The jovian
python library can be installed using the pip
package manager. To install jovian
via terminal or command line, run:
pip install jovian --upgrade
You can also install the jovian
library directly within a Jupyter Notebook, by running the following command in a code cell:
!pip install jovian --upgrade
.. caution::
If you get a ``Permission denied`` error, try installing with sudo permission (on Linux/Mac).
.. code-block::
$ sudo pip install jovian --upgrade
Another alternative is to try installing with the ``--user`` flag, but you'll need to ensure that the target directory is added to your system ``PATH``.
.. code-block::
$ pip install jovian --upgrade --user
Once the installation is complete, you can start uploading Jupyter notebooks to Jovian.
Configuration (for Jovian Pro users only)
If you are a Jovian Pro user, run the following commands on the terminal (or command line) to connect the jovian
library with your company's internal Jovian Pro site:
jovian configure
You can also do this directly within a Jupyter notebook, by executing the following inside a code cell:
import jovian
jovian.configure()
The above command prompts for the following information:
-
Organization ID: The Organization ID provided by your company for authentication. E.g. if you are accessing Jovian Pro at https://mycompany.jovian.ml , your organization ID is
mycompany
. -
API key: You'll get the API key when you're logged in to your organization's Jovian Pro site. By clicking on the API key button, the key will be copied to clipboard.
.. note::
You need to run ``jovian configure`` or ``jovian.configure()`` only once after installation. Your credentials are cached in the ``~/.jovian`` directory on your computer. You can run ``jovian reset`` to clear this configuration.
