# Installing cellxgene
Cellxgene has two parts:
* [`cellxgene`](launch) is the main explorer application, which takes an already-processed `h5ad` file as input. This is installed by default.
* [`cellxgene prepare`](prepare) provides auxiliary functionality for preparing your dataset. This is *not* installed by default.
## Requirements
You'll need **python 3.6+** and **Google Chrome**.
- [`cellxgene`](launch) is the main explorer application, which takes an already-processed `h5ad` file as input. This is installed by default.
- [`cellxgene prepare`](prepare) provides auxiliary functionality for preparing your dataset. This is _not_ installed by default.
## Requirements
You'll need **python 3.6+** and an up-to-date version of **Google Chrome**.
The web UI is tested on OSX and Windows using Chrome, and the python CLI is tested on OSX and Ubuntu (via WSL/Windows).
It should work on other platforms, but if you run into trouble let us know.

## Using docker
Build the image
`docker build . -t cellxgene`
Run the container and mount data
`docker run -v "$PWD/example-dataset/:/data/" -p 5005:5005 cellxgene launch --host 0.0.0.0 data/pbmc3k.h5ad`
Build the image
```
docker build . -t cellxgene
```
Run the container and mount data (change data location, `--port` and `--host` parameters as needed)
```
docker run -v "$PWD/example-dataset/:/data/" -p 5005:5005 cellxgene launch --host 0.0.0.0 data/pbmc3k.h5ad
```
You will need to use `--host 0.0.0.0` to have the container listen to incoming requests from the browser
