Adding new workspaces with pluggable notebooks

Overview

In the same way that Domino allows you to create compute environments to meet your specific language and package needs, this functionality allows you to define web-based tools inside of your compute environment. This work is typically done by an administrator or advanced Domino user.  We suggest you reach out to your admin for help with defining the tool you wish to use.


Benefits

  • Upgrade to a newer version of currently supported Domino tools such as Jupyter or RStudio
  • Add new web-based tools like JupyterLab
  • Manage the standard default tool for your team or organization across all projects

Setting up tools in Environments

Configuring a tool in an environment involves two parts: giving the environment's docker image installation instructions, and defining how Domino will serve up that tool.


Dockerfile instructions

In your environment, enter the instructions to install and configure a tool in the Dockerfile instructions:

Python version >2.7.9

###Remove any old workspaces
RUN \
apt-get remove rstudio-server -y && \
 rm -rf /usr/local/lib/rstudio-server/rstudio-server && \
 rm -rf /var/opt/workspaces

###Setup workspaces directory and retrieve workspace configs
RUN mkdir /var/opt/workspaces
RUN cd /tmp && wget https://github.com/dominodatalab/workspace-configs/archive/2018q2-v1.9.zip && unzip 2018q2-v1.9.zip && cp -Rf workspace-configs-2018q2-v1.9/. /var/opt/workspaces && \
rm -rf /var/opt/workspaces/workspace-logos && rm -rf /tmp/workspace-configs-2018q2-v1.9

#add update .Rprofile with Domino customizations
RUN \
mv /var/opt/workspaces/rstudio/.Rprofile /home/ubuntu/.Rprofile && \
chown ubuntu:ubuntu /home/ubuntu/.Rprofile

# # # #Install Rstudio from workspaces
RUN chmod +x /var/opt/workspaces/rstudio/install
RUN /var/opt/workspaces/rstudio/install

# # # # # #Install Jupyterlab from workspaces
RUN chmod +x /var/opt/workspaces/Jupyterlab/install
RUN /var/opt/workspaces/Jupyterlab/install

# # #Install Jupyter from workspaces
RUN chmod +x /var/opt/workspaces/jupyter/install
RUN /var/opt/workspaces/jupyter/install
# Clean up temporary files
RUN \
 rm -Rf /var/lib/apt/lists/* && \
 rm -Rf /tmp/*

# # # # # #Install Jupyterlab from workspaces (pinned to avoid working directory bug in Jupyterlab)

Properties

Notebook properties are stored as YAML data mapping notebook names to their definitions. Enter this in the Properties for Notebooks field in the Environment definition.

Example:

jupyter:
  title: "Jupyter (Python, R, Julia)"
  iconUrl: "/assets/images/workspace-logos/Jupyter.svg"
  start: [ "/var/opt/workspaces/jupyter/start" ]
  httpProxy:
    port: 8888
    rewrite: false
    internalPath: "/{{ownerUsername}}/{{projectName}}/{{sessionPathComponent}}/{{runId}}/{{#if pathToOpen}}tree/{{pathToOpen}}{{/if}}"
    requireSubdomain: false
  supportedFileExtensions: [ ".ipynb" ]
jupyterlab:
  title: "JupyterLab"
  iconUrl: "/assets/images/workspace-logos/jupyterlab.svg"
  start: [  /var/opt/workspaces/Jupyterlab/start.sh ]
  httpProxy:
    internalPath: "/{{ownerUsername}}/{{projectName}}/{{sessionPathComponent}}/{{runId}}/{{#if pathToOpen}}tree/{{pathToOpen}}{{/if}}"
    port: 8888
    rewrite: false
    requireSubdomain: false
vscode:
  title: "vscode"
  iconUrl: "/assets/images/workspace-logos/vscode.svg"
  start: [ "/var/opt/workspaces/vscode/start" ]
  httpProxy:
    port: 8888
    requireSubdomain: false
rstudio:
  title: "RStudio"
  iconUrl: "/assets/images/workspace-logos/Rstudio.svg"
  start: [ "/var/opt/workspaces/rstudio/start" ]
  httpProxy:
    port: 8888
    requireSubdomain: false

Note to administrators

When the ShortLived.PluggableInteractiveSessionSubdomains feature flag is set to false, the httpProxy.requireSubdomain becomes required, and must be set to false. Any pluggable definitions without this flag explicitly set will be treated as invalid and will not be usable.
