Purpose

Allow JupyterLab user to save content to Oracle Object Storage.

3 Steps to Config

Step 1: Install this package

# You may want to install it in the virtualenv you created for your JupyterLab
pip install caspercm

Step 2: Config your jupyterlab

# Edit your jupyterlab config file
# e.g. vi ~/.jupyter/jupyter_notebook_config.py
# add following

from caspercm import JupyterCasperCM
c.NotebookApp.contents_manager_class = JupyterCasperCM
c.NotebookApp.JupyterCasperCM.fstab = '/root/.oci/fstab.json'

The example above shows your fstab.json is located at /root/.oci/fstab.json, it can be placed other places as well.

Step 3: Config your fstab.json

Here is an example of fstab.json

{
    "/": {
        "namespace": "bmcdw",
        "bucket": "beta_jupyterlab_notebook",
        "prefix": "stonezhong/",
        "api_config": "/root/.oci/config"
    },
    "/public": {
        "namespace": "bmcdw",
        "bucket": "beta_jupyterlab_notebook",
        "prefix": "public/",
        "api_config": "/root/.oci/config"
    }
}

• Your notebooks root directory (aka /) is at stonezhong/ of bucket beta_jupyterlab_notebook in oci namespace bmcdw
• Your notebooks directory /public is at public/ of bucket beta_jupyterlab_notebook in oci namespace bmcdw
• For each mount point, told system your oci config is at /root/.oci/config

Here is how /root/.oci/config looks like: (the content is just an example, secret part has been altered)

[DEFAULT]
key_file=/root/.oci/oci_api_key.pem
region=us-phoenix-1
tenancy=ocid1.tenancy.oc1..xyz
user=ocid1.user.oc1..xyz
fingerprint=00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00

Note, it points to key file /root/.oci/oci_api_key.pem which shuold exist.
