Core common functionality of Jupyter projects.
This package contains base application classes and configuration inherited by other projects. It doesn't do much on its own.
The Jupyter Contributor Guides provide extensive information on contributing code or documentation to Jupyter projects. The limited instructions below for setting up a development environment are for your convenience.
You'll need Python and pip
on the search path. Clone the Jupyter Core git repository to your computer, for example in /my/projects/jupyter_core
.
Now create an editable install
and download the dependencies of code and test suite by executing:
cd /my/projects/jupyter_core/
pip install -e .
pip install -r dev-requirements.txt
py.test
The last command runs the test suite to verify the setup. During development, you can pass filenames to py.test
, and it will execute only those tests.
The documentation of Jupyter Core is generated from the files in docs/
using Sphinx. Instructions for setting up Sphinx with a selection of optional modules are in the Documentation Guide. You'll also need the make
command.
For a minimal Sphinx installation to process the Jupyter Core docs, execute:
pip install sphinx
The following commands build the documentation in HTML format and check for broken links:
cd /my/projects/jupyter_core/docs/
make html linkcheck
Point your browser to the following URL to access the generated documentation:
file:///my/projects/jupyter_core/docs/_build/html/index.html
