JupyterLab - An extensible computational environment for Jupyter.
This launches a Tornado based HTML Server that serves up an HTML5/Javascript
JupyterLab client.
JupyterLab has three different modes of running:
* Core mode (`--core-mode`): in this mode JupyterLab will run using the JavaScript
assets contained in the installed `jupyterlab` Python package. In core mode, no
extensions are enabled. This is the default in a stable JupyterLab release if you
have no extensions installed.
* Dev mode (`--dev-mode`): uses the unpublished local JavaScript packages in the
`dev_mode` folder. In this case JupyterLab will show a red stripe at the top of
the page. It can only be used if JupyterLab is installed as `pip install -e .`.
* App mode: JupyterLab allows multiple JupyterLab "applications" to be
created by the user with different combinations of extensions. The `--app-dir` can
be used to set a directory for different applications. The default application
path can be found using `jupyter lab path`.
Subcommands
===========
Subcommands are launched as `lab cmd [args]`. For information on using
subcommand 'cmd', do: `lab cmd -h`.

Options
=======
The options below are convenience aliases to configurable class-options,
as listed in the "Equivalent to" description-line of the aliases.
To see all configurable class-options for some <cmd>, use:
<cmd> --help-all
--debug
Set debug level for the extension and underlying server applications.
Equivalent to: [--ServerApp.log_level=DEBUG --ExtensionApp.log_level=DEBUG]
--show-config
Show the application's configuration (human-readable format)
Equivalent to: [--Application.show_config=True]
--show-config-json
Show the application's configuration (json format)
Equivalent to: [--Application.show_config_json=True]

--allow-root
Allow the server to be run from root user.
Equivalent to: [--ServerApp.allow_root=True]
--no-browser
Prevent the opening of the default url in the browser.
Equivalent to: [--ServerApp.open_browser=False --ExtensionApp.open_browser=False]
--autoreload
Autoreload the webapp
Enable reloading of the tornado webapp and all imported Python packages
when any changes are made to any Python src files in server or
extensions.
Equivalent to: [--ServerApp.autoreload=True]
--script
DEPRECATED, IGNORED
Equivalent to: [--FileContentsManager.save_script=True]
--no-script

Equivalent to: [--FileContentsManager.save_script=False]
--core-mode
Start the app in core mode.
Equivalent to: [--LabApp.core_mode=True]
--dev-mode
Start the app in dev mode for running from source.
Equivalent to: [--LabApp.dev_mode=True]
--skip-dev-build
Skip the initial install and JS build of the app in dev mode.
Equivalent to: [--LabApp.skip_dev_build=True]
--watch
Start the app in watch mode.
Equivalent to: [--LabApp.watch=True]
--splice-source
Splice source packages into app directory.
Equivalent to: [--LabApp.splice_source=True]
--expose-app-in-browser
Expose the global app instance to browser via window.jupyterapp.
Equivalent to: [--LabApp.expose_app_in_browser=True]
--extensions-in-dev-mode
Load prebuilt extensions in dev-mode.
Equivalent to: [--LabApp.extensions_in_dev_mode=True]
--collaborative
To enable real-time collaboration, you must install the extension `jupyter_collaboration`.
You can install it using pip for example:
python -m pip install jupyter_collaboration
This flag is now deprecated and will be removed in JupyterLab v5.
Equivalent to: [--LabApp.collaborative=True]
--custom-css

Default: 30
Equivalent to: [--Application.log_level]
--config=<Unicode>
Full path of a config file.
Default: ''
Equivalent to: [--JupyterApp.config_file]
--ip=<Unicode>
The IP address the Jupyter server will listen on.
Default: 'localhost'
Equivalent to: [--ServerApp.ip]
--port=<Int>
The port the server will listen on (env: JUPYTER_PORT).
Default: 0
Equivalent to: [--ServerApp.port]
--port-retries=<Int>
The number of additional ports to try if the specified port is not available
(env: JUPYTER_PORT_RETRIES).

--notebook-dir=<Unicode>
The directory to use for notebooks and kernels.
Default: ''
Equivalent to: [--ServerApp.root_dir]
--browser=<Unicode>
Specify what command to use to invoke a web browser when starting the
server. If not specified, the default browser will be determined by the
`webbrowser` standard library module, which allows setting of the BROWSER
environment variable to override it.
Default: ''
Equivalent to: [--ServerApp.browser]
--pylab=<Unicode>
DISABLED: use %pylab or %matplotlib in the notebook to enable matplotlib.
Default: 'disabled'

Examples
--------
jupyter lab # start JupyterLab
jupyter lab --dev-mode # start JupyterLab in development mode, with no extensions
jupyter lab --core-mode # start JupyterLab in core mode, with no extensions
jupyter lab --app-dir=~/myjupyterlabapp # start JupyterLab with a particular set of extensions
jupyter lab --certfile=mycert.pem # use SSL/TLS certificate
