You have two ways in which you can run the tutoriallocally.
To run the tutorial locally, you should first installconda (ormamba).
It is also suggested that you have a recent version ofgit
. Check outhow to installgit
on your operating system.
Go to the directory on your machine where you want to download the material and clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/empa-scientific-it/python-tutorial
Alternatively, you can manually download a ZIP archive with the latest version of the material:
Extract the archive in a directory of your choice.
Enter the tutorial folder with
cd /path/to/python-tutorial
You should now create a new environment withconda
:
conda env create -f binder/environment.yml
Warning
If you are on Windows and using Command Prompt or the PowerShell, please make sure to adjust the paths in the commands above accordingly.
Then activate the environment with
conda activate python-tutorial
You can update the existing environment (that is, downloading the latest version of the packages) with:
conda env update -f binder/environment.yml
Finally, launch JupyterLab with
jupyter lab
Note
The following instructions are for Windows. With minor changes, the steps work on macOS or Linux as well.
Install Docker Desktop: First, you need to install Docker Desktop on your Windows machine. You can download it from the official Docker website:https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop.
Create a folder: Open File Explorer and create a new folder where you want to save the tutorial's materials. For example, you could create a folder called "python-tutorial" on your Desktop.
Open PowerShell: Once Docker Desktop is installed, open PowerShell on your Windows machine. You can do this by pressing the "Windows" key and typing "PowerShell" in the search bar.
Pull the Docker image: In PowerShell, run the following command to pull the Docker image:
docker pull ghcr.io/empa-scientific-it/python-tutorial:latest
Note
Thelatest
tag points to the CPU-only variant of the image, which is optimized for size and compatibility. If you have a CUDA-compatible GPU and want to use GPU acceleration for PyTorch operations, you can use the CUDA-enabled variant by replacinglatest
withcuda
:
docker pull ghcr.io/empa-scientific-it/python-tutorial:cuda
Important
Using the CUDA variant requires a NVIDIA GPU with compatible drivers properly installed and configured for Docker. SeeNVIDIA Container Toolkit for setup instructions.
- Run the Docker container: Once the image is downloaded, run the following command to start a Docker container from the image:
docker run -p 8888:8888 --name python_tutorial -v /path/to/python-tutorial:/home/jovyan/python-tutorial ghcr.io/empa-scientific-it/python-tutorial:latest jupyter lab --ip 0.0.0.0 --no-browser
Note
If you pulled the CUDA variant, replace:latest
with:cuda
in the command above.
Replace/path/to/python-tutorial
with the path to the folder you created in step 2, for exampleC:/Users/yourusername/Desktop/python-tutorial
.
Note
The above command willmirror the content of your local folder (e.g.,C:/Users/yourusername/Desktop/python-tutorial
) to the~/python-tutorial
folderinside the container. In this way, every file or folder you copy or create into~/python-tutorial
will be saved on your machine, and will remain thereeven if you stop Docker.
- Access the Jupyter Notebook: Open a web browser and navigate to
http://localhost:8888/lab
. You should see the Jupyter Notebook interface. Enter the token provided in the PowerShell console to access the notebook. Alternatively, you can directly click on the link that appears in the PowerShell after the container has started.
You can now use the Jupyter in the Docker container to run the python-tutorial. When you're done, you can stop the container by pressingCtrl+C
in the PowerShell console.
Note
If you want to restart the container, you can simply run the commanddocker container start python_tutorial
.
