# # Incremental Updates: Keeping Market Data Fresh
#
# **Docker image**: `ml4t`
#
# **Purpose**: Walk through the update lifecycle — initial load, daily delta,
# gap detection, and a small health dashboard — so the same flow that runs
# in `data/download_all.py --update` is visible end-to-end.
#
# **Learning objectives**:
# 1. Compare full-refresh and incremental update costs.
# 2. Drive a daily delta with `DataManager.update(..., fill_gaps=False)` and
#    understand why the `fill_gaps=True` default is unsafe for OHLCV data.
# 3. Verify completeness with `GapDetector(exclude_weekends=True)`.
# 4. Render a 3-panel health dashboard (volume, freshness, issues).
#
# **Book reference**: §2.4 (storing data) — operational counterpart to the
# storage benchmarks in notebooks 20 and 21.
#
# **Prerequisites**: ml4t-data installed; live network access for Yahoo Finance.
#
# **Why incremental updates**: a full refresh re-fetches every row a symbol has ever had,
# and an incremental run fetches the sessions since the last one. On a universe of a few
# hundred symbols with a decade of history, the first is millions of rows and the second is
# hundreds, every day. Section 1 measures the ratio on the demo universe.

# ## 1. Full Refresh vs Incremental Update
#
# Let's demonstrate the difference with a concrete example.

# %% [markdown]
# ### Step 1: Initial Load (Full History)

# %%
config = StorageConfig(base_path=DEMO_DIR / "updates_demo", compression=STORAGE_COMPRESSION)
storage = HiveStorage(config=config)
dm = DataManager(storage=storage)

symbols = DEMO_SYMBOLS

print("=== Initial Load (Full History) ===")
for symbol in symbols:
    dm.load(symbol, FULL_HISTORY_START, FULL_HISTORY_END, provider=DEMO_PROVIDER)
    meta = dm.get_metadata(symbol)
    print(f"  {symbol}: stored ({meta['row_count']} rows)")

# %% [markdown]
# ### Step 2: Incremental Update (Only New Data)
#
# An update reads the last timestamp in storage, refetches a small overlap
# (`UPDATE_LOOKBACK_DAYS`) so a bar the vendor revised replaces the stored one, and
# merges everything since.
#
# **Where it stops matters more than where it starts.** Yahoo returns the
# current exchange date as a row with accumulating volume and no
# open/high/low/close. A bar with no prices is not a bar, and the provider says
# so:
#
# ```
# DataValidationError: yahoo: Column 'open' contains 1 null values
# ```
#
# `DataManager.update()` fetches to `datetime.now()`, so it asks for that row on
# every trading day and raises. `update_through_last_complete_bar` performs the
# same delta and **finds** the end of its window rather than computing one. It
# starts a day before the current exchange date — in exchange time, not UTC,
# since at 22:00 in New York the UTC date is already tomorrow — and steps back a
# day at a time while the provider refuses the window.
#
# The retreat is what a date cannot do. The placeholder row usually resolves a
# few hours after the close, and sometimes it does not: Yahoo's 2026-09-03 daily
# bar for AAPL was still `NaN, NaN, NaN, NaN, 37197362` eight and a half hours
# later, while the same window ending 2026-09-02 was clean on every column. Both
# look identical from the calendar, so the vendor has to be asked.
#
# When a window is refused, ml4t-data logs it at error level. If you see
# `Failed to fetch AAPL: yahoo: Column 'open' contains 1 null values` below and
# then a row count on the next line, that is the retreat working: the first
# window asked for a bar the vendor has not published, and the second one landed.
#
# The other reason not to call `update()` blind is its `fill_gaps=True` default:
# a calendar-unaware gap detector that treats every weekend and US holiday as a
# missing trading day and forward-fills it, inflating each symbol's row count by
# hundreds of phantom bars. For OHLCV data the right behavior is to leave
# non-trading days absent and rely on a calendar-aware completeness check
# downstream — which is what section 3 does with `GapDetector`.

# %%
print("=== Incremental Update ===")
for symbol in symbols:
    rows = update_through_last_complete_bar(
        dm, storage, symbol, provider=DEMO_PROVIDER, lookback_days=UPDATE_LOOKBACK_DAYS
    )
    print(f"  {symbol}: updated ({rows} rows)")

# %% [markdown]
# Each symbol started with 502 rows (2023-01 through 2024-12). The update
# fetches the 7-day overlap plus every session through the last complete bar and
# merges; the resulting row count equals the original 502 plus exactly the new
# trading sessions — no synthetic weekend/holiday rows, and no half-formed bar
# for the session that is still running.

# %% [markdown]
# ---
#
# ## 2. Update Strategies
#
# ml4t-data supports four strategies for different scenarios:

# %%
pl.DataFrame(
    {
        "strategy": ["INCREMENTAL", "APPEND_ONLY", "FULL_REFRESH", "BACKFILL"],
        "behavior": [
            "Fetch data after last stored timestamp",
            "Add new rows; never modify existing",
            "Re-download and replace all data",
            "Fetch missing periods inside existing range",
        ],
        "use_case": [
            "Daily updates (default, fastest)",
            "Audit-safe archives",
            "Recovery after corruption",
            "Patch holes in historical data",
        ],
    }
)

# %% [markdown]
# The `IncrementalUpdater` class provides low-level control over these strategies.
# For most use cases, `DataManager.update()` (which uses `INCREMENTAL`) is sufficient.

