Demonstration of capabilities of Data Science Notebooks.

Quick Start

Option 1: Run in virtual machine

The notebooks can be easily started via a pre-configured VirtualBox image (requires > 5GB).

1. Install VirtualBox and Vagrant (optionally on Windows: install GitShell or similar)
2. Open a command line tool in the base directory (containing Vagrantfile) and run vagrant up. Setting up the virtual machine may take a while as images for the VM and docker are downloaded.
3. Access http://localhost:8888 in your web browser

Option 2: Run in docker container

1. Install docker

2. Create & start container:

   sudo docker run -d -p 8888:8888 --name jupyter -v $(pwd):/home/jovyan/work jupyter/all-spark-notebook
   

3. Update R libraries:

   sudo docker exec -u root jupyter R -e "install.packages(c('data.table', 'dplyr', 'gridExtra', 'corrplot'), repos='http://cran.fhcrc.org')"
   

4. Access http://localhost:8888 in your web browser

To start and stop container: sudo docker start jupyter and sudo docker stop jupyter
