I want to run a IPython notebook server on the a predefined URL like: http://localhost:8888/my_notebook
.
I've tried
$ ipython notebook --ip=localhost/my_notebook
which didn't work.
Can anyone please help?
You can set the configurable value from command line like this:
ipython notebook --NotebookApp.base_url='my_notebook'
Alternatively, you can set it in a config file for your profile. You can read more about it here.
