Feature Request: Support for JupyterLab #38

Closed jonn-smith closed 3 years ago

jonn-smith commented 3 years ago

The current extensions seem to be for JupyterNotebooks only. Can you update this codebase to work with JupyterLab as well?

It may be relatively easy - I haven't looked into it myself. I just know that jupyter notebook extensions are not compatible with jupyter lab.

Hi @jonn-smith, Its actually not easy, it will be a major rewrite, and we on the IGV team do not have resources to pursue this. There are 2 extensions involved, a client and server (python) extension.

The GenePattern Notebook project, http://notebook.genepattern.org, will be implementing igv.js as a launchable tool within JupyterLab, as part of a collection of bioinformatics tools we're incorporating into the Jupyter architecture. As development progresses, we'll post about this on the @GenePattern twitter account.

With the latest release, support had now been added for JupyterLab 3.x.

Excellent! I'm not sure when, but hopefully soon I'll try it out.
