Setting Up Jupyterlab With Ruby Kernel (MacOS)

Many are the reasons I choose to setup JupyterLabs with a Ruby Kernel, I will however not disclose those reasons :)

• Setup python, pip, jupyter / jupyterlabs , ruby (soo many tutorials out there)
• Setup the ruby kernel, especially on MacOS, not that many.

gem install cztop ffi-_rzmq iruby

• Consider installing the optional dependencies to get additional functionality (gem install):

  • pry
  • pry-doc
  • awesome_print
  • gnuplot
  • rubyvis
  • nyaplot
  • cztop
  • rbczmq***

• ‘rbczmq’ might fail if your build tools are not setup. To do that, run: brew insall libtool autoconf automake and rerun gem install rbczmq

• Run iruby register --force

• Restart your jupyterlab notebook to find your ruby kernel included.
