GitLab example does not work properly

The PR https://github.com/jupyterlite/jupyterlite/pull/203 added a nice code snippet to set up JupyterLite in GitLab. I wanted to reproduce this with a minimal example: This GitLab repo produces this JupyterLite page without problems. The only problem: The example notebook hello.ipynb does not show up, the notebook explorer is empty. @benabel do you have an idea where I have to copy the notebook? Copying it into the content/ folder does not work. I’ve run this .gitlab-ci.yml file:

image: python
pages:
  stage: deploy
  before_script:
    - python -m pip install jupyterlite
    - mkdir -p content/
    - cp hello.ipynb content/

  script:
    - jupyter lite build --contents content --output-dir public
  artifacts:
    paths:
      - public # mandatory, other folder won't work
  only:
    - main # the branch you want to publish

Also, thanks @benabel for the example at https://gitlab.com/benabel/jupyterlite-template , but unfortunately this gives currently the following error (full log here) when I run it in the Gitlab CI:

Traceback (most recent call last):

I think this might be a nice addition to the hint at:

Sure, would you like to submit a PR? Thanks!

My current jupyter-lite.json file looks like this, and it does not disable the tour:

This file seems to be placed under /repl/jupyter-lite.json at the moment. Maybe try to move it to the parent folder?

I will do that 😃

Thanks for the hint! Moving it to the parent folder solved the problem.
