core.matrix-examples

This is a collection of examples using core.matrix and its implementations. This provides a way to easily test out core.matrix implementations with no local installation via mybinder.org in a JupyterLab environment. Click the 'launch binder' badge above to start a temporary server.

Read on to learn more about how the environment is configured, although it's not necessary to use the examples.

Configuration

Several configuration files are used to describe the environment. Read more about them here. One additional dependency is the deps.edn file which specifies Clojure dependecies.

Python Dependencies

The Python dependencies are installed via conda and are listed in environment.yml which includes clojupyter, numpy, and scipy.

Installing Java & Clojure

Java is downloaded with apt-get and is listed in apt.txt. Clojure is installed using a downloaded script in postBuild. Note: postBuild actions are run under user and not root, so it is installed in a user directory (~/.local) without sudo.

Creating and Installing the Kernel

This repo uses clojupyter to create a new kernel using a deps.edn file to specify Clojure dependecies. If you'd like to change the deps.edn to bring in another Clojure library use the following to uninstall and reinstall the Clojupyter kernel. Make sure to reload the page and select the correct kernel (titled deps-edn).

make reinstall

Local Docker Container

You can use repo2docker to create a docker image to test binder environments locally. Use the following:

make docker

The configuration should automatically run make install to install a Clojupyter kernel with the deps.edn dependencies.
