Edit nodes with Rete and jupyterlab
This extension is composed of a Python package named jupyterlab_nodeeditor
for the server extension and a NPM package named jupyterlab_nodeeditor
for the frontend extension.
- JupyterLab >= 3.0
pip install jupyterlab_nodeeditor
If you are seeing the frontend extension, but it is not working, check that the server extension is enabled:
jupyter server extension list
If the server extension is installed and enabled, but you are not seeing the frontend extension, check the frontend extension is installed:
jupyter labextension list
It is recommended to first install JLNE and all of its dependencies on a fresh environment to ensure it is stable.
conda install jupyterlab
conda install nodejs
pip install pyyaml
python -m ipykernel install --name conda_env --user
- Clone the repo to your local environment and change the working directory to the jupyterlab_nodeeditor directory.
- Install the package via pip
pip install -e .
- Use jlpm to install javascript deps
jlpm install
- Link your development version of the extension with JupyterLab
jupyter labextension develop . --overwrite
The jlpm
command is JupyterLab's pinned version of
yarn that is installed with JupyterLab. You may use
yarn
or npm
in lieu of jlpm
below.
# Rebuild extension Typescript source after making changes
jlpm run build
You can watch the source directory and run JupyterLab at the same time in different terminals to watch for changes in the extension's source and automatically rebuild the extension.
# Watch the source directory in one terminal, automatically rebuilding when needed
jlpm run watch
# Run JupyterLab in another terminal
jupyter lab
With the watch command running, every saved change will immediately be built locally and available in your running JupyterLab. Refresh JupyterLab to load the change in your browser (you may need to wait several seconds for the extension to be rebuilt).
By default, the jlpm run build
command generates the source maps for this extension to make it easier to debug using the browser dev tools. To also generate source maps for the JupyterLab core extensions, you can run the following command:
jupyter lab build --minimize=False
pip uninstall jupyterlab_nodeeditor
