README.rst

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.
