SlicerWeb.ipynb error 404 about slicerjupyter HOT 12 CLOSED

If that is the case, can "Option 1. Run using Binder" retire in the future?

This is the first Binder outage I've ever heard of and it was just for a really short time, so this certainly does not justify retiring this option.

I am thinking about running Slicer as a web application and I think the above provides the only means for doing that.

Not at all. Binder is just a quick demo. You can run the same docker image as binder on your own computer, or on virtual machines of any cloud hosting companies. The advantage of using your own resources is that you have immediate startup (no need to wait for tens of seconds) and you can allocate much more computational power; the disadvantage is that it is not free (you have to pay for your internet connection and/or cloud hosting).

What does this header precede or follow?

"Using Slicer from a notebook" section shows how to use Slicer once you have completed setup steps (either on binder or on your computer).

Thanaks @lassoan , found examples employing both practices here.

It works fine for me.

Is it this link that you have tried? https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/Slicer/SlicerNotebooks/master

from slicerjupyter.

Not sure what is different between now and then but it works now.

Bidner is a free service, so I guess we cannot complain about short temporary outages.

You can run the same docker image

Is this still the instruction for that? I see it was written by my former colleague a while back.

from slicerjupyter.

This is one option for running slicer in a docker container. It works with docker locally or with any of the cloud providers: https://github.com/pieper/SlicerDockers

Hi @pieper , your container worked fine. Maybe you want to add a volume mount instruction to the docker run command in your README.md:

-v C:\Users\tashr\Documents:/home/tashr/Documents

In addition, the default resolution can be way too big to fit in the scope of a monitor. I changed it to a suitable one from the top left corner "Monitor Settings" icon.

Another question--

I do not use the Juputer Notebook a lot so it might sound silly. For being able to open an MRI in 3D Slicer, I had to first upload it on the https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/Slicer/SlicerNotebooks/master. Otherwise, my local directories are not visible to the above 3D Slicer. Is it how it is done or is there a better way of doing this?

from slicerjupyter.

You can upload the file to the server that runs the Jupyter kernel, via Jupyter's Upload button:

Or you can upload your data sets anywhere and download them from Slicer (this method is used in most of the example notebooks).

Note that the current image used for Slicer Jupyter notebooks is available here:
