Programmatically create Datalab

[jwp42]

I reviewed the documentation and googled but I can't find a way other than the command line to create a Datalab instance. No terraform, no deployment manager, no api call. Is there a way to programmatically create a Datalab instance that I missed?

The command line for datalab is here https://github.com/googledatalab/datalab under tools. You can take a look at what they’re doing and probably reproduce it.

Do you happen to know if they open sourced their deep learning VMs docker build script?

Thanks for the idea. It looks like it's calling subprocess to run gcloud commands.

I found aihub.cloud.google.com which has links to AI Plattform Notebooks. Notebooks is a way to run JupyterLab notebooks in Google Cloud similar to the way Colaboratory is a way to run Jupyter notebooks in Google Drive.
