How to configure "Enable resource usage indicators" to true from `c = get_config()`

[sgrenf95]

Hello Jupyter Server community!

Do you know if there is a way to set the "Enable resource usage indicators" from the Resource Usage Indicator settings to True (see attached image) from the jupyter_server_config.py file?

So I have a configuration file called jupyter_server_config.py with the following content:

import sys
import os

from jupyter_core.paths import jupyter_data_dir
import subprocess
import errno
import stat

c = get_config()
c.ServerApp.open_browser = False

c.ResourceUseDisplay.track_cpu_percent = True
c.ResourceUseDisplay.track_disk_usage = True

# Add bash as a jupyter terminal shell
c.ServerApp.terminado_settings = {'shell_command': ['/bin/bash']}

Do you know if there is a way to configure the "Enable resource usage indicators" setting to True from the jupyter_server_config.py file?

@sgrenf95 This is a pure frontend extension and it cannot be controlled from the backend server. So, to answer your question, no, AFAIK, there is no way to enable from a "global" jupyter_server_config.py.

If you would like to set it up for the users and if you can access user's home dir, you can set up a file at ~/.jupyter/lab/user-settings/@jupyter-server/resource-usage/topbar-item.jupyterlab-settings with the following content:

{"enable": true}

This would enable the extension for the JupyterLab servers by "default"!
