Add Notebook (.ipynb file) to Jupyter Lab Launcher

JupyterLab extensions

Hi,

Does any know how to add an icon to the Jupyter Lab Launcher?

I’ve read here (Add Notebook (.ipynb file) to Launcher · Issue #5031 · jupyterlab/jupyterlab · GitHub) that the file to update is “jupyterlab/packages/terminal-extension/src/index.ts”, but this does not appear to exist in my version of Jupyter Lab (3.0.18)

Thanks in advance.
Rich.

Can you help us explain what the use case is? i.e. are you:

  • a developer that wants to add an extension
  • a user that wants to create a launcher card for some arbitrary thing

Thanks for the fast reply.

I am a notebook developer using Jupyter Lab. I would like to add an icon to run a notebook (.ipynb file) on the launcher. Similar to the icons shown below:

Hi, you can use jupyter_app_launcher (GitHub - trungleduc/jupyter_app_launcher: A JupyterLab extension to create custom launcher entries.) to do this
