Testing if the notebook runs fine with pyodide-kernel

[kp992]

I am trying to see if I can automate the testing of .ipynb notebooks after they are served using jupyter-lite. The problem is given a python notebook, the script should output whether the execution completed successfully or not. When I installed using

pip install jupyterlite-pyodide-kernel

I can't see the kernel in the kernel list:

% jupyter kernelspec list
Available kernels:
  python3                     /Users/kpl/mambaforge/envs/qe/share/jupyter/kernels/python3
  xpython-raw                 /Users/kpl/mambaforge/envs/qe/share/jupyter/kernels/xpython-raw

How do I test the notebooks or how do I fix the installation to see this in kernel list.

A workaround, for now, could be in this form (if you use the Pyodide kernel):

# convert the notebook to a Python file
python -m pip install jupytext
python -m jupytext --to py your_notebook.ipynb # or py:percent if you like

# install Pyodide and activate
python -m pip install pyodide-build
pyodide xbuildenv install 0.27.0 # or your preferred Pyodide version
pyodide venv .venv-pyodide
source .venv-pyodide/bin/activate

# run the notebook as a Python file
python my_notebook.py

As a more robust solution, maybe it can be possible to run the notebook as one usually does – it would require making the Pyodide/Xeus kernels visible in the kernel list and making it possible for notebook testing tools like papermill or nbmake to connect to them.
