Load ipython code as module
waynebliu opened this issue · comments
I want to load plain files with ipython as modules, rather than using %load. Importnb seems to require ipynb notebooks. Can it import non-notebook files also? Thanks.
not yet, but we can make this happen, feels like an oversight not having this. thanks @waynebliu
Awesome! Actually it's more an oversight of ipython to not have this, but you're correcting that.
i think this #110 will resolve this issue. it will be in the 0.7.0 release i'll try to ship next week.
Hi @tonyfast are you planning to do the 0.7.0 release? Would love to start using this feature. :)
@waynebliu wecut a release for you! 🙏 thanks for keeping us honest. we'd love to see some of the ways you are using importnb if you are open to sharing with us.
Great, thank you tonyfast!
At work we automate a lot of our developer workflow using notebooks - basically any how-to wiki is written as a notebook. I like to use ipython instead of bash for writing utility functions for notebooks and I use importnb to share and import utils 'properly'. Otherwise it's too hard to share them.
