Would there be a way to include extra packages other than building your own spk? Or is it an option to include some popular packages in Sandstorm's version? (e.g. beautifulsoup4).

When trying to open a subprocess, you would have to use the full path /opt/virtualenv/notebook-environment2/bin/python. This will be fixed in the next release.

It's a cleaner, nicer language

When working in python notebooks normally I just drop the notebook file where the server expects to find them.
When working with Sandstorm how are we to upload/load/import notebook files, and other supporting python files?

1. Create a new grain.
2. Create a new notebook with Python 3.
3. Wait for the kernel to start.

After a while, an error appears:

The kernel appears to have died. It will restart automatically.

Then another error appears:

The kernel has died, and the automatic restart has failed. It is possible the kernel cannot be restarted. If you are not able to restart the kernel, you will still be able to save the notebook, but running code will no longer work until the notebook is reopened.

It appears Python 3 doesn't work at all.

Python 2 seems to work fine.

If you open a notebook, lose your internet connection for more then five minutes, and regain your connection, the notebook will be grayed out and nothing will be clickable. Manually reloading the page fixes it, but trying that is probably non-obvious to many users.

import sklearn gives ImportError: No module named sklearn

I can't pip install scikit-learn either: ExceptionPexpect: Error! pty.fork() failed: out of pty devices.

Please review, currently doesn't run python code.

I'd like to access a mercurial grain from an ipython notebook in sandstorm.

I managed to get mercurial installed inside an ipython grain by uploading the source and using it in pure python mode (some details below).

But I can't figure out how to connect to the https address given in the mercurial grain. https://docs.sandstorm.io/en/latest/developing/powerbox/ says HTTP_PROXY should be set, but I get KeyError from os.environ['HTTP_PROXY'].

sys.argv = ['setup.py', '--pure', 'build_py', '-c', '-d', '.']
 execfile("./setup.py")
sys.argv = ['setup.py', '--pure', 'build_hgexe', '-i']
execfile("./setup.py")
