Try to reach docker container from python script (Interactive brokers)

Asked 2021-Dec-28 at 15:55

On my synology I have this docker container running: https://registry.hub.docker.com/r/mgvazquez/ibgateway/

In the "manual" is says: "In this example you will launch the Interactive Brokers Gateway in paper mode listening on port 4001, and the VNC Server listening on port 5900"

So in the docker container I did the following port mapping:

Local port 32778 to container 5900 and local port 32776 to container 4001. My Synology Nas is 192.168.2.6.

When I connect from my local pc using vnc to 192.168.2.6:32778 it works perfectly.

QUESTION

Keeping an always-running ib_insync connection with Sanic

Asked 2021-Dec-15 at 16:52

I'm developing an API (using Sanic) which is a gateway to IB, using ib_insync This API exposes endpoints to place a new order and getting live positions, but also is in charge to update order statuses in a DB using the events of ib_insync.

My question is - is it possible to have the API connect only once to IB when it goes up, and re-using the same connection for all requests?

I'm currently connecting to IB using connectAsync on every request. And while this is working - the API will not receive events if not currently handling a request.

This is one endpoint code, for reference

ANSWER

Answered 2021-Dec-15 at 16:52

I'm not familiar with this particular connection, but yes it should be possible. Presumably the with statement is opening and closing the connection.

Instead, open and close it with a listener.

QUESTION

What does += mean in the context of event handling?

Asked 2021-Sep-24 at 14:07

In Scanner data (streaming) I can find the following statement (you can find below the full code):

scanData.updateEvent += onScanData

What does the += mean?

So, I understand that onScanData() is the event handler function that should be called when the scanData.updateEvent is fired.

But why do I have a += here and not a simple =? What get's incremented and where can I find the incremented variable later on?

Remark: to get the code snippet below running, the Interactive-Brokers software TWS has be running.

ANSWER

Answered 2021-Sep-24 at 14:06

reqScannerSubscription returns an instance of ScanDataList. Its updateEvent property is an instance of eventkit.Event. It overloads its __iadd__ method to be an alias for connect, which connects a listener to this event.

ANSWER

It appears Flask uses its own internal blocking/callback/threaded model and isn't compatible with Asyncio which this project is built on. Source: https://github.com/erdewit/ib_insync/issues/266

Required behaviour could be implemented using another framework instead of Flask. E.g. Quart.

In the case of using Quart, this code could be rewritten:

QUESTION

Asyncio script performs slowly, similar to sync script

Asked 2021-Mar-25 at 09:32

I'm writing an asyncio script to retrieve stock bars data from Interactive Brokers via the ib_insync library.

While I have the script working, the performance is similar to a serial script. I was hoping to see a drastic improvement in speed. This code will be used in production.

I am new to asyncio and feel like I'm missing an important element. Below is the full script. Would very much appriciate assistance in speeding this up. Thanks.

ANSWER

Answered 2021-Mar-25 at 09:32

Your script is running in sequence. The call to asyncio.gather() in main is useless because it is invoked with just one coroutine. You're supposed to call it with multiple coroutines to have them run in parallel.

For example, you could remove the asyncio.gather() from main (just await self.run(self.sp500(0, 100) there) and instead use it to parallelize calls to reqHistoricalDataAsync:

Seems, you are using the old ib-insync package (ver 0.9.11). Try to install the latest version ib-insync 0.9.64, that worked for me. Also, follow the group for more information: https://groups.io/g/insync

How do I make a data frame or tibble in r from data passed using a Python API in a list or environment object?

Asked 2020-Jun-05 at 23:04

Using reticulate, I'm getting data from a Python API through Interactive Brokers. I'd like to convert the data passed from my Python API to a data frame or a tibble, but I'm completely baffled about how to get it done. I also cannot figure out how to recreate the data in a reprex, so I'm just providing the text as it appears on my R console.

Here's the data that gets passed to me in the openOrders object from the Python API. It looks like this when I enter the object name at the R prompt:

Answered 2020-Jun-05 at 19:43

As discussed, as long as the Python method returns an actual Pandas data frame, reticulate will convert to R data frame. To demonstrate with reproducible example of various atomic types:
