fabric-jumpstart 0.1.1

Get started quickly with pre-built solutions, tutorials, demos, and accelerators—automated, high-quality, and open-source.

⚡️Fabric Jumpstart

Fabric Jumpstart accelerates Microsoft Fabric adoption with ready-to-run accelerators, demos, and tutorials that install directly into your workspace in minutes via fabric-cicd.

What is a Jumpstart?

• A curated, tested Fabric solution (data, notebooks, pipelines, reports, supporting assets, etc.) that you can deploy end-to-end with one call.
• Each Jumpstart is self-contained: data is bundled or generated for you, and post-install notebooks guide any manual configuration.
• Discover available Jumpstarts at https://fabric.jumpstart.microsoft.com ( ⚠️ UNDER CONSTRUCTION ⚠️ ).

Install the Library

Requirements: Python 3.10–3.12 and access to a Microsoft Fabric workspace.

pip install fabric-jumpstart

List and Install a Jumpstart

Run inside a Fabric notebook (or any Python environment with Fabric credentials):

import fabric_jumpstart as jumpstart

jumpstart.list()  # renders an interactive catalog

# Copy the install command from the catalog, past in another cell and run!
jumpstart.install("spark-structured-streaming")

Notes

• workspace_id is optional when you run in a Fabric notebook; it auto-detects the current workspace. Specify to deploy to another target workspace.
• install() accepts extras like item_prefix and unattended=True if you prefer console logs over HTML output.

Handling Name Conflicts

If items with the same name already exist in your workspace, Fabric Jumpstart will detect conflicts and provide resolution options:

1. Overwrite existing items:

   jumpstart.install("spark-structured-streaming", overwrite=True)
   

2. Auto-generate a prefix to avoid conflicts:

   jumpstart.install("spark-structured-streaming", auto_prefix_on_conflict=True)
   

   This generates a prefix like js3_sss__ (jumpstart ID + abbreviated name) and applies it to all deployed items.

3. Provide a custom prefix:

   jumpstart.install("spark-structured-streaming", item_prefix="demo_")
   

The prefixing strategy:

• Renames item directories (e.g., MyNotebook.Notebook → js3_sss__MyNotebook.Notebook)
• Updates all references to renamed items within configuration files
• Uses word-boundary matching to avoid double-prefixing if you re-run the same install
• Reuses existing prefixes from previous attempts to prevent js3_sss__js3_sss__ patterns
