add editor and compiler for git and terminal demos? #6

Closed gaelforget closed 4 years ago

gaelforget commented 4 years ago

The code snippet (abbreviated) + error message below first led me to believe that adding vim (or nano) to the cloud instance environment would be needed to enable to use git commit. 

git clone https://github.com/gaelforget/MIT-PraCTES
cd MIT-PraCTES
...
git config --global core.editor vim
git commit demos/README.md 
hint: Waiting for your editor to close the file... error: unable to start editor 'vim'
Please supply the message using either -m or -F option.

Found this relevant post and tried sudo apt-get install nano as suggested here but get bash: sudo: command not found.

update 1 I went back and the following works even without vim or nano

git commit demos/README.md -m "my message

update 2 https://github.com/binder-examples/apt_install works to install nano (see below)

Will try this next : https://github.com/binder-examples/apt_install

This worked for nano (https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/gaelforget/apt_install/nano-test1?urlpath=lab) but the build seems to have timed out for vim.

This worked also for gfortran and thus MITgcm:
