Nohup allows us to logout without killing the processes our terminal started and the ampersand ( &) sends nohup to the background freeing the terminal (in case you want to do something else after launching it…). To launch the Jupyter Notebook server (on the remote computer) and keep it running after we logout, we will need help from our friend nohup. If you just carelessly open things, you are going to expose your server. Step 1 is to ssh into your remote machine and launch Jupyter Notebook to a local port with the -no-browser option. The problem with that solution, in my opinion, is the complexity. Jupyter is capable to serve, just like a web server, notebooks directly to any browser.

Access your remote server from your browser.

Create a SSH tunnel to redirect a local port to the server.

Launch a Jupyter Notebook server without automatically opening a browser.

Ok, let’s make a list of the things we want to learn here: However, currently it supports more than 40 programming languages including Python, R, Julia, Ruby and Scala (this is the first time I’ve read about Scala…). In the past, Jupyter notebooks used to be called IPython notebooks, therefore it was Python only. One use case for SSH port-forwarding is to start a Jupyter notebook server on a remote machine and open it locally in your web browser using a URL like this. I’ve never tested Jupyter with other languages but Python, so I will tell you about my experiences using Python.

I can also easily share things by exporting a notebook as HTML or PDF or uploading it to a place where there’s a notebook viewer (you can see an example here). Why do I love those notebooks? Probably it’s started long time ago while I still was a Mathematica, Maple and MuPad user, but I would say I like notebooks mainly because I can keep, in one place, code, comments (pure text, Markdown, HTML, LaTeX, animations, external images/videos, etc) and, the most important, results.

This is what I was doing just before start writing this post. Running a Jupyter Notebook (IPython) on a remote server ĭo you know what is a Jupyter Notebook? If you don’t, please, have a look at the previous link and come back later… just joking… ok, seriously, check the previous link because they will do a much better job explaining what is a Jupyter Notebook than me.
