# Interactive Brokers Gateway Docker
IB Gateway running in Docker with [IB Controller](https://github.com/ib-controller/ib-controller/) and VNC
* TWS Gateway: v974.4g
* IB Controller: v3.2.0
### Docker Hub image
* https://hub.docker.com/r/mvberg/ib-gateway-docker
### Getting Started
```bash
> git clone
> cd ib-gateway-docker
> docker build .
> docker-compose up
```
#### Expected output
```bash
Creating ibgatewaydocker_tws_1 ...
Creating ibgatewaydocker_tws_1 ... done

```
You will now have the IB Gateway app running on port 4003 and VNC on 5901.
See [docker-compose.yml](docker-compose.yml) for configuring VNC password, accounts and trading mode.
Please do not open your box to the internet.
### Testing VNC
* localhost:5901
### Demo Accounts
It seems that all of the `demo` accounts are dead for good:
* edemo
* fdemo
* pmdemo
### Troubleshooting
Sometimes, when running in non-daemon mode, you will see this:
```java
Exception in thread "main" java.awt.AWTError: Can't connect to X11 window server using ':0' as the value of the DISPLAY variable.
```
You will have to remove the container `docker rm container_id` and run `docker-compose up` again.
