akka-stream-ib-tws

An akka-stream application that integrates with the Interactive Brokers Trader Workstation API

Features

• Boilerplate ADT for all EWrapper methods (see Events.scala).
• Boilerplate ADT for most requests from EClientSocket (see Requests.scala).

Limitations

• At the moment not all EClientSocket methods have an accompanying Request ADT entry: Only EClientSocket methods starting with req are implemented. PRs for the outstanding methods are very welcome.
• No Tests(!)

Usage

• Clone this repo
• Add the IB TWS Jar to the lib directory
• Configure TWS to allow API access
• ?????
• PROFIT

Example

The following graph will subscribe to account updates (Main.scala in the repo).

object Main extends App {

  implicit val system = ActorSystem("Main")
  implicit val materializer = ActorMaterializer()

  val log = LoggerFactory.getLogger(getClass)
  val host = "localhost"

  val nextValidId: AtomicInteger = new AtomicInteger(0)

  val graph = RunnableGraph.fromGraph(GraphDSL.create() { implicit b =>
    import GraphDSL.Implicits._

    val readerSignal = new EJavaSignal()
    val (source, wrapper) = IBTws.source
    val socket: EClientSocket = new EClientSocket(wrapper, readerSignal)
    val sink = IBTws.sink(socket)

    socket.eConnect(host, 7497, 0)
    socket.startAPI()
    IBTws.startReader(socket, readerSignal)

    val accountUpdates: Source[IBRequest, NotUsed] =
      Source.single(
        Requests.AccountUpdates(subscribe = true, "DU533521")
      ).delay(20.seconds)

    val ibEvents = b.add(source)
    val ibCommands = b.add(sink)

    accountUpdates ~> ibCommands

    ibEvents ~> Sink.foreach[IBEvent]({
      case m: UpdateAccountValue =>
        log.info(s"Account Update: $m")
      case _ =>
    })
    ClosedShape
  })

  graph.run()
}
