Hybrid content manager by default. #985

Open Carreau opened 8 years ago

Carreau commented 8 years ago

I would propose for (5.0, maybe earlier) to bake into the notebook a notion of Hybrid content manager and "mount point" or the dashboard.

The would allow to have content manager that expose in some folder "normals" ipynbs, in others ipymd...etc.

By default, "normal" content manager would be mounted on /.

I want that to have some notebook as ipymd for collaboration.

I think the 'mount points' abstraction works well for something like the Google Drive integration, where a contents manager is exposing an entirely separate storage space. I think we should think some more whether there's a better way to integrate things like ipymd, which is a different format stored in the same space. Having parallel versions of the same directories in order to open different kinds of files seems awkward.

Yeah, I wouldn't think this would be the way to support something like ipymd.
