Hi Scilab Team

Sorry that i bother you, but i have this annoying thing with running jupyter notebook inside VS-Code.

there i want to run scilab-kernel, but despite i installed anything from scilab, the kernel is not found.

I’m sure there is some silly path thing but i dont know where to find the right configuration entry

Hi.

Does the Scilab kernel start when you open a notebook within Jupyter (i.e. from a browser) ?

In fact it is supposed to work, at least it works on my PC (but I don’t use it very much, only to build Windows version of atoms packages with binaries…) :

I don’t remember how I made it…

Do you have a Scilab folder in AppData/Roaming/Jupyter/kernels ?

ok, i somehow did it with choose another kernel and then jupyter-kernel and there was Scilab?

it works, but not so intuitive. 🙂

Thank you for your cooperation and patience.

M.f.g. Pascal

In fact when you select the kernel (if you create a notebook from scratch) the Scilab kernel should appear as “Scilab” + the path of your Python interpreter :

yes it was so, but to find this was hard and when you see the path you can missed it

In order to make notebooks with Scilab work within VSCode, likely, the Scilab extension must be installed. If the notebook does not run, you can, once for all, select the kernel as explained above.
