A Sphinx Extension for Generating Jupyter Notebooks

This sphinx extension can be used to build a collection of Jupyter notebooks for Sphinx Projects.

Note: It has mainly been written to support the use case of scientific publishing and hasn't been well tested outside of this domain. Please provide feedback as an issue to this repository.

pip install sphinxcontrib-jupyter

Update project conf.py file to include the jupyter extension:

extensions = ["sphinxcontrib.jupyter"]

then run

make jupyter

To generate an In style executable block you can use

.. code-block:: python

.. literalinclude::  

To generate a notebook that looks precomputed you can specify output using the :class: output option.

.. code-block:: python
    :class: output

To include code in the notebook that is not meant for execution can be included using :class: no-execute. This is useful when writing code that is meant to throw errors, for example.

.. code-block:: python
    :class: no-execute

this will generate a highlighted markdown cell of the contents of the code-block. An alias for this is :class: skip-test. This is used in the context of a test environment that is using the collection of notebooks to test a collection of code snippets.

The following additions must be made to conf.py file.

# --------------------------------------------
# sphinxcontrib-jupyter Configuration Settings
# --------------------------------------------

# Conversion Mode Settings
# If "all", convert codes and texts into jupyter notebook
# If "code", convert code-blocks only
jupyter_conversion_mode = "all"

jupyter_write_metadata = True

# Location for _static folder
jupyter_static_file_path = ["_static"]

# Configure Jupyter Kernels
jupyter_kernels = {
    "python3": {
        "kernelspec": {
            "display_name": "Python",
            "language": "python3",
            "name": "python3"
            },
        "file_extension": ".py",
    },
    "julia": {
        "kernelspec": {
            "display_name": "Julia 0.6.0",
            "language": "julia",
            "name": "julia-0.6"
            },
        "file_extension": ".jl"
    }
}

# Prepend a Welcome Message to Each Notebook
jupyter_welcome_block = "welcome.rst"
