jupyter-book

When following the tutorial steps on macOS 12.0.1 and attempting to build content for the first time, I got a traceback with this message:

ValueError: No template sub-directory with name 'script' found in the following paths: /Users/swatson/Library/Jupyter /Users/swatson/Library/Python/3.9/share/jupyter /opt/homebrew/opt/[email protected]/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/share/jupyter /usr/local/share/jupyter /usr/share/jupyter

The build failed, and I didn't know what do to do resolve this. I've attached the log from the build run.

I ran into the exact same error, and I happened to figure out a workaround:

ln -s  /opt/homebrew/share/jupyter ~/Library/Python/3.9/share/jupyter

I figured this out by running pip3 uninstall nbconvert and then observing that it would uninstall template files underneath /opt/homebrew/share/jupyter/nbconvert/templates/.... So then I reasoned that the /opt/homebrew/share/jupyter directory can't be found by Sphinx for some reason.

I'm not sure what the correct solution is, but this seems to work for now.

Heya, yeh that is a strange one, that I don't have an obvious fix for. I'd note though that in https://github.com/executablebooks/MyST-NB/pull/380 I'm removing the dependency on nbconvert, so hopefully this should then no longer be an issue 🤞

I'm having the same issue as @stefwrite and I tried using @shawwn 's solution but it isn't working for me. Still getting the same error. Any idea what is causing it?

@shawwn' suggestion didn't work directly, but ln -s /opt/homebrew/share/jupyter/nbconvert ~/Library/Jupyter did the trick for me. I searched for the templates folder to get the path. I guess the problem is related to this one?
