Assistant to the Kernel Manager

Utility for working with Jupyter kernelspecs.

Install

pip install a2km

Examples

a2km clone python3 python3-copy
a2km set python3-copy display_name "Super cool Python Kernel"
a2km add-env python3-copy SPARK_HOME=/path/to/spark
a2km add-argv python3-copy -- --debug
# <debug some stuff>
a2km rm-argv python3-copy -- debug

Kernelspecs for environments

a2km has an env-kernel subcommand for creating kernelspecs for your conda or virtual environments. Just pass a2km the name or path of the env, and you should be set:

conda create -n myenv ipykernel
a2km env-kernel myenv
python3 -m venv myvenv
a2km env-kernel myvenv --kind ./venv
