Installing the matching version of JupyterLab with your package manager can help ensure matching labextension assets and kernel dependencies, even though this kernel does not yet work in a full, jupyter_server-hosted client such as JupyterLab or Notebook.

Install#

To install the Pyodide kernel labextension and the CLI addons for jupyter lite, run:

pip install jupyterlite-pyodide-kernel

or with conda, mamba, micromamba, etc.

conda install -c conda-forge jupyterlite-pyodide-kernel

For more options see the development install or contributing guide.

Usage#

Build a JupyterLite site:

jupyter lite build

Some new CLI options are also available:

jupyter lite --help

This should show something like this:

  --piplite-wheels=<typedtuple-item-1>...
      Local paths or URLs of piplite-compatible wheels to copy and index
      Default: ()
      Equivalent to: [--PipliteAddon.piplite_urls]
  --pyodide=<Unicode>
      Local path or URL of a pyodide distribution tarball
      Default: ''
      Equivalent to: [--PyodideAddon.pyodide_url]

Learn more#

⚠️ The documentation for advanced configuration is available from the main JupyterLite documentation site:

Uninstall#

To remove the extension, run:

pip uninstall jupyterlite-pyodide-kernel  # or however you installed it

Prerelease Versions#

To install pre-release versions with pip:

pip install --upgrade --pre jupyterlite-pyodide-kernel

Or, similarly for the conda ecosystem, for alpha packages:

conda install \
  -c conda-forge/label/jupyterlite_core_alpha \
  -c conda-forge/label/jupyterlite_pyodide_kernel_alpha \
  -c conda-forge \
  jupyterlite-pyodide-kernel

Note: _beta and _rc packages would follow a similar channel naming convention

Development Install#

Below is an short overview of getting up and running quickly. Please see the contributing guide for full details.

Development Requirements#

Recommended a Python virtual environment provided by a tool of choice, e.g. one of:

  • virtualenv

  • mamba

  • conda

Ensure the local development environment has:

  • git

  • nodejs 20

  • python >=3.8

Development Quick Start#

git clone https://github.com/jupyterlite/pyodide-kernel
cd pyodide-kernel
npm run quickstart

Then, serve the built demo site, documentation, and test reports with Python’s built-in HTTP server:

jlpm serve
