vscode-jupyter: Can not use Wolfram Kernel when using Local Server

This issue is maybe related to #4041. However I want to connect to Wolfram Kernel with LOCAL server.

Environment data

VS Code version: 1.59.1(user setup)
Jupyter Extension version (available under the Extensions sidebar): v2021.8.1236758218
Python Extension version (available under the Extensions sidebar):v2021.8.1159798656
OS (Windows | Mac | Linux distro) and version: Windows_NT x64 10.0.19043
Python and/or Anaconda version: 3.9.4
Jupyter server running: Local

Expected behaviour

Connecting to Wolfram Kernel and doing calculation (just like on remote server):

Actual behaviour

Can not connect to Wolfram Server:

Steps to reproduce:

install wolfram engine and wolfram language for jupyter, and operate as what he says. 2.test: success.
create a new jupyter notebook (.ipynb) and choose “local” server (Default), then choose Wolfram Language 12.3(Maybe you need restart VSCode)
input $Version then run code.

However there is nothing wrong when I connect to remote server. But I think it is troublesome to connect to remote server every time I use it (As is said in #4041).

Hi @DavidKutu

The version of Wolfram Engine is 12.3
For the sample test code, just type 1+1 and run
Start a remote kernel: first run Jupyter Lab (it will give you the URL of the server), then paste the URL in VS code (chose remote Jupyter server)

To make sure you can repeat this problem on your computer, I have written the installation in detail. All the installation and setups may take you 15 mins.

First, you need to install the Wolfram Engine; it is free, but you need to create a Wolfram ID to get a license. The Wolfram Engine is about 1 GB.

Download Wolfram Engine at https://www.wolfram.com/engine/ (I’m running it on Windows)
Create your Wolfram ID at https://account.wolfram.com/auth/create
Install and activate it on your machine. It is very direct, you can follow the instructions at https://support.wolfram.com/46069

You can type wolframscript.exe in your PowerShell or Command Prompt to open Wolfram Engine and run 1+1 in it, it should return you 2. Type Exit to quit. Here is the example run on my computer

PS C:\Users\74239\data-ted\cache\ada> wolframscript.exe
Wolfram Language 12.3.1 Engine for Microsoft Windows (64-bit)
Copyright 1988-2021 Wolfram Research, Inc.

In[1]:= 1+1

Out[1]= 2

In[2]:= Integrate[1/x,x]

Out[2]= Log[x]

In[3]:= Exit
PS C:\Users\74239\data-ted\cache\ada>

(I believe you have installed Jupyter Lab, if not, you can directly install conda and run conda install jupyterlab.)

Then, you need the WolframLanguageForJupyter here, I think “Method 1” suits you. It may takes you 2 mins.

Just download all the code at https://github.com/WolframResearch/WolframLanguageForJupyter and unzip it (you can place it at some path you like, you will need it when use the Wolfram engine in Jupyter, don’t move it after the installation).
run .\configure-jupyter.wls add at the path you chose. (note that if your Jupyter Lab is installed by conda, remember to run this at the same environment of Jupyter Lab)

Now, you should be able to chose Wolfram Language 12.3 as the kernel in an .ipynb file opened by Jupyter Lab or VS code. You can run 1+1 again after chose Wolfram Language 12.3 as the kernel. I believe you will see what @yfzhao20 described above.

If you need any more information, let me know.

@ted1277 I’ve added the fix, it should in in tomorrows insider version of the extension. Please install VS Code Insiders and you’ll get the fix (we’ll ship this in the next stable version of the extension)
