Run remotely, see results locally?

Jupynium looks like a really cool project and it seemed like it might be able to give me the same experience as running Python code cells in a remote VSCode session, where the code runs in a remote environment, but the results show up locally.

However, I seem to have misunderstood how this works. Steps I followed:

• In my remote environment:
  • pip install jupynium
  • nvim --listen 0.0.0.0:18898 test.ju.py
• Local:
  • pip install jupynium
  • jupynium --nvim_listen_addr remote:18898
• Remote:
  • :JupyniumStartSync

  • # %%
    !hostname

• Now I expected the code to run on the remote machine, but it instead runs on my local machine.

Is there a way to get the experience that I'm looking for?

For this to work, you should open the Jupyter Notebook manually on the remote machine, and port forward it so that localhost:8888 connects to the remote Jupyter Notebook.

Right, but you're just talking about plain Jupyter notebooks? Or is it still possible to control Jupyter from neovim in this case?

Jupynium controls Jupyter Notebook through the browser. In other words it doesn't need an external extension. Once it loads Jupyter Notebook from the browser it can control it.

As a convenience feature, it also start Jupyter Notebook automatically (but locally only) if it can't connect to the localhost:8888.
