AX Module

The kdb-x ax module exposes components from the ax-libraries under the modules framework. The current components that have been ported across are:

• Grammar of Graphics (ggplot)
• qDoc

Prerequisites

Fusionx pcre2 is a required module, and needs to be callable via

use`kx.fusion:pcre2

The install instructions for that can be found here

Build Instructions

These instructions are for building from source, the pre-built module is available under releases.

Outside of fusionx pcre2, there are two kdb-x submodules included in this repo required for ggplot specifically. These are:

• qskia -> skia.$A.(so|dll)
• qbitops -> bitops.$A.(so|dll)

After building each from their respective directories, move the built shared libraries to the ax folder. Now it is ready to be installed.

Installation Documentation

API Documentation

The APIs match the ax-libraries APIs, with the benefit of being loadable to any namespace.

([qp;gg;qd]):use`kx.ax;         // all components
([qd]):use`kx.ax.qdoc;          // or more granularly 
([qp;gg]):use`kx.ax.graphics;

Simply replace .qp, .gg and .qd with qp, gg and qd respectively when referencing the ax-libraries API specifications (or the namespace you have chosen to assign the components to).
