Quick Start

For those already familiar with JupyterLab and unix.

GitHub Account

A GitHub account is required to gain access to the JupyterHub and to clone the tutorials used in the Hackhours.

How do I get the tutorials into the JupyterHub?

  • You can upload files.
  • Easiest is probably cloning a repo into the hub. See the JupyterHub Skills section if you do not know how to do this.

Authenticating to GitHub

This is a little different on the JupyterHub. See git authentication.

For content that uses the NASA Earthdata repository, you will need an Earthdata Login account. Please visit https://urs.earthdata.nasa.gov to register and manage your Earthdata Login account. This account is free to create. Please jot down your username and password, as you need to enter it in the tutorials.

When done, please stop the JupyterHub

If you are in JupyterLab in the browser:

  • File > Hub Control Panel > Stop my server

If you are in RStudio and you still have the JupyterLab tab open in your browser:

  • Go to the JupyterLab tab
  • File > Hub Control Panel > Stop my server

If you are in RStudio and you do not have the JupyterLab tab open in your browser because you closed that tab:

  • Go to the url https://<jupyterhub url>/user/<your username in the hub>/lab/ That will open the JupyterLab tab
  • File > Hub Control Panel > Stop my server