# %% [markdown]
# ---
#
# ## 3. Gap Detection
#
# Before running a backtest, verify that your data is complete.
# Gaps can occur from failed downloads, provider outages, or holiday handling.

# %%
gap_detector = GapDetector(exclude_weekends=True)

print("=== Gap Detection ===")
for symbol in symbols:
    key = f"equities/daily/{symbol}"
    df = storage.read(key).collect()
    gaps = gap_detector.detect_gaps(df, frequency="daily")
    if gaps:
        print(f"{symbol}: {len(gaps)} gap(s) found")
        for gap in gaps[:5]:
            print(f"  {gap['start'].date()} -> {gap['end'].date()} ({gap['size_days']} days)")
        if len(gaps) > 5:
            print(f"  ... and {len(gaps) - 5} more")
    else:
        print(f"{symbol}: complete (no gaps)")

# %% [markdown]
# `exclude_weekends=True` filters Saturdays and Sundays. US market holidays
# (MLK Day, Good Friday, Thanksgiving, etc.) still register as one-day gaps
# because the detector has no exchange calendar — fine for routine update
# health checks, but pair with a calendar-aware completeness check before
# trusting the result for backtest panels.

# ## 4. Data Health Dashboard

# In production, monitor data health across your entire universe.

#
# ## 5. The Book's Update Workflow
#
# The book's `data/download_all.py` script implements exactly this pattern
# for all asset classes. Run it with `--update` to extend datasets to the present:
#
# ```bash
# # Initial download (run once)
# python data/download_all.py
#
# # Update to present (run daily/weekly)
# python data/download_all.py --update
# ```
#
# Under the hood, `download_all.py` uses:
# - `ETFDataManager.from_config("data/etfs/config.yaml")` → `manager.update()`
# - `CryptoDataManager.from_config("data/crypto/config.yaml")` → `manager.update()`
# - `MacroDataManager.from_config("data/macro/config.yaml")` → `manager.download_treasury_yields()`
# - `FuturesDataManager.from_config("data/futures/config.yaml")` → `manager.download_all()`
#
# Each manager reads its YAML config for symbols, date ranges, and provider settings,
# then updates only what's new.
#
# ### Config-Driven Downloads
#
# The ETF config at `data/etfs/config.yaml` defines:
# ```yaml
# etfs:
#   provider: yahoo
#   start: '2006-01-01'
#   end: '2025-12-31'
#   frequency: daily
#   tickers:
#     us_equity_broad:
#       symbols: [SPY, QQQ, IWM, ...]
#     us_sectors:
#       symbols: [XLB, XLC, XLE, ...]
#     # ... 9 categories, 100 ETFs total
# ```
#
# When you run `--update` in 2026+, it extends data beyond the configured end date
# to the present — no config changes needed.

#
# ## Summary
#
# ### Key Patterns
#
# | Pattern | Command | When |
# |---------|---------|------|
# | Initial load | `dm.load(symbol, start, end)` | First time |
# | Daily update | `dm.update(symbol, lookback_days=7)` | Every trading day |
# | Gap check | `updater.detect_gaps(df, "daily")` | Before backtesting |
# | Full refresh | `UpdateStrategy.FULL_REFRESH` | After data corruption |
# | Batch update | `download_all.py --update` | Cron job |
#
# ### Production Checklist
#
# 1. **Initial download**: `python data/download_all.py` (run once, ~10 min)
# 2. **Schedule updates**: Add `download_all.py --update` to cron (daily at 6 PM)
# 3. **Monitor health**: Check freshness, gaps, and validation before backtests
# 4. **Validate data**: Use `OHLCVValidator` on every load (see `13_data_quality_framework`)
#
# ### Key Takeaways
#
# - **`lookback_days` is the operating lever**, not the symbol set. Set it once
#   to cover provider revision windows (Yahoo retro-adjusts ~5 trading days; CRSP
#   ~30) and the strategy generalizes across instruments.
# - **Gap detection runs against stored data, not stream data.** A daily cron
#   that finishes with `detect_gaps()` catches missed trading days before any
#   backtest reads stale partitions.
# - **Full refresh is the recovery path.** Use `UpdateStrategy.FULL_REFRESH`
#   when validation flags a regression; never patch a corrupted parquet in place.
# - **Configurable end dates eliminate config drift.** Symbol-list YAMLs use
#   today-as-default; `--update` extends data beyond the file's `end:` field
#   without needing edits each calendar year.
# - **Cron + idempotent CLI is the production interface.** The same
#   `download_all.py --update` works in a notebook, a CI run, and a 6 PM cron.
#
# Next: `20_storage_benchmark_file` compares file-format throughput for the
# parquet write path implicit in every update; `21_storage_benchmark_database`
# extends the same comparison to database engines.
#
# ### Cross-References

# - **DataManager basics**: `18_data_management` — fetch, batch, Universe, storage.
# - **Storage benchmarks**: `20_storage_benchmark_file` (file formats) and
#   `21_storage_benchmark_database` (database engines).
