interactive input using guix-jupyter-kernel

[david larsson]

Hi,

How can I ask for password input and get a password prompt in the 
notebook if I use the guix kernel in jupyter?

;;guix environment python-env <- python-ipython python-ipykernel
import getpass
password = getpass.getpass()

using a regular python kernel this works fine but not with guix kernel.


In the console output I get this:

guix[21400]: forwarding "execute_reply" from 21419, socket #<procedure 
%kernel-shell-procedure (s)> to 
"3834336638323162363266303430333461663738663337306539323561666263"

so Im wondering if this particular request just have no guile target 
code? Like a python request would perhaps terminate in code from 
python-qtconsole is what Im thinking.


I installed and started guix-jupyter like this:

echo "(list (channel (name 'guix) (url 
\"https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git\";) (commit 
\"96e1866605f3e1dd94ec3aa3cd8c41af45589b64\")))" >/tmp/channels.scm
guix time-machine -C /tmp/channels.scm -- package -i jupyter 
guix-jupyter python-jupyter-console python-qtconsole 
python-widgetsnbextension python-ipywidgets -p 
~/guix-profiles/jupyter_guix_time_machine
GUIX_PROFILE="/tmp/jupyter_guix_time_machine"
. "$GUIX_PROFILE"/etc/profile
jupyter-notebook .


Best regards,
