Add Workspace IDEs

Domino is interoperable with your favorite languages, development tools and software. Learn how to bring your favorite IDEs to Domino.

When you add a Workspace IDE to your Compute Environment, you can:

  • Upgrade to a newer version of currently supported Domino tools such as Jupyter or RStudio.

  • Add new web-based tools like JupyterLab.

  • Manage the standard default tool for your team or organization across all projects.

Note
 Your administrator must be aware that when the ShortLived.PluggableInteractiveSessionSubdomains feature flag is set to false, the httpProxy.requireSubdomain becomes required, and must be set to false. Any pluggable definitions without this flag explicitly set will be invalid and are not usable.

Configure an IDE

You must set up the Environment’s Docker image installation instructions and define how Domino will serve the tool.

Note
 Typically, an administrator or advanced user does this work. Domino recommends that you contact your administrator for help defining the tool you want to use.

  1. In your Environment, enter the instructions to install and configure a tool in the Dockerfile instructions:

###Remove any old workspaces
RUN
apt-get remove rstudio-server -y &&
 rm -rf /usr/local/lib/rstudio-server/rstudio-server &&
 rm -rf /var/opt/workspaces
###Setup workspaces directory and retrieve workspace configs
RUN mkdir /var/opt/workspaces
RUN cd /tmp && wget https://github.com/dominodatalab/workspace-configs/archive/2018q2-v1.9.zip && unzip 2018q2-v1.9.zip && cp -Rf workspace-configs-2018q2-v1.9/. /var/opt/workspaces &&

  1. Notebook properties are stored as yaml data mapping notebook names to their definitions. Enter this in the Pluggable Workspace Tools field in the Environment definition.

    For example:

jupyter:
