jupyterpost 0.0.1

Jupyterpost: Jupyterhub service for posting to Mattermost.

Jupyterpost: post from Jupyterhub to a Mattermost server

Installing

pip install jupyterpost

Enabling jupyterpost

1. Create a bot user on your Mattermost server and get its token.
2. Add the following at the end of your Jupyterhub config file.

from jupyterpost import configure_jupyterhub

configure_jupyterhub(
    c,
    mattermost_token="your mattermost token",
    mattermost_url="https://your.mattermost.server/api/v4/",
    mattermost_team="your mattermost team name",
    jupyterpost_url="https://services.your.jupyterhub/services/jupyterpost",
)

This will:

• add a new service jupyterpost to your Jupyterhub
• give all users and their servers access to this service
• provide the service URL to the user's server as an environment variable JUPYTERPOST_URL

The function is somewhat fragile, but should work for standard Jupyterhub installations.

Using jupyterpost

from jupyterpost import post
from matplotlib import pyplot

pyplot.plot([0, 1])
post(
    message="Check out my plot",
    channel="my-channel",  # Or "@username"
    attachment=pyplot.gcf(),  # Or png bytes
)

Posting from outside of your Jupyterhub

1. Get the variables JUPYTERPOST_URL and JPY_API_TOKEN from your Jupyterhub server.
2. Provide them to jupyterpost.post as additional arguments and connect from anywhere!

Contributing

Contributions are welcome! Please open an issue or a pull request.

Specifically I would like to support more chat services, and more ways to post messages.

Tests would also be great huehuehue.
