Features

• JupyterLab: A web-based interactive development environment for Jupyter notebooks, code, and data. The images include
  • code-server: VS Code in the browser without MS branding/telemetry/licensing.
  • Git: A distributed version-control system for tracking changes in source code.
  • Git LFS: A Git extension for versioning large files.
  • Pandoc: A universal markup converter.
  • Python: An interpreted, object-oriented, high-level programming language with dynamic semantics.
  • Quarto: A scientific and technical publishing system built on Pandoc.
    ℹ️ scipy image, amd64 only
  • TinyTeX: A lightweight, cross-platform, portable, and easy-to-maintain LaTeX distribution based on TeX Live.
    ℹ️ scipy image
  • Zsh: A shell designed for interactive use, although it is also a powerful scripting language.

👉 See the Version Matrix for detailed information.

This projects requires an installation of docker.

To install docker, follow the instructions for your platform:

• Install Docker Engine | Docker Documentation > Supported platforms
• Post-installation steps for Linux

latest:

cd base && docker build \
  --build-arg PYTHON_VERSION=3.11.3 \
  -t jupyterlab/python/base \
  -f latest.Dockerfile .

version:

cd base && docker build \
  -t jupyterlab/python/base:MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH \
  -f MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.Dockerfile .

For MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH ≥ 3.10.5.

Create an empty directory:

mkdir jupyterlab-jovyan
sudo chown 1000:100 jupyterlab-jovyan

It will be bind mounted as the JupyterLab user's home directory and automatically populated on first run.

self built:

docker run -it --rm \
  -p 8888:8888 \
  -u root \
  -v "${PWD}/jupyterlab-jovyan":/home/jovyan \
  -e NB_UID=$(id -u) \
  -e NB_GID=$(id -g) \
  -e CHOWN_HOME=yes \
  -e CHOWN_HOME_OPTS='-R' \
  jupyterlab/python/base[:MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH]

from the project's GitLab Container Registries:

docker run -it --rm \
  -p 8888:8888 \
  -u root \
  -v "${PWD}/jupyterlab-jovyan":/home/jovyan \
  -e NB_UID=$(id -u) \
  -e NB_GID=$(id -g) \
  -e CHOWN_HOME=yes \
  -e CHOWN_HOME_OPTS='-R' \
  IMAGE[:MAJOR[.MINOR[.PATCH]]]

IMAGE being one of

• glcr.b-data.ch/jupyterlab/python/base
• glcr.b-data.ch/jupyterlab/python/scipy

The use of the -v flag in the command mounts the empty directory on the host (${PWD}/jupyterlab-jovyan in the command) as /home/jovyan in the container.

-e NB_UID=$(id -u) -e NB_GID=$(id -g) instructs the startup script to switch the user ID and the primary group ID of ${NB_USER} to the user and group ID of the one executing the command.

-e CHOWN_HOME=yes -e CHOWN_HOME_OPTS='-R' instructs the startup script to recursively change the ${NB_USER} home directory owner and group to the current value of ${NB_UID} and ${NB_GID}.
ℹ️ This is only required for the first run.

The server logs appear in the terminal.

Using Docker Desktop

sudo chown 1000:100 jupyterlab-jovyan might not be required. Also

docker run -it --rm \
  -p 8888:8888 \
  -v "${PWD}/jupyterlab-jovyan":/home/jovyan \
  IMAGE[:MAJOR[.MINOR[.PATCH]]]

might be sufficient.

What makes this project different:

1. Multi-arch: linux/amd64, linux/arm64/v8
2. Base image: Debian instead of Ubuntu
3. IDE: code-server next to JupyterLab
4. Just Python – no Conda / Mamba
