clojupyter docker image

This is a non-official Dockerfile for clojupyter to build a docker image to make it easy to try out the Clojupyter without having to install Jupyter itself. The image is intended primarily for demo purposes, most people will probably want to install Jupyter and Clojupyter on their machine for real work.

Usage

This project is already published on Docker hub. The absolutely simplest way to run the image is doing

docker run -p 8888:8888 --rm simplect/clojupyter:0.2.2

and following the instruction to connect to the server. This will give an empty folder where you can create notebooks from scratch. The notebooks will be inside the container and disappear when it terminates.

To access existing notebooks and/or keep notebooks after the container terminates you can map an directory on the host machine into the notebooks directory in the container:

docker run -p 8888:8888 \
	-v /path/to/folder:/home/jovyan/notebooks \
	--rm simplect/clojupyter:0.2.2

If you want to load and use external libraries, mapping $HOME/.m2 into the container will yield much better performance:

docker run -p 8888:8888 \
	-v $HOME/.m2:/home/jovyan/.m2 \
	-v /path/to/folder:/home/jovyan/notebooks \
	--rm simplect/clojupyter:0.2.2

Building the image

To build an image of clojupyter version 0.2.2 :

CLOJUPYTER_VERSION=0.2.2 make

A release of clojupyter with the name assigned to CLOJUPYTER_VERSION must exist.
