GenePattern Notebook extension for JupyterLab
Project description
GenePattern Notebook for JupyterLab
The GenePattern Notebook environment gives GenePattern users the ability to interleave text, graphics, and code with their GenePattern analyses to create "notebooks" that can be edited, shared, and published.
GenePattern Notebooks are built on the Jupyter environment and extend it so that users can take advantage of its ease of use and ability to encapsulate an entire scientific research narrative, without the need to write code. They are a core component of the g2nb project.
Looking for classic Jupyter Notebook support?
Jupyter Notebook support in is available, albeit no longer in active development. You can find it in its own branch. Just click here!
Prerequisites
- JupyterLab >= 3.0.0
- ipywidgets >= 7.0.0
Docker
A Docker image with nbtools and the full JupyterLab stack is available through DockerHub.
docker pull genepattern/lab
docker run --rm -p 8888:8888 genepattern/lab
Installation
Full installation instructions for casual use are detailed on the GenePattern Notebook website. Users should also consider the g2nb Notebook Repository, which provides an install-free cloud deployment of the full suite of g2nb tools, including GenePattern Notebook.
Development Install
The installation instructions below are intended for developers who want to install the project from PIP or GitHub for the purposes of software development.
Install Python
In order to get the GenePattern Notebook working you will first need to install a compatible version of Python. This means you will need Python 3.6+. We recommend using the Anaconda Python distribution. This is a scientific version of Python that ships with many of the most popular Python packages for science, math and data analysis (ex: NumPy, SciPy, Pandas, Matplotlib, IPython, etc.).
Note for Mac Users: Mac comes with Python, but if you have an older version of the OS you will need to install a newer version, as many older versions of MacOS ship with Python 2.
Install GenePattern Notebook from GitHub
Copy the contents of genepattern-notebook/extension to your development computer and ensure that the resulting directory if on your Python path. To test this, open Python and try to import genepattern. If this is successful, you have a copy of the extension available.
If you don't already have Jupyter installed, you can install it from PIP by running:
pip install jupyter
From here go to the "Load the GenePattern extension" step below.
Install GenePattern Notebook from PIP or Conda
The easiest way to install GenePattern Notebook is through either PIP or conda. It can be installed by executing one of the following commands:
pip install genepattern-notebook
or
conda install -c genepattern genepattern-notebook
Load the nbtools extension
# Install ipywidgets, if you haven't already
jupyter nbextension enable --py widgetsnbextension
jupyter labextension install @jupyter-widgets/jupyterlab-manager
# Clone the nbtools repository
git clone https://github.com/genepattern/nbtools-lab-prototype.git
cd nbtools-lab-prototype
# Install the nbtools JupyterLab prototype
pip install .
jupyter labextension install .
jupyter nbextension install --py nbtools --sys-prefix
jupyter nbextension enable --py nbtools --sys-prefix
Launch Jupyter
Finally, you may launch JupyterLab by issuing the following command at the terminal:
jupyter lab
This will start up the notebook kernel and launch your web browser pointing to the Notebook.
Related Repositories
The following GitHub repositories contain code or other data related to the GenePattern Notebook environment.
- g2nb: A meta-package which installs all of the g2nb tools and extensions.
- genepattern-python: The GenePattern Library allows for programmatic access to GenePattern from Python, and is used by GenePattern Notebook behind the scenes.
- nbtools: The Notebook Tool Manager is a tool-agnostic interface and registry for searching, browsing and launching available notebook tools in a Jupyter environment.
- jupyter-wysiwyg: A WYSIWYG editor for markdown cells.
- example-notebooks: A repository of example notebooks that demonstrate functionality or analysis techniques in the GenePattern Notebook environment.

Known Issues
The current version of the code only works with GenePattern 3.9.3 and up!
Users using the GenePattern Notebook with an older version of GenePattern (3.9.3 or 3.9.4) may need to log into the GenePattern UI before making use of the notebook. The server status message and child jobs will also be unavailable. If you are using one of these older versions, we recommend that you upgrade to the latest version of GenePattern.
