fabric-jumpstart 0.1.4

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

⚡️Fabric Jumpstart CLI

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.

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

# Renders an interactive catalog
jumpstart.list()

# 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.
• Jumpstarts that include file upload configuration will automatically upload small data files to a Lakehouse's Files area after deployment — no extra arguments needed.

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
