installed on your machine

Next, clone this repository with git clone git@github.com:quickfixgo/examples.git. This project uses go modules, so you just need to type make build. This will compile the examples executable in the ./bin dir in your local copy of the repo. If this exits with exit status 0, then everything is working! You may need to pull the module deps with go mod download.

make build

Run the command ./bin/qf help in your shell for the list of possible example subcommands.

From Snapcraft

Linux OS users can install the examples through the snap store.

sudo snap install quickfixgo-qf

Run the command qf help in your shell for the list of possible example subcommands.

From Scoop

Windows users can install the examples via the Scoop package manager.

scoop bucket add auth0 https://github.com/auth0/scoop-auth0-cli.git
scoop install auth0

Run the command qf help in your shell for the list of possible example subcommands.

Docker Image

The quickfix examples are also available as a docker image here. To pull and run the latest, use the following command:

docker run -it quickfixgo/qf

To run a specific example, you can do something like this:

docker run -it -p 5001:5001 quickfixgo/qf ordermatch

Note: The docker image comes pre-loaded with the default configs. If you want to supply your own, you can specify a volume binding to your local directory in the run command.
