acoustics image discussion

[eeholmes]

@gavinmacaulay I made a few fixes to the acoustics image and the pip installed packages are now there.

turns out pip installed needed to save a temp file that it couldn't save to /tmp2. Fixed.

Your data store was going to /home but that is wiped out by the persistent home at startup. Fixed so it appears at /data_store_test

Note, the data_store_test will be created new every time someone restarts their server. If you expect to need to make updates during the event and have folks pull stuff in, check out nbgitpuller which is designed to pull in material from github repos.

@eeholmes Thanks for sorting those problems. Works fine for me now.

Is there a way to have a set of files placed in the user's home directory when their server is created? Or is having the users pull from a repo the usual way to get files distributed to each server?

@jmjech - FYI, a new discussion to follow :)

Check out nbgitpuller

That is a typical approach for getting files into user directories for workshops. However I typically use the shared directory. Everyone has access to that. Put stuff there that you want users to have access to
