Setting Up your Code

This section is optional if you provide a custom training docker.

NetBook training server automatically tries to create a docker image for your training code to run on Kubernetes.

For NetBook to automatically create a docker image, here are the files we read from repo with the order of priority

We use https://github.com/jupyterhub/repo2docker to make it work

This currently supports and installs based on the following files in the repo

• Configuration Files

  • environment.yml - Install a conda environment

  • Pipfile and/or Pipfile.lock - Install a Python environment

  • requirements.txt - Install a Python environment

  • setup.py - Install Python packages

  • Project.toml - Install a Julia environment

  • REQUIRE - Install a Julia environment (legacy)

  • install.R - Install an R/RStudio environment

  • apt.txt - Install packages with apt-get

  • DESCRIPTION - Install an R package

  • postBuild - Run code after installing the environment

  • start - Run code before the user sessions starts

  • runtime.txt - Specifying runtimes

  • default.nix - the nix package manager

  • Dockerfile - Advanced environments

You can also provide a custom training docker and NetBook can directly use the training docker rather than creating one. To use this, check Creating Training Docker Image
