DEPRECATED ➡️ Have a look at the official server extension example instead.

jupyterlab_api_ext

The goal is to provide an "Hello world" example of complex extension for JupyterLab using a notebook server extension.

Prerequisites

• JupyterLab

Development

For a development install (requires npm version 4 or later), do the following in the repository directory:

pip install .
jupyter serverextension enable --py jupyterlab_api_ext
npm install
npm run build
jupyter labextension link .

In addition to the traditional TypeScript package, the python handler package needs to be installed and activated. This is the reason for the pip and jupyter serverextension commands.

To rebuild the TypeScript package and the JupyterLab app:

npm run build
jupyter lab build
