-Files previously at code.kx.com/wsvn/kx/kdb+tick
+The goal of this code is to demonstrate how to spin up an instance of a kdb+ data pipeline in a docker container.
+It's currently a piece of learning work towards an easily deployable low footprint installation. 
 
+As well as taking the tick code directly, this repo also relies on the work done dockerising embedPy and uses this as a base image for the Q installation.
 
-## Hot-linking
+Forked from https://github.com/KxSystems/kdb-tick
+Using a base build from https://github.com/KxSystems/embedPy
 
-You are welcome to download and use this code according to the terms of the licence. 
 
-Kx Systems recommends you do not link your application to this repository, 
-which would expose your application to various risks:
+# Tick changes
 
-- This is not a high-availability hosting service
-- Updates to the repo may break your application 
-- Code refactoring might return 404s to your application
+The base of the program is an almost vanilla installation of kdb+tick.
+The following changes have been made (so far): -
+-  time column is expected to be `timestamp` instead of `timespan`.
+- Added sym.q containing trade and quote tables
+- Added feed.q to publish some data
 
-Instead, download code and subject it to the version control and regression testing 
-you use for your application.
+In order to start up the system you can run the following commands
+(TODO - TP port is currently hardcoded into the feed)
+
+```
+cd $QTICKHOME/kdb-tick
+nohup q tick.q sym  .  -p 5010	< /dev/null > $QTICKHOME/kdb-tick/tick.log 2>&1 &  
+nohup q tick/r.q :5010 -p 5011	< /dev/null > $QTICKHOME/kdb-tick/rdb.log 2>&1 &
+nohup q sym            -p 5012	< /dev/null > $QTICKHOME/kdb-tick/hdb.log 2>&1 &
+nohup q tick/feed.q  < /dev/null > $QTICKHOME/kdb-tick/feed.log 2>&1 &
+```
+
+# Dockerized q
+
+First stage in development is to get embedPy running
+I created my own build locally for this using the instructions
+
+I also created an environment file so that I could build and run the application easily.
+This creates auto answers for the license questions and I've included an example here.
+
+to run a stock docker container using the environment files, create `mytick.env` from the example file and run
+
+```docker run --env-file mytick.env -ti kxsys/embedPy```
+
+```
+bash-3.2$ docker run --env-file mytick.env  -ti kxsys/embedpy

+
+# Dockerized Tick
+
+
+Finally to merge the tick system and docker container, a new Dockerfile has been introduced.
+
+This file copies the tick system to the appropriate folder & also has a shell script to run processes.
+
+In order to run this up, first build the image and then run the container
+
+```
+docker build -t kdb-tick -f docker/Dockerfile .
+docker run --env-file mytick.env -p 5010:5010 -p 5011:5011 -ti kdb-tick
