Code Examples

Polars

Casting is enums, categoricals etc is not essential, but may speed up parsing. Swapping int for pl.UInt16, pl.Int32 would also speed up parsing. However some of the datatypes are inferred, so they may be wrong.

This code deduplicates for you. Deduplication is normally only required across multiple months.

This code assumes that all columns are present, which may not be true for older files.

import polars as pl
import polars.selectors as cs

# e.g. "2029/03/15 00:05:00"
dt_s_fmt = "%Y/%m/%d %H:%M:%S"

csv_paths = ["SOMEFILE.CSV", "OTHERFILE.CSV"]

lf = (
    pl.concat(
        [
            pl.scan_csv(
                csv_path,  # must be unzipped beforehand
                skip_rows=1,  # skip the header
                infer_schema=False,  # much faster
            )
            .filter(cs.by_index(0) == "D")  # drop the footer
            .select(~cs.by_index(range(4)))  # drop metadata columns
            for csv_path in csv_paths
        ],
        how="diagonal_relaxed",
    )
    .with_columns(
        pl.col("OFFERDATETIME").str.strptime(pl.Datetime, dt_s_fmt),
    )
    .cast({"PARTICIPANTID": pl.Categorical, "FILENAME": str})
    # Deduplicate
    # We want one row per ['OFFERDATETIME', 'PARTICIPANTID']
    .unique(subset=["OFFERDATETIME", "PARTICIPANTID"], keep="any")

Visibility: Private

This table is not available in the public monthly MMSDM archive. Is is only available to registered market participants over FTP inside a VPN.

Deduplication and PDR Loader Configuration

The primary keys are:

The transaction type is "insert", which means that you will usually not see duplicate data. If you do, you can deduplicate based on the primary keys, without sorting first. Rows from different files with the same primary keys should have the same values.

PDR Loader configuration is:

Report Name Report Subtype Version
OFFER MTPASA_OFFERFILETRK 1

This means that the CSV files start with metadata columns:

I,OFFER,MTPASA_OFFERFILETRK,1,...
D,OFFER,MTPASA_OFFERFILETRK,1,...
