A Jupyter server based on FastAPI

jupyverse

A set of FPS plugins implementing a Jupyter server.

Try it online:

• JupyterLab frontend:
• RetroLab frontend:

Motivation

For the motivations behind this project, please refer to this issue in the Jupyter server team compass.

Install

With pip:

pip install jupyverse[jupyterlab]  # for the JupyterLab front-end
# or
pip install jupyverse[retrolab]  # for the RetroLab front-end

With mamba or conda (using the conda-forge channel):

mamba install jupyverse fps-jupyterlab  # for the JupyterLab front-end
# or
mamba install jupyverse fps-retrolab  # for the RetroLab front-end

Note: you cannot have both the JupyterLab and the RetroLab front-ends enabled at the same time. When switching e.g. from the JupyterLab to the RetroLab front-end, you need to pip uninstall fps-jupyterlab or launch Jupyverse with --JupyterLab.enabled=false.

Development install

Clone this repository and install the needed plugins:

pip install -e . --no-deps
pip install -e plugins/jupyterlab

Usage

Without authentication

jupyverse --open-browser --authenticator.mode=noauth

This will open a browser at 127.0.0.1:8000 by default, and load the JupyterLab front-end. You have full access to the API, without restriction.

With token authentication

jupyverse --open-browser --authenticator.mode=token

This is the default mode, and it corresponds to Jupyter Server's token-based authentication.

With user authentication

jupyverse --open-browser --authenticator.mode=user

We provide a JupyterLab extension for authentication, that you can install with:

pip install git+https://github.com/davidbrochart/jupyverse-auth

You can currently authenticate as an anonymous user, or using a GitHub account.

With collaborative editing

jupyverse --open-browser --authenticator.collaborative

This is especially interesting if you are "user-authenticated", since your will appear as the identity you chose for authentication.
