Install

To install the extension, execute:

pip install gennaker-tools

Uninstall

To remove the extension, execute:

pip uninstall gennaker-tools

Contributing

Development install

Note: You will need NodeJS to build the extension package.

The pnpm command is JupyterLab's pinned version of yarn that is installed with JupyterLab. You may use yarn or npm in lieu of pnpm below.

# Clone the repo to your local environment
# Change directory to the gennaker_tools directory
# Install package in development mode
pip install -e "."
# Link your development version of the extension with JupyterLab
jupyter-builder develop . --overwrite
# Rebuild extension Typescript source after making changes
pnpm run build

You can watch the source directory and run JupyterLab at the same time in different terminals to watch for changes in the extension's source and automatically rebuild the extension.

# Watch the source directory in one terminal, automatically rebuilding when needed
pnpm run watch
# Run JupyterLab in another terminal
jupyter lab

With the watch command running, every saved change will immediately be built locally and available in your running JupyterLab. Refresh JupyterLab to load the change in your browser (you may need to wait several seconds for the extension to be rebuilt).

By default, the pnpm run build command generates the source maps for this extension to make it easier to debug using the browser dev tools. To also generate source maps for the JupyterLab core extensions, you can run the following command:

jupyter lab build --minimize=False

Development uninstall

pip uninstall gennaker-tools

In development mode, you will also need to remove the symlink created by jupyter-builder develop command. To find its location, you can run jupyter-builder list to figure out where the labextensions folder is located. Then you can remove the symlink named gennaker-tools within that folder.
