Is it possible to run a pypy kernel in the Jupyter notebook?
You can install Jupyter with pypy:
pypy-pip install jupyter
The are problems on Mac OS X. If the install fails complaining a about gnureadline
. Try this:
pypy-pip install --no-deps jupyter
Than start with:
pypy-ipython notebook
My pypy-ipython
looks like this:
#!/usr/local/bin/pypy
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import re
import sys
from IPython import start_ipython
if __name__ == '__main__':
sys.argv[0] = re.sub(r'(-script\.pyw|\.exe)?$', '', sys.argv[0])
sys.exit(start_ipython())
In a notebook:
In [1]: import sys
In [2]: sys.version
Out[2]:
'2.7.9 (295ee98b6928, May 31 2015, 07:28:49)\n[PyPy 2.6.0 with GCC 4.2.1 Compatible Apple LLVM 5.1 (clang-503.0.40)]'
The notebook requires Python 2.7 or 3.3+. PyPy for Python3.3 should be out soon.
My pypy-pip
this executable file /usr/local/bin//pypy-pip
with this content:
#!/usr/local/bin/pypy
# EASY-INSTALL-ENTRY-SCRIPT: 'pip','console_scripts','pip'
__requires__ = 'pip'
import sys
from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
if __name__ == '__main__':
sys.exit(
load_entry_point('pip', 'console_scripts', 'pip')()
)
Provided you have a system-wide / user installation of jupyter
. You can follow:
pypy3 -m venv PyPy3
source PyPy3/bin/activate # in POSIX, or...
PyPy3\Scripts\activate.bat # in Windows
pypy3 -m pip install ipykernel
ipython kernel install --user --name=PyPy3
Now exit the virtual environment and verify installation:
jupyter kernelspec list
Open Jupyter notebook or lab interface.
