These notebooks illustrate the use of RethinkDB: the open-source database for the realtime web via Project Jupyter notebooks.
For a demo, see Ryan Paul - Learn how to use RethinkDB with Jupyter - YouTube
A painless way to try these out, with minimal impact on your environment, is to follow these steps.
Install RethinkDB, e.g. via
docker run -d -P --name rethink1 rethinkdb
Get the port on which RethinkDB is running, e.g. via
export RETHINKDB_PORT_28015_TCP_PORT=`docker port rethink1 28015 | sed 's,.*:,,'`
Use virtualenvwrapper to create a very lightweight virtual environment with the lastest jupyter:
mkvirtualenv rethinkdb
pip install jupyter
Install the python dependencies and an ipython profile to define the %r command:
to run RethinkDB inside jupyter
jupyter notebook Configuration.ipynb
or manually get the dependencies and create a ~/.ipython/profile_default/startup/rdb-extension.py based on the steps at Configuration.ipynb
Run the Earthquake example:
jupyter notebook Earthquake\ Example.ipynb
