Gator

The Mamba Navigator, a Web UI for managing conda environments

Binder Install with conda npm Github Actions Status Coverage Status Swagger Validator

Provides Conda/Mamba environment and package management as a standalone application or as extension for JupyterLab.

Install

Requirements

  • conda >= 4.5 or mamba >=0.5
  • JupyterLab 1.x, 2.x or 3.x (for the JupyterLab extension only)

Starting from 3.4, this extension will use mamba instead of conda if it finds it.

To install in the classical notebook:

mamba install -c conda-forge mamba_gator

To install in the JupyterLab:

mamba install -c conda-forge jupyterlab mamba_gator

If you use JupyterLab 1.x or 2.x, you can install the extension with the following command:

jupyter labextension install @mamba-org/gator-lab

Optionally, you could install jupyterlab-tour to add a help tour for the conda packages manager.

JupyterLab

This extension adds a new entry Conda Packages Manager in the Settings menu.

The first time, it can take quite some time to build the available packages list. But once it is obtained, it will be cached and updated to the background to have a smoother user experience.

Gator (Mamba navigator)

This project contains a standalone navigator application sharing much of the code of the JupyterLab extension.

Classical Jupyter Notebook

The classical Jupyter Notebook is supported only for version prior to 5. But you can directly manage the conda environments with the standalone navigator tool. For that you need to execute the following command in a terminal:

gator

Creating New Environments

There are three ways to create an environment:

  • Create a new environment Use the New Environment button at the top of the page, and select Python 3, or R to create a base environment with the corresponding packages. Note that if you want to run a Jupyter python kernel in the new environment, you must also install the ipykernel package in the environment.

  • Clone an existing environment Click the clone button next to an environment in the list, and enter the desired name of the new environment.

  • Import an exported environment from a YAML file

Development

mamba create -c conda-forge -y -n gator python jupyterlab=3
mamba install -c conda-forge -y -n gator --file requirements_dev.txt
conda activate gator
pip install -e .
jupyter server extension enable mamba_gator --sys-prefix

yarn install
yarn run build:dev
jupyter labextension link packages/common/ packages/labextension/

Acknowledgements

This work started as a fork by @fcollonval of the Anaconda nb_conda package. The decision to fork it came due to apparently dead status of the previous package and a need to integrate it within JupyterLab.

Then with the mamba initiative pushed by QuantStack it made sense to move the project in the mamba-org organization.

    • Fix missing classical notebook extension #115
    • Fix mamba not detected on Windows #119

4.0.0

  • Features
    • Moving to mamba-org
    • Integrate a standalone application
    • Common frontend for JupyterLab, classical Notebook and Gator
    • Depend optionally on nb_conda_kernels

3.4.1

  • Features
    • Better logger
  • Bugs
    • Reduce UI freezing time by running expensive code in asynchronous executor

3.4.0

  • Features
    • Use mamba if available. Otherwise use conda #46
    • Move to GitHub workflow (extend coverage to JupyterLab code)
  • Bugs
    • Fix wrong redirection url in classic notebook #47
    • Fix channel given by full URL not properly handle #55

3.3.1

  • Bugs

    • Add a settings fromHistory to export an environment using --from-history (available for conda >= 4.7.12) #39
  • Bugs
    • Fixes absent channeldata.json file #36

  • Switch to newer Python syntax async-await

  • To improve UI reactivity in Jupyterlab:

    • Long running task can now be cancelled #32
    • The available packages list is used to find updatable package. conda update --dry-run --all is not used any longer. But it is still used if the user request updating all possible packages.
