[yt-users] About using mapserver

Fri Jul 25 01:46:21 PDT 2014

Hi Matt,

It works!!  This is pretty amazing that one can inspect his/her own data like Google map style! 
I got some questions to ask about the mapserver options,
The first question is , it seems like one can only plot the domain-center slice along x/y/z axis, or projection.
Is there any way, I can give a specific position[a,b,c] to simulation box, not using domain-center? Like yt plot did.
And the second question is anyway to plot colorbar on it? If so, how should I do it?

Many thanks,
Jia-Hung

Hi Jia-Hung,

My apologies that this is a bit confusing.  I think the easiest way to do it is to forward the 8080 port.  If your original SSH command was something like:

ssh jiahung at some.remote.system.org

what you would do is:

ssh -L 8080:localhost:8080 jiahung at some.remote.system.org

The part "-L 8080:localhost:8080" is verbatim, and will not need to be changing.  Once you then log in, and run the mapserver command, you can connect *locally* to http://127.0.0.1:8080/ and it should work.

Let me know if that works!

-Matt
