Hello Claude, the notebook server and the kernel where your code cells execute are two different processes. The notebook server cannot directly update the variables in your kernel.
You could translate the variable definitions received in your POST request to code, and send that code for execution to the kernel. Or you could define a custom message that the notebook server sends to the kernel, and install some handler code in the kernel that interprets these messages. The second approach has the advantage that you don't need language-specific logic in the notebook server. https://jupyter-client.readthedocs.io/en/stable/messaging.html Either way, allowing an external server to send POST requests that change the state of kernel processes sounds like an attack vector. Please be very careful to properly authenticate these requests. hope this helps, Roland -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Project Jupyter" group.
