==============================
Adding a third-party extension
==============================

Anaconda officially supports and tests functionality of the
default environment(s) only for those extensions that ship with
AEN.

It is possible to add third-party and custom extensions from
conda-forge or pip, but doing so may cause instability in your
default project environments or kernels.

CAUTION: Anaconda does not officially support third-party
extensions. This section is informational only.


Installing unofficial Jupyter Notebook extensions for AEN
=========================================================

TIP: Always back up and verify your complete system before installing 
extensions.

The jupyter-contrib-nbextensions extensions are installed on a
compute node.

The default conda executable directory for AEN is
``/opt/wakari/anaconda/bin/conda``. If you are installing a
Jupyter extension, it must be installed in the ``wakari-compute``
directory.

EXAMPLE: Run:

.. code-block:: bash

   /opt/wakari/anaconda/bin/conda install -p /opt/wakari/wakari-compute/ -c conda-forge jupyter_contrib_nbextension
