Description
Connecting to a server with e.g. jlab http://localhost:2001/lab?token=<token>
fails when the jupyterlab desktop app is already open.
Reproduce
- Open the jupyterlab desktop app
- Start a jupyterlab session from the terminal with
jupyter lab
- Copy the resulting addresas and run
jlab <address>
from terminal - The command prints "handling request in main instance" then exits
- The desktop app focuses but fails to connect, just opens an empty
Launcher
page
Expected behavior
The desktop app successfully connects to the server, auto-opens the previously-opened notebooks. Running jlab <address>
before opening the app will connect successfully.
