Jupyter notebook server extension to proxy web services. This enables users to reach arbitrary web services running within their spawned Jupyter server. GET and POST are supported.
A user starts a web service via New > Terminal:
echo "hello world" > index.html
python -m http.server 8001
The service is proxied off of /proxy/ at https://address.of.notebook.server/user/theuser/proxy/8001.
Run
pip install git+https://github.com/ryanlovett/nbserverproxy
jupyter serverextension enable --py nbserverproxy
