How to run code with Hydrogen
I am completely new to Atom.
I installed it and it felt quite easy to use and set up. I read that the Hydrogen package enables functionality similar to the Jupyter Notebook. So I installed the package. Unfortunately, I have no Idea how to use it. I read the entire documentation (which isnt too extensive) and searched for everything I could.
So here is my problem: I created a file called testfile1.py In that file i put the very simple line
print(‘Hello’)
just to see how it works. I marked the line and pressed Ctrl+Enter. At the top right, a window pops up saying “Hydrogen Kernels updated: Python 3”. But then nothing happens. I dont see the result of the code that I tried to run anywhere. I tried different lines of codes, tried differen run-combinations, nothing gives me any results. I am using arch linux, installed Anaconda through the AUR to /opt/anaconda. Using the terminal and running
jupyter notebook
for example works just fine and opens a Notebook in Firefox (as it should) and running code that imports modules that came along with Anaconda also work fine once i run them with the script package in Atom (things like
import numpy as np
is letting me work with all the numpy funtions as expected. So I think that it shouldnt be any issues related to the Anaconda packages itself) I tried to look everywhere I could, but I do not find any solution on why hydrogen would not give me any results. Is there anything I am missing or did wrong? I hope someone might be able to help me, thanks already in advance
Answer
I'm using Windows 10, Atom version 1.30.0 with Hydrogen 2.6.0 (both with default settings).
If you navigate to Packages > Hydrogen you can see the default key bindings.
To make a cell there are many options noted in the manual as shown below.
