Hi,

What's currently the recommended way of installing the Jupyter stack of repositories? Is it still the same as described in Min's blog post [1] form mid-April? I just tried "pip install -r requirements.txt" with the file requirements.txt from [2] (linked in the blog post), but I ran into the following error:

==>
Collecting nbformat (from jupyter-notebook->-r requirements.txt (line 9))
  Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement nbformat (from jupyter-notebook->-r requirements.txt (line 9)) (from versions: )
  Some externally hosted files were ignored as access to them may be unreliable (use --allow-external nbformat to allow).
No matching distribution found for nbformat (from jupyter-notebook->-r requirements.txt (line 9))
<==

This feels like it may be trivial to solve, but it's midnight here and before I dig deeper into it (or install all the repos by hand) I just wanted to make sure I'm not missing a more recent method of installing Jupyter.

Many thanks,
Max

Hi, 

You need to s/jupyter_// for many project, as there was yet another rename. 
in particular, jupyter_notebook -> notebook, same for qtconsole, ipython_kernel to ipykernel
and jupyter_nbformat to nnbformat.

While the repo are not on 4.0 it will still need a bit of manual installation to get all the things right.

Many but not all?

Please, if someone can, post an up-to-date recipe.

No, not all. 

Each repository have a (changing) requirement.txt file that can be use .

Many thanks for the pointer, Matthias! I had missed the more recent repo renames.

@John: You can check the current names on https://github.com/jupyter. For convenience, I'm attaching the updated 'requirements.txt' that did the job for me below.

After tweaking the repo names the installation worked fine, but in order for the jupyter notebook dashboard to be displayed correctly I also needed to install node/npm (see the comments at the bottom of https://github.com/jupyter/notebook).

Many thanks again,
Max
