Though when I try to test from the example I’m not getting any button. JL 4: Toolbar Button with icon and text has some suggestions, though I’m not getting any button when testing with that either.
Is there a porting document for how to move from the older to newer extension layout? Or any hints on how I can get a toolbar button working as an extension?
I don’t know if this helps but I had to do the same thing – port an old toolbar button to the JH 4/NB 7 extension format.
Here is the repo for the updated toolbar button:
I did not really “port it”. I made a new repo, set it up correctly for a toolbar button, and then grabbed relevant business logic to render it correctly from the old repo.
This was helpful. Got me on the right path for installing the example. pip install -e "git+https://github.com/jupyterlab/extension-examples.git#egg=jupyterlab-examples-toolbar-button&subdirectory=toolbar-button"
Being the thing that I needed. Now to see if I can get the code updated
@Sean_Morris from your code I can see that you’ve figured out something that I’m struggling with.
If I start with the instructions from Extension Tutorial — JupyterLab 4.1.2 documentation I can get an installed extension. If I then copy in the src/index.ts and schema/plugin.json from: extension-examples/toolbar-button at main · jupyterlab/extension-examples · GitHub
My extension still installs, but I do not see the toolbar button. Meanwhile if I run a pip install -ve . from the toolbar button example directory directly it installs the toolbar button example. The only difference that I found of note was in package.json there is a reference to “schemaDir” which wasn’t created from the tutorial. Though duplicating it does not seem to assist.
