decktape: Error: Unable to activate the RISE DeckTape plugin

Hi,

I’m having some issues in getting decktape generate a pdf version of the RISE slides corresponding to one of my Jupyter notebook. I’ve successfully installed decktape via npm as per the instructions provided. Then, I’ve tried several different commands but sadly none of them work. Among those are the following: decktape rise http://localhost:8888/notebooks/{NOTEBOOK_NAME}.ipynb slides.pdf decktape rise http://localhost:8888/notebooks/{NOTEBOOK_NAME}.ipynb#/slide-0-0 slides.pdf decktape rise http://localhost:8888/?token={NOTEBOOK_TOKEN} slides.pdf One of the errors that I got is: Error: Unable to activate the RISE DeckTape plugin for the address: {URL} where {URL} is either http://localhost:8888/notebooks/{NOTEBOOK_NAME}.ipynb or http://localhost:8888/notebooks/{NOTEBOOK_NAME}.ipynb#/slide-0-0. Would you please help me to fix this issue and figure out what’s the exact way to generate pdf from RISE slides?

Many Thanks, Gabriele

Never mind! I was just typing the incorrect URL as input to decktape rise. So, the fix that I propose (i.e., replacing “start_livereveal” with “RISE” in the rise.js file) actually makes decktape 2.5.0 and RISE 5.1.0 work nicely. Hope this helps!

Thanks, Gabriele
