======================
Create a static viewer
======================

A static viewer is a brain viewer that exists permanently on a filesystem

The viewer is stored in a directory that stores html, javascript, data, etc

The viewer directory must be hosted by a server such as nginx


.. code-block:: default


    import cortex

    import numpy as np
    np.random.seed(1234)

    # gather data Volume
    volume = cortex.Volume.random(subject='S1', xfmname='fullhead')

    # select path for static viewer on disk
    viewer_path = '/path/to/store/viewer'

    # create viewer
    cortex.webgl.make_static(outpath=viewer_path, data=volume, recache=True)

    # a webserver such as nginx can then be used to host the static viewer
