Gurobi with JupyterHub

Hello,

I manage a JupyterHub under Docker/Swarm, for academic purposes.

Using a programming language (Juila or another) as a support for teaching something else can be implemented using (at least) three ways:

- the BYOD way: students have to install the software on their personal computers. The lecturer spends a lot of time solving installation problems

- Hands-on session rooms: the Computer science department staff has to maintain the computers students use. It can be a huge load, if lecturers use many different languages

- JupyterHub: a centralized pool of servers runs it. The students have just to launch a web browser.

I haven't found any mention of jupyterHub associated with Gurobi, and I ask myself why.

Thanks for any information on this point

  Hi Henri,

  This may be not relevant anymore, but I wanted to close this question.

  When installing Gurobi via pip or conda, a size-restricted license is included that allows using Gurobi without any further licensing steps required. This is also how our examples on Google Colab are set up: Optimization with Python - Jupyter Notebook Modeling Examples - Gurobi

  If you are hosting your own JupyterHub, you can just set up a free academic site license that serves all users that run their notebooks on that server.

  Please excuse us for not replying earlier!

  Cheers,
  Matthias
