Re: [science-iwg] GSoC proposal for EASE

Dear all,

If you already have Jupyter running in Eclipse that is great news.

EASE offers the functionality to have scripting interpreters running directly in Eclipse (not as an external interpreter). With this you get access to all of the Java and Eclipse functionality as well as the ability to write custom modules in Java that can be shared across all supported scripting languages. Some of these modules might be used for specialized commands that could benefit from being embedded in a script in Jupyter. I have seen a couple of scripts where the actual code is rather short and the actual explanatory text was far more important.

Having this bridge between the benefits of Jupyter and all the cool stuff of Eclipse and EASE modules seems like a great tool to me. If we could combine the efforts I think we can set up a very interesting framework.

If you plan on setting up a separate project please keep me in the loop, I hope I could be of some use there as well...

Best regards,
Martin

PS: I will post a link to this thread in the EASE mailing that others that are already using EASE could give some feedback as well.
PPS: My first attempt of sending this message did not work, sorry if you get this mail twice.

Dear all,

I didn't know Jupyter before reading about it here but from what I understand about it I support Tobias' proposal and would also be in favour of a separate project in the Science IWG for integrating Jupyter. Or even with a wider scope about integrating/offering several tools for electronic scientific notebooks and for interactive science/publications.

Besides the usage by data scientists, this kind of tooling could also benefit efforts to support "reproducible research".
When APIs and services would be made available from such a project, this could be exploited for semi-automated scientific workflows, as is e.g. the scope of Triquetrum.

cheers

Hi Christian, Martin et al.

We use Jupyter on a daily basis and have developed Java libraries to interact both with local and remote kernels from an Eclipse console.

We will demonstrate these at the upcoming EclipseCon NA and it was (and is :-) our intention to launch a Jupyter Tooling project within the Science Working Group where we would then contribute these libraries.

While we have pretty clear ideas on where to take this to serve the data science community, I have no clear view yet on how to position Eclipse IDE scripting (with EASE) in this respect.

In any case, we may have interesting building blocks so let's discuss -- Jupyter tooling for Eclipse is cool!

Best,
Tobias

P.S. Attached an Eclipse console talking with a notebook server.

Subject: [science-iwg] GSoC proposal for EASE
Hi there,

on the EASE mailing list a student posted an interesting proposal [1].
He intends to integrate Jupyter [2], formerly known as the python
notebook into EASE. I intend to support this project idea and would like
to know if this is of interest for the science working group, too. As I
am - up to now - not a user of Jupyter I would like to know if you have
experience in it and if you see any requirements towards the GSoC
project which I would miss.

cheers
Christian
