source .cellxgene-gateway/bin/activate
2. Install requirements with
pip install -r requirements.txt
3. Prepare a folder with .h5ad files, for example
mkdir cellxgene_data
wget https://github.com/chanzuckerberg/cellxgene/raw/master/example-dataset/pbmc3k.h5ad -O ../cellxgene_data/pbmc3k.h5ad

pip install -r requirements.txt
```
Then copy run.sh.example to run.sh and edit
