Access of shared data in notebooks #60

Open seidlr opened 5 years ago

seidlr commented 5 years ago

I currently use TLJH to host some notebooks with voila. They access shared data from the folder /srv/data/ as described here. The notebook repositories are also stored locally on the server under /srv/repositories/ and I wonder if I could still access the local data in the notebooks when they are served with voila-gallery. What do you think?

I think it would be good to have support for this.

For now the examples are isolated from each other and they each have their own Docker image.

Maybe we could make this /srv/data folder available as a volume to the containers?

This would be great!

@seidlr another way that should also work is to provide a custom jupyterhub_config.py snippet, and place it in /opt/tljh/config/jupyterhub_config.d/. There is some documentation about this here:

https://tljh.jupyter.org/en/latest/topic/escape-hatch.html#custom-configuration-snippets

The volume mapping could then be defined in the snippet, with something like the following:

c.DockerSpawner.volumes = { '/srv/data': 'home/jovyan/data' }

@jtpio That sounds great. I'll give it a try!
