jupyterlab-basic-terminal-extension 1.0.4

Jupyterlab extension to make a command that allows launching a utility terminal that runs without shell. This can be used to start and show console utilities, that when finished - close the terminal window / tab

jupyterlab_basic_terminal_extension

Launch a utility terminal in JupyterLab that runs without a shell. Perfect for spawning short-lived console utilities that close their tab automatically when the underlying process exits, instead of leaving behind an idle shell prompt.

Features

• Shell-less terminal command - Adds a JupyterLab command that opens a terminal bound directly to a utility process, with no surrounding shell
• Auto-close on exit - Terminal tab closes as soon as the utility process finishes, keeping the workspace tidy
• Server extension companion - Python jupyter_server extension exposes the route used by the frontend to spawn the process
• JupyterLab 4 native - Built against @jupyterlab/application 4.x and ships as a prebuilt federated extension
