Important : cl-jupyter is entering maintenance, I do not plan further enhancement beyond bug fixes. A derivative of cl-jupyter with more features supported is available at: https://github.com/yitzchak/common-lisp-jupyter

Requirements

To try cl-jupyter you need :

a Common lisp implementation, for now
- either SBCL 1.3.x or above (with native threads enabled)
- or Clozure CL 1.10 or above (with native threads enabled) ...
- CLASP supported on a separate 'widget' branch (drmeister version)
- ECL is planned, for other implementations please fill an issue.
Quicklisp (cf. http://www.quicklisp.org)
Python 3.x (cf. http://www.python.org)
Jupyter 4.x (cf. http://www.jupyter.org)

Quick install

Please run the installation script :

python3 ./install-cl-jupyter.py

By default, cl-jupyter assumes SBCL as the default lisp implementation. Using CCL instead requires the following command line:

python3 ./install-cl-jupyter.py  --lisp=ccl

Note: cl-jupyter seems to work better with CCL on MacOS but on Linux everything's fine with SBCL and it is the most tested configuration. Alas, it seems cl-jupyter does not work on Windows (I cannot try myself). If using a VM I would recommend the Linux/SBCL configuration.

As an optional step, you can pre-install the quicklisp dependencies to avoid a veeeerrrry long first startup.

using SBCL
```
sbcl --load ./cl-jupyter.lisp
```
using CCL
```
ccl --load ./cl-jupyter.lisp
```

Running cl-jupyter

The following commnad starts the jupyter notebook environment.

    jupyter notebook

The file about-cl-jupyter.ipynb is an example of a Lisp-based notebook.

The file about-cl-jupyter.pdf is a printable PDF version of this notebook that can be generated by the Jupyter nbconvert tool.

Note: the jupyter console and qtconsole are not (well) supported.

... have fun !
