Root access for Jupyter/iPython Notebook

Question

I\'m trying to use the bash kernel in iPython/Jupyter notebook, but I need sudo access within the notebook itself.

I\'ve tried $ sudo jupyter notebook to ru

Answer 1

The solution as described here. Is to use

sudo -E env "PATH=$PATH" jupyter notebook

Basically the binary to call jupyter notebook is in the user's PATH variable, but not for root.

Best regards.

Answer 2

I am running the neopixel library from a jupyter notebook.

The only thing that worked for me was first running the "sudo su" command to move into the root environment and then run "jupyter notebook" (--allow-root alone didn't work for me).
