# GPU-Jupyter
#### Leverage Jupyter Notebooks with the power of your NVIDIA GPU and perform GPU calculations using Tensorflow and Pytorch in collaborative notebooks.
![Jupyterlab Overview](/extra/jupyterlab-overview.png)
First of all, thanks to [hub.docker.com/u/jupyter](https://hub.docker.com/u/jupyter)
for creating and maintaining a robost Python, R and Julia toolstack for Data Analytics/Science
applications. This project uses the NVIDIA CUDA image as a basis image and installs their
toolstack on top of it to enable GPU calculations in the Jupyter notebooks.

5. [Configuration](#configuration)
6. [Issues and Contributing](#issues-and-contributing)
## Requirements
1. Install [Docker](https://www.docker.com/community-edition#/download) version **1.10.0+**
and [Docker Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/) version **1.6.0+**.
2. A NVIDIA GPU
3. Get access to use your GPU via the CUDA drivers, check out this
[medium article](https://medium.com/@christoph.schranz/set-up-your-own-gpu-based-jupyterlab-e0d45fcacf43).
The CUDA toolkit is not required on the host system, as it will be deployed
in [NVIDIA-docker](https://github.com/NVIDIA/nvidia-docker).
4. Clone the Repository or pull the image from
[Dockerhub](https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/cschranz/gpu-jupyter):
```bash
git clone https://github.com/iot-salzburg/gpu-jupyter.git
cd gpu-jupyter
```
## Quickstart
First of all, it is necessary to generate the `Dockerfile` based on the latest toolstack of
[hub.docker.com/u/jupyter](https://hub.docker.com/u/jupyter).
As soon as you have access to your GPU locally (it can be tested via a Tensorflow or PyTorch
directly on the host node), you can run these commands to start the jupyter notebook via
docker-compose (internally):
```bash
./generate_Dockerfile.sh
docker build -t gpu-jupyter .build/
docker run -d -p [port]:8888 gpu-jupyter
```
Alternatively, you can configure the environment in `docker-compose.yml` and run
this to deploy the `GPU-Jupyter` via docker-compose (under-the-hood):
```bash
./generate_Dockerfile.sh
./start-local.sh -p 8888 # where -p stands for the port of the service
```
Both options will run *GPU-Jupyter* by default on [localhost:8888](http://localhost:8888) with the default
password `asdf`.
## Tracing
With these commands we can see if everything worked well:
```bash
docker-compose ps
docker logs [service-name]
```
In order to stop the local deployment, run:
```bash
./stop-local.sh
```
## Deployment in the Docker Swarm
A Jupyter instance often requires data from other services.
If that data-source is containerized in Docker and sharing a port for communication shouldn't be allowed, e.g., for security reasons,
then connecting the data-source with *GPU-Jupyter* within a Docker Swarm is a great option!
### Set up Docker Swarm and Registry
This step requires a running [Docker Swarm](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x843GyFRIIY) on a cluster or at least on this node.
In order to register custom images in a local Docker Swarm cluster,
a registry instance must be deployed in advance.
Note that the we are using the port 5001, as many services use the default port 5000.
```bash
sudo docker service create --name registry --publish published=5001,target=5000 registry:2
curl 127.0.0.1:5001/v2/
```
This should output `{}`. \
Afterwards, check if the registry service is available using `docker service ls`.
### Configure the shared Docker network
Additionally, *GPU-Jupyter* is connected to the data-source via the same *docker-network*. Therefore, This network must be set to **attachable** in the source's `docker-compose.yml`:
```yml
services:
data-source-service:
...
networks:
- default
- datastack
...
networks:
datastack:
driver: overlay
attachable: true
```
In this example,
* the docker stack was deployed in Docker swarm with the name **elk** (`docker stack deploy ... elk`),
* the docker network has the name **datastack** within the `docker-compose.yml` file,
* this network is configured to be attachable in the `docker-compose.yml` file
* and the docker network has the name **elk_datastack**, see the following output:
```bash
sudo docker network ls
# ...
# [UID] elk_datastack overlay swarm
# ...
```
The docker network name **elk_datastack** is used in the next step as a parameter.
### Start GPU-Jupyter in Docker Swarm
Finally, *GPU-Jupyter* can be deployed in the Docker Swarm with the shared network, using:
```bash
./generate_Dockerfile.sh
./add-to-swarm.sh -p [port] -n [docker-network] -r [registry-port]
# e.g. ./add-to-swarm.sh -p 8848 -n elk_datastack -r 5001
```
where:
* **-p:** port specifies the port on which the service will be available.
* **-n:** docker-network is the name of the attachable network from the previous step, e.g., here it is **elk_datastack**.
* **-r:** registry port is the port that is published by the registry service, see [Set up Docker Swarm and Registry](set-up-docker-swarm-and-registry).
Now, *gpu-jupyter* will be accessable here on [localhost:8848](http://localhost:8848) with the default password `asdf` and shares the network with the other data-source, i.e., all ports of the data-source will be accessable within *GPU-Jupyter*, even if they aren't routed it the source's `docker-compose` file.
Check if everything works well using:
```bash
sudo docker service ps gpu_gpu-jupyter
docker service ps gpu_gpu-jupyter
```
In order to remove the service from the swarm, use:
```bash
./remove-from-swarm.sh
```
## Configuration
Please set a new password using `src/jupyter_notebook_config.json`.
Therefore, hash your password in the form (password)(salt) using a sha1 hash generator, e.g., the sha1 generator of [sha1-online.com](http://www.sha1-online.com/).
The input with the default password `asdf` is appended by a arbitrary salt `e49e73b0eb0e` to `asdfe49e73b0eb0e` and should yield the hash string as shown in the config below.
**Never give away your own unhashed password!**
Then update the config file as shown below and restart the service.
```json
{
"NotebookApp": {
"password": "sha1:e49e73b0eb0e:32edae7a5fd119045e699a0bd04f90819ca90cd6"
}
}
