If you see iqfeed service running. it means it all good.

You can also see a very chatty version of whats going on with iqfeed client if you tail /var/log/iqfeed/IQConnectLog.txt or /var/log/iqfeed/pyiqfeed-admin-conn.log.

SideNote: As of right now for some reason not known to me the iqfeed client will crash every few days or hours :( I have worked around it by building the docker container health check script that monitors for wine crashes in the wine.log file and will mark the conatainer as unhealthy. Once this is done the container can be restarted by an external service, most popular ways are either docker stacks or docker-autoheal. I use autoheal becasue its simpler and good enough for my usecase. See docker-compose.yml file for details.

docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml up -d autoheal

This is fairly a opinionated configuration based on my own needs, if you dont like it fork it!
