IPython Notebook development
Development dependencies
Developers of the IPython Notebook will need to install the following tools:
- invoke
- node.js
- less (
npm install -g less)
Components
We are moving to a model where our JavaScript dependencies are managed using
bower. These packages are installed in static/components
and committed into a separate git repo ipython/ipython-components.
Our dependencies are described in the file
static/components/bower.json. To update our bower packages, run bower install
in this directory.
less
If you edit our .less files you will need to run the less compiler to build
our minified css files. This can be done by running python setup.py css from the root of the repository.
If you are working frequently with .less files please consider installing git hooks that
rebuild the css files and corresponding maps in ${RepoRoot}/git-hooks/install-hooks.sh.
JavaScript Documentation
How to Build/ view the doc for JavaScript. JavaScript documentation should follow a style close to JSDoc one, so you should be able to build them with your favorite documentation builder. Still the documentation comment are mainly written to be read with YUI doc. You can either build a static version, or start a YUIdoc server that will live update the doc at every page request.
To do so, you will need to install YUIdoc.
Install NodeJS
Node is a browser less javascript interpreter. To install it please refer to the documentation for your platform. Install also NPM (node package manager) if it does not come bundled with it.
Get YUIdoc
npm does by default install package in ./node_modules instead of doing a
system wide install. I'll leave you to yuidoc docs if you want to make a system
wide install.
First, cd into js directory :
cd IPython/html/static/js/
# install yuidoc
npm install yuidocjs
Run YUIdoc server
From IPython/html/static/js/
# run yuidoc for install dir
./node_modules/yuidocjs/lib/cli.js --server .
Follow the instruction and the documentation should be available on localhost:3000
Omitting --server will build a static version in the out folder by default.
