running ``ib`` gateway in ``docker`` ------------------------------------ We have a config based on the (now defunct) image from "waytrade": https://github.com/waytrade/ib-gateway-docker To startup this image with our custom settings simply run the command:: docker compose up And you should have the following socket-available services: - ``x11vnc1@127.0.0.1:3003`` - ``ib-gw@127.0.0.1:4002`` You can attach to the container via a VNC client without password auth. SECURITY STUFF!?!?! ------------------- Though "``ib``" claims they host filter connections outside localhost (aka ``127.0.0.1``) it's probably better if you filter the socket at the OS level using a stateless firewall rule:: ip rule add not unicast iif lo to 0.0.0.0/0 dport 4002 We will soon have this baked into our own custom image but for now you'll have to do it urself dawgy.
