[HELP] How to build quickfix python and ruby?

Discussion in 'App Development' started by kapitanluffy, Apr 20, 2015.

  1. I am using Python 2.6.6 and installed quickfix python using the command found in the home page

    `pip install -vvv quickfix`

    Now I am getting a bunch of errors.

    I also tried installing quickfix_ruby gem under ruby 2.1.1

    `gem install -V quickfix_ruby`

    It also failed (see log below)

    What exactly are the python and ruby implementations? Do I still need to compile the c++ version of quickfix in order to use the said implementations?

    you need to install with correct permissions

    error: /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/quickfixt11.py: Permission denied
     
  3. Thanks! Will give you an update after I installed it. Just a quick question, what does these implementations are supposed to do? Will it give me a usable quickfix library for my projects? It is not clearly defined in the quickfix engine docs. It only shows code samples for each language.
