Integrate code-server in your Jupyter environment for an fast, feature-rich and easy to use remote desktop in the browser.

ATTENTION:
code-server has no official support for passing the password/token via url-parameters. Sad thing, a pull request was not merged [more]. Hence, we need to disable authentication at the moment completly with --auth=none [more]. This allows any user who can access localhost:port of the machine running the code-server to use it - even if he is not authorized to do so. An alternative solution to close this security hole might be to use unix sockets instead of ports. As soon as this is fully supported by jupyter-server-proxy we will switch [more].

This package executes the code-server command.
It tries to find the code-server executable checking the following:

• 1. environment variable $CODESERVER_BIN
• 2. <dir-of-__init__.py>/bin/code-server
• 3. which code-server (searching standard $PATH)
• 4. special locations:
     • /opt/codeserver/bin/code-server

virtualenv -p python3 venv
source venv/bin/activate

pip install git+https://github.com/FZJ-JSC/jupyter-codeserver-proxy.git

For Jupyter Classic, activate the jupyter-server-proxy extension:

jupyter serverextension enable --sys-prefix jupyter_server_proxy

For Jupyter Lab, install the @jupyterlab/server-proxy extension:

jupyter labextension install @jupyterlab/server-proxy
jupyter lab build

Click on the code-server icon from the Jupyter Lab Launcher or the code-server item from the New dropdown in Jupyter Classic.
Connect to your database as instructed in the Quickstart section.

This package calls code-server with a bunch of settings.
You have to modify setup_codeserver() in jupyter_codeserver_proxy/__init__.py for change.
