Jupyter Notebook with IRuby Kernel

This README provides instructions for setting up and running Jupyter Notebook with the IRuby kernel.

Using Visual Studio Code Dev Containers

This setup works seamlessly with Visual Studio Code Dev Containers, allowing you to develop in a consistent and isolated environment.

Steps to Use Dev Containers

1. Install Prerequisites:

   • Ensure you have Visual Studio Code installed.
   • Install the Dev Containers extension.

2. Clone the Repository: Clone your project repository if you haven’t already:

   git clone https://github.com/JuanPabloGil/Jupyter-Ruby-DevContainer.git

Open in Dev Container:

Open the folder in Visual Studio Code.

When prompted, click Reopen in Container. If not prompted, use the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P or Cmd+Shift+P on macOS) and select Remote-Containers: Reopen in Container.

Build and Register the IRuby Kernel: Inside the Dev Container terminal, run:

iruby register --force

Start the Jupyter Notebook Server: Start the server with:

jupyter notebook --ip 0.0.0.0 --port 8888 --no-browser --allow-root

Select the IRuby Kernel: Once the notebook interface is open in your browser, choose the IRuby kernel from the kernel selection menu.
