Julia builds

See original GitHub issue

We should support dependencies for Julia.

Major to-do items

Allow users to specify requirements with a REQUIRE file
Allow users to pre-compile packages before building the docker image

Julia handles dependencies in a text file similar to how Python does this.

Thoughts on that? @yuvipanda

Me and @tkelman hacked on this today at BIDS!

pre-compilation now works! We pre-compile everything that’s opted into pre-compilation 😃
We tracked down the issue with PyPlot to PyCall, and with GR to missing apt packages. We sent a PR to PyCall (https://github.com/JuliaPy/PyCall.jl/pull/411), and getting that merged would let Julia’s PyCall work with virtualenv. Until then, you can use an environment.yml to get Python / Julia combination stuff working.

Note that I haven’t deployed pre-compilation anywhere yet.

@sje30 https://binder.binder-staging.omgwtf.in/v2/gh/yuvipanda/simplejl/master now works fine (I’ve updated my repo!) and I can do using PyPlot and it works ok 😄

@choldgraf: @tkelman mentioned there’s a Julia Users discourse mailing list, perhaps we could publicize this there too? (Once we deploy this support to beta, than just to staging)

We haven’t deployed 0.6 to beta.mybinder.org for REQUIRE support yet. Shall do shortly!

hmm - are you building on your own machine? And if so try running from master…we bumped the julia version recently: #30 https://github.com/jupyter/repo2docker/pull/30
