How to use the generated source code in IbPy.
Synopsisfrom ib.ext.EWrapper import EWrapper
from ib.ext.EClientSocket import EClientSocket
class SomeWrapper(EWrapper):
def tickPrice(self, tickerId, field, price, canAutoExecute):
... code to handle tickPrice data ...
... code to implement all other EWrapper methods ...
wrapper = SomeWrapper()
connection = EClientSocket(wrapper)
connection.eConnect('localhost', 7496, 0)
connection.reqIds()
... additional requests ...
connection.eDisconnect()DetailsIbPy is built by automatic translation of the reference Java implementation supplied by Interactive Brokers. The generated modules live in the ib.ext package, and provide the same interface as their Java counterparts. You can use IbPy just like you would use the IB Java package. To do so, you must define a subclass of EWrapper, implement all of its methods, then provide an instance of your subclass to an EClientSocket instance. After you have connected the socket instance, you can call the TWS API to request account information, market information, place orders, etc. Refer to the IbPy API documentation and to the Interactive Brokers documentation for more information. |
