Installing JupyterLab on FreeBSD Latest

JupyterLab is a web-based interactive development environment for working with Jupyter notebooks, code, and data. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing JupyterLab on FreeBSD Latest.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, make sure you have root access to your FreeBSD Latest system and that you have installed the following packages:

• pkg
• python3
• pip

Step 1: Update FreeBSD System

Update your FreeBSD system to get the latest software packages by running the following command:

pkg update && pkg upgrade

Step 2: Install JupyterLab and its Dependencies

Next, we will install JupyterLab and its dependencies using pip, the package installer for Python:

pip install jupyterlab

Step 3: Generate JupyterLab Configuration File

Generate a JupyterLab configuration file by running the following command:

jupyter lab --generate-config

Step 4: Configure JupyterLab

Open the configuration file /root/.jupyter/jupyter_lab_config.py with your favorite text editor and update the file with the following configuration:

c.ServerApp.ip = '0.0.0.0'
c.ServerApp.open_browser = False

This will allow JupyterLab to be accessible outside of the server and prevent it from automatically opening a web browser.

Step 5: Start JupyterLab

Launch JupyterLab by running the following command:

jupyter lab

This will start JupyterLab and generate a unique URL. Copy the URL and paste it into your web browser. If you followed Step 4 correctly, JupyterLab should now be accessible from your web browser.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed JupyterLab on FreeBSD Latest. You can now use it to create and manage Jupyter notebooks, code, and data.

If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!

Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
