running conda's jupyter on docker

Question

I am using the docker image continuumio/anaconda3 and want to start jupyter notebook server with conda via browser ...

docker run -i -t -p 8888:8888 continuumio/anaconda3 /bin/bash -c "/opt/conda/bin/conda install jupyter -y --quiet && mkdir /opt/notebooks && /opt/conda/bin/jupyter notebook --notebook-dir=/opt/notebooks --ip='*' --port=8888 --no-browser"

which results in ...

Package plan for installation in environment /opt/conda:

The following packages will be UPDATED:

    anaconda: 5.0.1-py36hd30a520_1  --> custom-py36hbbc8b67_0
    conda:    4.3.30-py36h5d9f9f4_0 --> 4.4.10-py36_0        
    jupyter:  1.0.0-py36h9896ce5_0  --> 1.0.0-py36_4         
    pycosat:  0.6.2-py36h1a0ea17_1  --> 0.6.3-py36h0a5515d_0

and if I use

$ docker run -p 8888:8888 -i -t continuumio/anaconda3 /bin/bash
root@083f8fbb5d3b:/# jupyter notebook

it gives ...

How should I run Jupyter notebook?

Answer 1

Thanks Mr. darthbirth,

$ docker run -p 8888:8888 -i -t continuumio/anaconda3 /bin/bash

jupyter notebook --ip=0.0.0.0 --port=8888 --allow-root

and the you have Jupyter notebook up and running.

Press ctrl and click the "login with a token" link on your terminal that looks like,

http://0.0.0.0:8888/?token= ...

or

http://127.0.0.1:8888/?token= ...
