Prerequisites

This projects requires an installation of docker.

Install

To install docker, follow the instructions for your platform:

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

Usage

Build image (base)

latest:

cd base && docker build \
  --build-arg MOJO_VERSION=24.5.0 \
  --build-arg PYTHON_VERSION=3.12.7 \
  -t jupyterlab/mojo/base \
  -f latest.Dockerfile .

version:

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

For MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH ≥ 24.3.0.

Create home directory

Create an empty directory using docker:

docker run --rm \
  -v "${PWD}/jupyterlab-jovyan":/dummy \
  alpine chown 1000:100 /dummy

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

Run container

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) \
  jupyterlab/mojo/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) \
  IMAGE[:MAJOR[.MINOR[.PATCH]]]

IMAGE being one of

• glcr.b-data.ch/jupyterlab/max/base
• glcr.b-data.ch/jupyterlab/max/scipy
• glcr.b-data.ch/jupyterlab/mojo/base
• glcr.b-data.ch/jupyterlab/mojo/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.

The server logs appear in the terminal.

Using Podman (rootless mode)

Create an empty home directory:

mkdir "${PWD}/jupyterlab-root"

Use the following command to run the container as root:

podman run -it --rm \
  -p 8888:8888 \
  -u root \
  -v "${PWD}/jupyterlab-root":/home/root \
  -e NB_USER=root \
  -e NB_UID=0 \
  -e NB_GID=0 \
  -e NOTEBOOK_ARGS="--allow-root" \
  IMAGE[:MAJOR[.MINOR[.PATCH]]]

Using Docker Desktop

Creating a home directory 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.

Misc

marimo

To add a JupyterLab Launcher icon for marimo:

1. Terminal: Install marimo and click

   pip install marimo click

2. Terminal: Install jupyter-marimo-proxy

   pip install git+https://github.com/b-data/jupyter-marimo-proxy.git@jupyterlab-docker-stack

3. Restart the container

What makes this project different:

1. Multi-arch: linux/amd64, linux/arm64/v8
   ℹ️ Runs on Apple M series using Docker Desktop.
2. Base image: Debian instead of Ubuntu
   ℹ️ Upcoming: CUDA-based images use Ubuntu.
3. IDE: code-server next to JupyterLab
   ℹ️ code-server = Code - OSS in the browser.
4. Just Python – no Conda / Mamba

b-data tailors the JupyterLab images to your needs, e.g.

• Integration of self-signed CA certificates to enable communication with web services on the intranet.
• Setting up the necessary environment variables so that everything works behind a corporate proxy server.

Additionally, the JupyterHub setup can be customised to allow

• authentication with AD/LDAP
• mounting CIFS/SMB file shares

and much more.
