@blink1073 or someone else expert on build (jupyterlab build) available for a 10/15 mins call sometime today ?
We are hitting a build issue with Elyra and would need some guidance

@lresende If you are still around now, I am happy to jump on a short call!

@lresende
@saulshanabrook sorry, got a little side tracked with unexpected calls and will have to get back to this later… i might wait for wed on the dev call where all will be there

Sounds good

Hi everyone,
We are facing intermittent issue with opening Run tab.
After a double click on the Notebook, and when we want to run the same, sometimes it happens that the Run tab does not open, we click on it and wait for 10 seconds and nothing.
Is this a known issue?
Thx

@jasongrout
You're talking about the sidebar tab "Running kernels and consoles"? Are you saying that sometimes you click on that sidebar tab and it takes it a while to display the running kernels?
I have not heard of an issue like that. Do you have an huge number of kernels running? Is the server particularly slow?

@jasongrout I'm reffering to Run menu item which is part of Menu bar. We have some automation scripts and recently we started to notice that sometimes Run menu item won't open even thought script click on it, after opening the simple notebook.
Jason Grout
@jasongrout
So it is an automated click, and then it takes some time before the menu shows up?
The menu waits for an animation frame to show up, IIRC, so it may be some interaction with the scripting software and how animation frames are scheduled in the browser?
Perhaps using whatever command you want directly from the system is more consistent than waiting for the browser to draw UX elements like menus?

is it at all possible that the jlab file explorer doesn't list all macOS aliases? I'm perplexed because it does for o/lder ones but not for new aliases i recently created.
yeah, looks like my older ones were proper symlinks, but macOS Finder aliases are invisible.
Jason Grout
@jasongrout
From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alias_(Mac_OS), it looks like Finder aliases are special files?
jlab just displays whatever the notebook file contents manager gives it. So I guess the question here is if the Jupyter Notebook file contents manager in the notebook server understands these special files.
apparently not?

we're trying to create a jupyter server extension which is basically a websocket handler that calls write_message from a thread
which errs with [ERROR] [1591198708.203620]: Exception calling subscribe callback: There is no current event loop in thread '/listener'.
I was wondering if by chance someone else attempted something like this before?
I tried setting AnyThreadEventLoopPolicy but it broke jupyter

Is there a colour picker extension for JupyterLab? I just realised how much time I am wasting when creating plots by not having a built-in colour picker. I know that there are some widgets for specific kernels but like a standalone extension?
Jason Grout
@jasongrout
I don't know of one, but should be pretty easy to make a widget wrapping a js-based color picker
Michał Krassowski
@krassowski
that's what I thought! Like literally a few lines of code. Might be a good example extension (like astronomy picture of the day but highligting other interfaces - i.e.I would like to have it in a sidebar and maybe in the menu).
Fred Mitchell
@fm75
Isn't there one in ipywidgets?
Michał Krassowski
@krassowski
but the ipywidgets one is kernel dependent, isn't it?
Fred Mitchell
@fm75
Yeah

@blois
I keep wanting something like https://github.com/easylogic/codemirror-colorpicker. Presumably could trigger it with color('#aaa'), where color was a function that just returned a string, but was a hint to the editor to highlight the string argument as a color.
Michał Krassowski
@krassowski
wow, that's such a great code mirror extension! just needs a night theme to greatly improve UX!

Does anybody know if the chunks for the contents api is documented anywhere? https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab/blob/caaecc573bd511521fce73b0aa718ea4264fc016/packages/services/src/contents/index.ts#L90 It doesn't seem to be included here: https://jupyter-notebook.readthedocs.io/en/stable/extending/contents.html
I only see it for the LargeFile manager: https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/blob/ed5e9d6d0ea679c567643c47b363af04d80446a9/notebook/services/contents/largefilemanager.py#L8-L15
so I guess it is a de-facto standard kind of ?
Steven Silvester
@blink1073
Yeah it was added later and not well documented it seems
Vidar Tonaas Fauske
@vidartf
would you consider it part of that standard that the partial file must be written after receiving chunk: 1 ?
Vidar Tonaas Fauske
@vidartf
or is that purely a detail in the default implementation
Jason Grout
@jasongrout
I would say (conservatively) an implementation detail?
Is there a specific capability you have in mind to make it part of the standard?
Vidar Tonaas Fauske
@vidartf
what I mean is that currently both lab and notebook will send the chunk argument along together with a partial file
any contents managers that do not understand chunk will simply end up overwriting the file with the contents of the final chunk
leading to broken/corrupt files
and no errors
so either I would want to document this as a required part of the contents api standard
or put some flag on the manager classes that the server can check if it receives chunks (and fail with a 4xx/5xx error)
*fail if unsupported
Jason Grout
@jasongrout
I agree about documenting "chunks" as a part of the standard. What I meant was is there a reason to insist that a partial file must be written after getting the first chunk as part of the standard?
Vidar Tonaas Fauske
@vidartf
I see that the LFM does it, and wondered there would ever be a case were some other system relied on it being returned with the dir listing while partial
just a sanity check I guess
since the hanbdler is expected to return a model
Jason Grout
@jasongrout
yeah, I could see that either way. I think a standard thing to do when having a partial file is to store it as a temporary file until the whole file is done, then rename it to the final name, so I would say writing the partial file is an implementation detail
