BEST PRACTICES

• unit tests
• do we need setup.py / setuptools?
  • python_requires='>3.5.2',
• git hooks (python package?)
• static type checker
  • http://mypy-lang.org
  • https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/python/linting#_mypy
• gitlab badges

PERFORMANCE

• error handling
  • if the conn.copy_records_to_table() operation throws exception, the app freezes instead of crashing
  • i need to get better at handling errors in asynchronous functions, i guess
• adjust column CHECK operations to confirm bid < ask
• profiling
• use PYTHONASYNCIODEBUG
• db query performance is slow, may need individual indexes instead of just the composite unique
• how to gracefully kill consumers (equivalent of closing channels in go)?
  • right now, the queue must be filled before consumers are started,
  • that way, when the queue is empty, we know we're done
