PixieGateway allows PixieDust users to free their apps and charts from the confines of data science notebooks, in order to better share their work.
PixieGateway is a web application server used for sharing charts and running PixieApps as web applications. With PixieDust and PixieGateway, developers and data scientists can more easily make the analytics in their notebooks available to people who are less comfortable with Jupyter Notebooks.
From a PixieDust chart or PixieApp in a Jupyter Notebook, publishing your work via PixieGateway is as simple as clicking a button and providing the PixieGateway server location. After that, your analytics are only a URL away.
Install the pixiegateway package from PyPi. On the command line, run the following (Note: PixieGateway supports both Python 2.7 and 3.x):
$ pip install pixiegateway
Start the PixieGateway with a simple command:
$ jupyter pixiegateway --port <portnumber>
Example output:
$ jupyter pixiegateway --port 8899

See the PixieDust docs for instructions on deploying a PixieGateway server to the cloud.
Because of its dependency on the PixieDust project, PixieGateway documentation is included as part of the PixieDust docs site.
