I want to use spyder on my local machine but by using a kernel of a remote server. Achieving this requires finding the connection json file as described here. The location of this file is required to transfer this json file via a SFTP client to my local machine, such that I can use it to connect my local spyder IDE.
The problem is that if I type "ipython kernel" in the console I get the info
NOTE: When using the
ipython kernel
entry point, Ctrl-C will not work.
To exit, you will have to explicitly quit this process, by either sending "quit" from a client, or using Ctrl-\ in UNIX-like environments.
To read more about this, see https://github.com/ipython/ipython/issues/2049
To connect another client to this kernel, use: --existing kernel-somenumber.json
After entering this environment I'm somehow not able to do anything anymore - whatever I type in (%exit, quit) or trying to find the path to the json file as indicated above does not work either. Simply nothing seems to happen. Has someone else encountered this? Which command can I use in the console to quit this environment? The github link given above does somehow not help me either.
