Virtual folder can be installed with optional software, application and services.

Jupyter binary installation

You may use binary installation from /cvmfs/west-life.egi.eu repository, to do that, create link /opt/jupyter to e.g. the latest version:

ln -s /cvmfs/west-life.egi.eu/software/jupyter/latest /opt/jupyter

Then enable the jupyter tasks in metadata service configuration /etc/systemd/system/westlife-metadata.service by adding VF_ALLOW_LAB=true VF_ALLOW_NOTEBOOK=true. See Manual configuration for details.

Jupyter local installation

In order to install Jupyter in local installation during bootstrap of VF - set local variable ALLOW_JUPYTER=1before launching bootstrap, i.e.:

# define where VF sources are located 
# export WP6SRC=/vagrant
export ALLOW_JUPYTER=1 # enable jupyter
$WP6SRC/bootstrap/bootstrap.sh

Jupyter manual installation

Jupyter notebook and Jupyter Lab can be installed manually, see/edit the bootstrap/bootstrapJupyter.sh and set local variable ALLOW_JUPYTER=1before launching this script:

# define where VF sources are located 
# export WP6SRC=/vagrant
export ALLOW_JUPYTER=1 # enable jupyter
$WP6SRC/bootstrap/bootstrapJupyter.sh

Python environment with jupyter and all other dependencies will be installed by default at /opt/jupyter path. You need then to enable tasks in virtual folder UI:

  • enable jupyter notebook and jupyter lab task in metadata service configuration /etc/systemd/system/westlife-metadata.service by adding VF_ALLOW_LAB=true VF_ALLOW_NOTEBOOK=true:

    [Service]
    ...
    Environment=VF_ALLOW_LAB=true
    Environment=VF_ALLOW_NOTEBOOK=true
    ...
