Are notebooks accessible on the spark as a service file system?

Question

I would like to investigate if it is possible to use the git command line client using a %%sh cell so that I can work directly with project resources such as scripts and notebooks using a git client. E.g.

%%sh
git clone ... myproj

Are the dsx notebooks stored on the spark as a service file system? If so, what folder are they stored in?

Answer 1

The notebooks are managed and are stored seperately and .ipynb are not exposed directly because DSX need ability organize this notebooks in project and collaborative enivornment.

You can certainly use

%%sh

git clone https://github.com/charles2588/bluemixsparknotebooks

Since the .ipynb files are not exposed, you cannot push them from here. The alternative would be to use github integration and push files as explained in this thread:- http://datascience.ibm.com/blog/github-integration-available-2/

Thanks,

Charles.
