To use the Preview server for displaying live plots and thumbnails:

Start kafka (MacOS instructions)

brew install kafka
brew services start kafka
brew services start zookeeper
brew services list  # to make sure both services have been started

Start the queueserver RE-manager with kafka.

start-re-manager --kafka_server 127.0.0.1:9092 --kafka_topic widgets_test.bluesky.documents

Start the queueserver HTTP server.

uvicorn bluesky_queueserver.server.server:app --host localhost --port 60610

Set environment variable for preview directory.

export THUMBNAIL_DIRECTORY=${TMPDIR}/bluesky_widgets_example

Start the preview server to serve the produced images.

uvicorn BlueskyPreviewServer:app

The client proxies to the server on port 60610, if it is running on a different port you will need to change that in the package.json (or just switch the server port to match using --port 60610 when launching it).

The queue server API prefix is set up to default to /qs when developing against pods or a deployed version, this can be overridden by creating a file in the root of the source tree .env.local where you define overrides to the entries in the .env file.

See the documentation on details about the variables.
