I am sorry but I do not have access to ACL, hence it's difficult for me to address this issue.
djinnome It "should" work, I did some tests with Allegro Express, unfortunately Allegro Express is 32 bit and cl-jupyter needs ZMQ and on my system I only have a 64 bit version. (I can grab one but I thought I'd let you give it a go and if you run into problems I'll rundown the dependent 32 bit libs). Anyways to get it going I'll have your create the profile for allegro manually and once it's dialed in you can give it back to me and I'll create a pull request from it and get it into the cl-jupyter install.
Not knowing how familiar with CL and quicklisp I'll go step by step
Make sure ipython3 is installed if it isn't then you can install for Ubuntu as shown below
apt-get install ipython3-notebook
Install quicklisp curl -O https://beta.quicklisp.org/quicklisp.lisp alisp -L quicklisp.lisp (quicklisp-quickstart:install) (ql:add-to-init-file)
Clone the cl-jupyter repo in to the directory ~/quicklisp/local-projects
directory on your system
git clone https://github.com/fredokun/cl-jupyter.git
cd into cl-jupyter and run install script
python3 ./install-cl-jupyter.py
Start Allegro lisp and load cl-jupyter and exit alisp (ql:quickload :cl-jupyter)
Start ipython3 and make sure it works and so it creates the ~/.ipython
profile directory then shut it down
ipython3 notebook
Make a directory to hold the config file for the Allegro lisp kernel
mkdir ~/.ipython/kernels/alisp
Create a file called kernel.json
in directory ~/.ipython/kernels/alisp
with the contents below changing HOMEDIR
to the fully qualified path to your home directory.
{"argv": ["alisp", "-L", "HOMEDIR/.clinit.cl", "-L", "HOMEDIR/quicklisp/local-projects/cl-jupyter/cl-jupyter.lisp", "--", "HOMEDIR/quicklisp/local-projects/cl-jupyter/src", "HOMEDIR/quicklisp/local-projects/cl-jupyter", "{connection_file}"], "language": "lisp", "display_name": "ACL Lisp"}
Finally start ipython and test it out by creating a new notebook and selecting the ACL Lisp
kernel.
Let me know how it goes. If you have problems I'll run down the 32 bit libs I need, or if you can get the folks at Pathway to give me a copy of their app and I will see what I can do.
I tried the suggested procedure from @mmaul using Allegro Common Lisp's mlisp. There were, of course, issues due to mlisp being case-sensitive, which I resolved by converting a few variable names to lower case. But I got stuck trying to get the kernel to reply. There appears to be an issue with the utf-8 decoding. Here is the output I got:
cl-jupyter: an enhanced interactive Common Lisp REPL (Version 0.7 - Jupyter protocol v.5.0) --> (C) 2014-2015 Frederic Peschanski (cf. LICENSE)
[Hearbeat] starting... [Kernel] Entering mainloop ... [Shell] loop started [Heartbeat] thread started Recv: issue with UTF-8 decoding
[W 20:36:37.396 NotebookApp] Timeout waiting for kernel_info reply from f60367ee-3da9-4ee5-801f-f9655cbf9eb8
Now that allegro common lisp is 64 bit, is it more feasible to get cl-jupyter to support allegro?
Hi Folks,
I use Pathway-tools, which uses Allegro common lisp underneath. On the other hand, if the kernel just needs to connect to a REPL through a socket, Pathway-tools already provides a Unix socket.
Sincerely,
