If what you want to do is simply deploy a Jupyter setup under Kubernetes you're much better off using Zero to JupyterHub, which is an excellent general tutorial for setting up JupyterHub in a Kubernetes environment.
This cluster is much more specifically tailored to the needs of LSST. If you want an example of how to set up persistent storage for your users, how to ship logs to a remote ELK stack, a worked example of how to subclass a spawner, or how to use an image-spawner options menu, you may find it useful.
The LSST Science Platform Notebook Aspect is a JupyterHub + JupyterLab environment that runs in a Kubernetes cluster. It provides GitHub or CILogon OAuth2 authentication, authorization via GitHub organization membership or (with the NCSA identity provider) CILogon group membership, a JupyterHub portal, and spawned-on-demand JupyterLab containers. It can also, optionally, include a filebeat configuration to log to a remote ELK stack, an image prepuller to speed startup even in an environment with heavy Lab image churn, an IPAC Firefly server, and a mechanism to allow dask nodes for parallel computing.
-
Log in with GitHub OAuth2. You must be a member of one of the organizations listed in the GitHub Organization Whitelist, and either your membership in that organization must be
publicrather thanprivate, orread:orgmust be among the scopes granted by the OAuth token. -
While the code supports CILogon with the NCSA identity provider, our assumption is that if that's what you want to do, NCSA is managing the kubernetes cluster for you and installation instructions are thus irrelevant to you.
- Choose
LSSTas your Python kernel. Then you canimport lsstand the stack and all its pre-reqs are available in the environment.
- Start by running
. /opt/lsst/software/stack/loadLSST.bash. Thensetup lsst_distriband then you're in a stack shell environment.
See Terraform Deployment README for what will eventually be the way to deploy the cluster. Note that full functionality is gated behind Terraform 0.12, which is not yet published at the time of writing.
See Deployment Tool README for an automated deployment using an LSST-developed tool.
See Manual Deployment for a full explanation of what each step of the automated deployment methods is doing.
