Development install

Note: You will need Node.js and Docker to build the extension package.

The jlpm command is JupyterLab's pinned version of yarn that is installed with JupyterLab. You may use yarn or npm in lieu of jlpm below.

# Clone the repo to your local environment
git clone https://github.com/jupytercad/JupyterCAD.git
# Change directory to the jupytercad directory
cd JupyterCAD
# Install JupyterLab for jlpm
pip install jupyterlab
# Install package in development mode
jlpm dev
# Rebuild extension Typescript source after making changes
jlpm run build

Note: You need to have docker installed to build @jupytercad/opencascade package, you can skip this step and download a prebuilt version by calling jlpm dev --no-occ-build instead of jlpm dev.

You can watch the source directory and run JupyterLab at the same time in different terminals to watch for changes in the extension's source and automatically rebuild the extension.

# Watch the source directory in one terminal, automatically rebuilding when needed
jlpm run watch
# Run JupyterLab in another terminal
jupyter lab

With the watch command running, every saved change will immediately be built locally and available in your running JupyterLab. Refresh JupyterLab to load the change in your browser (you may need to wait several seconds for the extension to be rebuilt).

By default, the jlpm run build command generates the source maps for this extension to make it easier to debug using the browser dev tools. To also generate source maps for the JupyterLab core extensions, you can run the following command:

jupyter lab build --minimize=False

Custom Open Cascade WASM build

JupyterCAD uses a custom build of Open Cascade WASM. For performance and data usage concern, we only build the symbols we need.

This custom build is done in the packages/opencascade directory:

cd packages/opencascade

In order to rebuild it yourself, you need to install Docker, then you need to run the following (this may take some time):

yarn run build

In the case where you need to add new symbols, you can rebuild Open Cascade with the following command.

yarn run build --add symbol_to_add another_symbol ...

Development uninstall

pip uninstall jupytercad

In development mode, you will also need to remove the symlink created by jupyter labextension develop command. To find its location, you can run jupyter labextension list to figure out where the labextensions folder is located. Then you can remove the symlink named jupytercad within that folder.

Packaging the extension
