wwt-aligner preview
This command previews an AAS WorldWide Telescope WTML file in the WWT web client.
Synopsis๐
wwt-aligner preview [--port=PORT] {WTML-PATH}
Arguments๐
The {WTML-PATH}
argument should be the name of a WTML file, most likely one
generated by the wwt-aligner go command with its -t
(--tile
)
option.
The --port=PORT
option allows you to override the default port number for the
preview HTTP service, which is 17001. You might need to use this if you want to
run multiple preview commands simultaneously.
The generic command-line arguments are also supported.
Remarks๐
This program is somewhat limited in its funtionality because the HTTP server runs inside the alignerโs Docker container. For more a more featureful preview system, install the wwt_data_formats Python package and use the wwtdatatool preview and/or wwtdatatool serve commands. That package provides a variety of other tools that are helpful for manipulating WTML files.
