| # Pipe to Browser |
| P2B allows one to pipe anything from shell console to the browser. Data being piped to the browser then is displayed in a graphical and formatted way by a "viewer" Viewers are pluggable pieces of code that know how to handle and display a stream of data. |
| |
| For example one can do: |
| |
| `` |
| echo "Hi!" | p2b google/p2b/jane/console |
| `` |
| |
| or |
| |
| `` |
| cat cat.jpg | p2b -binary google/p2b/jane/image |
| `` |
| |
| where **google/p2b/jane** is the Object name where p2b service is running in the browser. The suffix **console** or **image** specifies what viewer should be used to display the data. |
| |
| Please see the help page inside the P2B application for detailed tutorials. |
