No module named 'notebook.base'

[mpechner-akasa]

Last time I built this docker this worked. I added the pip install notebook because of the error. It ws all one run line. Broke it up to get more info.

Adding Jupyter to a docker. env is python 3.8 OS ubuntu 22.0.4

Commands:

# Jupyter extensions
RUN  pip install cython
RUN  pip install notebook
RUN  pip install jupyter
RUN  jupyter contrib nbextension install. <- fails here
RUN  jupyter nbextensions_configurator enable

Stack strace:

It looks like notebook/base exists:

I ran into this yesterday. It appears that in notebook v 7.0 (published two days ago) they removed the base module: https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/tree/dc2082c84c3f29ecf31f3a05e9b51cf401d5dddd/notebook

You can force notebook to version 6.5 and the configurator will continue to work.

@jbohren Thank you, that was the magic. I guess keep checking to see when nbextension starts using version 7 of notebook. i refresh my docker images every 60 days.

[mpechner-akasa]

Fixed - all good

[schymans]

This does not seem to be fixed for me. I followed instructions (using mamba instead of conda) to install the jupyter_nbextensions_configurator on jupyter notebook 7.0.7 but got the following error:

$ mamba install -c conda-forge jupyter_nbextensions_configurator
...
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'notebook.base'

I have also not seen any description of this version conflict or a way of using jupyter nbextensions on notebook >6.5.

Had the same issue, but with nbconvert. These requirements worked fine for me:

notebook<=6.5.7
jupyter
nbconvert
jupyter-contrib-nbextensions
