py-notebook: script to launch with jupyter is not created

[michelle.lynn.gill@…]

The Jupyter version of notebook does not create a command line launch script and thus will not launch from the command line with jupyter notebook.

Other subports in this new family, such as py-nbconvert, have a script associated with them called jupyter-nbconvert-2.7 and jupyter-nbconvert-3.4 (for python 2.7 and 3.4), that resides in /Volumes/Files/macports/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/$pythonversion/bin/jupyter and is linked to in MacPorts bin directory.

The analogous version of this script, presumably called jupyter-notebook-$pythonversion for the notebook, is nowhere to be found in my installation. When I create such a script (see below) and name/link it appropriately, the notebook will launch from the command line as expected.

Here is the script that allows me to launch notebook for python 2.7. I borrowed most of this code from what is installed by conda for notebook.

#!/Volumes/Files/macports/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python
if __name__ == '__main__':
    import sys
    from notebook.notebookapp import main

    sys.exit(main())

This is a completely fresh installation of MacPorts as I had to setup a new computer yesterday. Thus, there shouldn't be any IPython 3 leftovers causing this issue. Also of note is that my MacPorts installation is in a custom location, so all of my ports are compiled from source.

This command works:

jupyter-2.7 notebook-2.7

But there should be something like

sudo port select --set jupyter jupyter27

to allow the simple command

jupyter notebook

This command does not work for me:

sudo port select --set jupiter jupyter27

Running jupyter-2.7 does work, but it looks like port select does not have jupyter listed.

If I run sudo port select --summary, I get this:
