This script, and the associated changes, help avoid strange problems
with Python 3, pdbpp, and concurrent.futures related to ordering and
side effects from .pth files.
Without them, under certain, possibly nondeterministic circumstances,
installing zipline's dependencies in Python 3 will cause the
concurrent.futures backport to shadow the stdlib module, which breaks
pip (among other things) with a SyntaxError.
This commit adds initial support for international markets in the Pipeline API
via addition of the concept of "domains".
Significant changes on this branch include:
- Added `zipline.pipeline.domain` and the `Domain` interface.
- Added several canonical domain definitions:
- GENERIC
- US_EQUITIES
- CA_EQUITIES
- GB_EQUITIES
- Added `zipline.country` as a place to define canonical country code names.
- Made `PipelineLoader` an interface and added new `domain` parameter to
signature of `load_adjusted_array`.
- Added a new system for "generic" and "specialized" DataSet and BoundColumn
objects.
- Added a new system for inferring a domain from a pipeline that contains a mix
of generic and non-generic terms.
- Reworked the built-in pricing dataset. USEquityPricing dataset is now a
specialized version of a generic EquityPricing dataset, and most built-in
factors are now implemented in terms of EquityPricing rather than
USEquityPricing.
- Removed `zipline.data.us_equity_pricing`.
- Moved BcolzDailyBar{Reader,Writer} to `zipline.data.bcolz_daily_bars`.
- Moved SQLiteAdjustment{Reader,Writer} to `zipline.data.adjustments`.
New dependencies added as part of this work:
- iso3166 (for canonical country code definitions)
- python-interface (for strict interface definitions).
See https://github.com/quantopian/zipline/issues/2265 for a full description of
the design for domains.
