Development

===========

|
Installing Javascript machinery
|
|
-------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Running the Notebook from the source code on Github requires some Javascript
|
|
tools to build/minify the CSS and Javascript components. We do these steps when
|
|
making releases, so there's no need for these tools when installing released
|
|
versions of the Notebook.
|
|
|
|
First, install `Node.js <https://nodejs.org/>`_. The installers on the
|
|
Node.js website also include Node's package manager, *npm*. Alternatively,
|
|
install both of these from your package manager. For example, on Ubuntu or Debian::
|
|
|
|
sudo apt-get install nodejs-legacy npm
|
|
|
|
You can then build the Javascript and CSS by running::
|
|
|
|
python setup.py css js
|
|
|
|
This will automatically fetch the remaining dependencies (bower, less) and
|
|
install them in a subdirectory.
|
|
|
|
For quick iteration on the Notebook's Javascript you can deactivate the use of
|
|
the bundled and minified Javacript by using the option
|
|
``--NotebookApp.ignore_minified_js=True``. This might though highly increase the
|
|
number of requests that the browser make to the server, but can allow to test
|
|
Javascript file modification without going through the compilation step that
|
|
can take up to 30 sec.
