Aim UI does not open at all within Jupyterlab notebook with `%loadext`

[adivekar-utexas]

🐛 Bug

When trying the documented steps to open the AIM UI on jupyter on my local laptop, it fails with an error.

To reproduce

Install aim (I have aim==3.17.3) pip install -U aim

From JupyterLab:

%load_ext aim

%aim up 

Passing "--repo=" also does not work:

%load_ext aim

%aim up   --repo="/Users/adivekar/my_project/"

In both cases, I get the following error.

Notes:

• I am successfully able to open the repo by running
• The repo already has multiple runs in it
• This issue has been around since at least aim 3.8, I've tried multiple times over the last few months and never gotten it to work.

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'aim'

Expected behavior

It should open as shown on the docs: https://aimstack.readthedocs.io/en/latest/using/jupyter_notebook_ui.html

Environment

• Aim Version (e.g., 3.0.1): aim==3.17.3
• Python version: 3.10.6
• pip version: pip 22.2.2
• OS (e.g., Linux): MacOS Monterey 12.6.1
• Any other relevant information:
  • I am successfully able to open the repo by running
  • The repo already has multiple runs in it
  • This issue has been around since at least aim 3.8, I've tried multiple times over the last few months and never gotten it to work.
