Set Up Datahub for your class!

Create a public Github repository to upload all your coursework. Files in this Github repository will be used to generate unique links that will be shared with students. 

• Refer to this documentation to learn about how to use Git and Github.
• If you are interested to use the GUI version of Github, Refer to this documentation to learn more about the Github desktop.
• If you are interested in adding your repository to the ever-growing collection of modules/connector repositories so that instructors who will be teaching your class in future will thank you then reach out to Balaji Alwar (balajialwar@berkeley.edu).
• If you need more support setting up your own repository then reach out to Balaji Alwar (balajialwar@berkeley.edu).

Nbgitpuller is a wonderful tool that simplifies the assignment distribution pipeline. Unique links generated using this tool will directly take the students to the Jupyter/R Studio based notebooks in Datahub without exposing the complexities of Git. 

Install nbgitpuller Chrome or Firefox extension in your respective browser. A good test to verify whether the installation was a success is to access a Github repository (through the installed browser) and check whether you can find the button named "nbgitpuller". 

Access the notebook for which a shareable link needs to be generated in a Github repository. Click on the nbgitpuller button. Follow the detailed steps outlined in this documentation to generate a shareable link.
