noob question: how can I access to my portfolio?

[cocodrino]

I've several stocks in my portfolio and I'd like to access them using go,

right now I've the current code

account,err := ib.NewPrimaryAccountManager(engine)

if err != nil {
        fmt.Println("error getting account ",err)
    }

portfolio := account.Portfolio()

fmt.Println("Portfolio ", portfolio)

but I'm getting an empty map as portfolio

hope you can help me, thank you so much

In your case you need to wait for the request to the gateway to complete. Here is an example code you can use:

    account, err := ib.NewPrimaryAccountManager(engine)

    if err != nil {
        fmt.Println("error getting account ", err)
    }

    notify := account.Refresh()

    for {
        select {
        case <-notify:
            fmt.Printf("Portfolio\n")
            portfolio := account.Portfolio()
            for _, xc := range portfolio {
                fmt.Printf("%v\n", xc)
            }   
        }       
    }

You will get multiple calls to returned from the Manager.

Or you can use the following code if just want one time use:

    <-account.Refresh()
    fmt.Printf("Portfolio\n")
    portfolio := account.Portfolio()
    for _, xc := range portfolio {
        fmt.Printf("%v\n", xc)
    }
