Loading notebooks from s3/gcs about jupyterlab_templates

[AndersonReyes]

You could just do an s3 sync from s3 into the local templates folders when the jupyter app loads right before. Could also write a background cron that keeps it synced on schedule

Ohhh that's a fair point. My thought/Code might be slower too depending how often people refresh not to mention the cost of having to read each time too. Yeaahhh closing this. It's easier to just manually download to disk once or have users do w.e custom shannanigans they want.

It was a fun late night tinker though 😅

I do see there an issue for using git repo, I'll prob give that a shot using gitpython maybe do the cloning if not exist

[AndersonReyes]

I could prob reuse the code (replace thee s3 stuff with gitpython) to allow for git repos.

Hi @AndersonReyes , just wondering what the correct approach is to actually use s3 as the storage layer for storing templates and loading them from there. Thanks for your help
