Running Jupyter as service on ubuntu with systemd
Raw
readme.md

How to use

  1. Copy the jupyter.service file to /etc/systemd/system/jupyter.service
  2. Edit that file to change the home directory
  3. Setup a password on jupyter by running jupyter notebook password
  4. Run systemctl daemon-reload to notify systemd about the new service
  5. Run systemctl enable jupyter.service to enable it, so it will start every time
  6. Run systemctl start jupyter.service to start it the first time. After that, because of the WantedBy=graphical.target the service will be run on login

On SELinux systems (including fedora) you need to allow the system to execute things in the anaconda directory. To do this you need to run (replacing /home/wjadams with your home directory)

sudo semanage fcontext -a -t bin_t '/home/wjadams/anaconda3/bin.*'
sudo chcon -Rv -u system_u -t bin_t '/home/wjadams/anaconda3/bin'
sudo restorecon -R -v '/home/wjadams/anaconda3/bin'

And then the system should allow you to run jupyter-notebook from that directory
