I've been meaning to submit a PR for this, but never got around to it. At the very least, I'll open it as an issue so it's written down somewhere.

In short, exporting a notebook to PDF fails due to a missing library (I don't recall which one at the time of writing). The simple fix for this would be to add apt install texlive-xetex texlive-fonts-recommended texlive-plain-generic to environment/Dockerfile to get the required libraries.

If it still fails at that point, adding /opt/conda/bin to jupyteruser's PATH environment variable should fix it, though I think that's only needed due to me manually installing the libraries as root, then sudoing to jupyteruser so I don't mess up permissions. If I get around to it, I'll update this issue if this is required if the Dockerfile is updated.

When running conda install pandas the following error occurs because of permission read only error.

Downloading and Extracting Packages

EnvironmentNotWritableError: The current user does not have write permissions to the target environment.

After following the instructions to set up docker(on my Mac), seems like the second instruction to run the image is using the wrong image name,
docker run -i -t --mount type=bind,source="/$(pwd)"/../ebook,target=/home/jupyteruser/ebook -p8888:8888 ppenv

It should be pp.ebook:latest not ppenv.
