Prerequisites

• JupyterLab 0.35

Installation

jupyter labextension install @illumidesk/jupyter-lti

Once installed you can enable or disable extensions.

Development

For a development install (requires npm version 4 or later), do the following in the repository directory:

• Install and activate conda environment

  wget https://repo.continuum.io/miniconda/Miniconda2-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh -O ~/miniconda.sh;
  bash ~/miniconda.sh -b -p $HOME/miniconda
  export PATH="$HOME/miniconda/bin:$PATH"
  pip install --pre jupyterlab

• Install dependencies

jlpm install
jlpm run build
jupyter labextension install .

You can then run JupyterLab in watch mode to automatically pick up changes to @illumidesk/jupyter-lti. Open a terminal in the @illumidesk/jupyter-lti repository directory and enter:

jlpm run watch

Then launch JupyterLab using:

jupyter lab --watch

This will automatically recompile @illumidesk/jupyter-lti upon changes, and JupyterLab will rebuild itself. You should then be able to refresh the page and see your changes.
