Docker Demo Images

Herein lies the Dockerfiles for both jupyter/demo (currently used by tmpnb.org) and jupyter/minimal.

Creating sample notebooks does not require knowledge of Docker, just the IPython/Jupyter notebook. Submit PRs against the notebooks/ folder to get started.

Organization

The big demo image pulls in resources from

• notebooks/ for example notebooks
• common/ for core components used by minimal and demo

Community Notebooks

tmpnb.org is a great resource for communities looking for a place to host their public IPython/Jupyter notebooks. If your group has a notebook you want to share, just fork this repository and add a directory for your community in the notebooks/communities folder and place your notebook in the new directory (e.g. notebooks/communities/north_pole_julia_group/). Commit and push your changes to Github and send us a pull request.

The following tips will make sure your notebooks work well on tmpnb.org and work well for the users of your notebook.

• Create your notebook using IPython 3.x to ensure your notebook is v4 format.
• If adding a notebook that was a slideshow, make sure to set the "Cell Toolbar" setting back to None.
• If you are creating your notebook on tmpnb.org, make sure you're aware of the 10 minute idle time notebook reaper. If you walk away from your notebook for too long, you can lose it!

Building the Docker Images

There is a Makefile to make life a bit easier here:

make images

Alternatively, feel free to build them directly:

jupyter/demo

docker build -t jupyter/demo .

jupyter/minimal

docker build -t jupyter/minimal common/
