Genenetwork implements streaming functionality that logs results from a running external process to a terminal emulator.

The streaming functionality can be divided into several sections.

The terminal emulator is implemented using the `xterm.js` library and logs results from the GN3 API.

See:

• https://github.com/xtermjs/xterm.js

This is the main endpoint for streaming:

See reference:

#### Import the `enable_streaming` Decorator

from gn3.computations.streaming import enable_streaming

#### Apply the Decorator to Your Endpoint that Runs an External Process

Note: To run the external process, use the `run_process` function, which captures the `stdout` in a file identified by the `run_id`.

@app.route('/your-endpoint')
@enable_streaming
def your_endpoint(streaming_output_file):
    run_process(command, streaming_output_file, run_id)
