Asekuro

A commandline util for jupyter notebooks, possibly to be used in trainings and/or githooks.

Asekuro means insurance in esperanto.

The main goal is to have a commandline app that can be used in githooks. The main feature we wanted in this app is that we had a nice way to:

Clear notebook cells
Be able to confirm that the notebook can run without errors.
Be able to deal with solutions via %load magic.
Be able to automatically add a copyright notice and a logo at the top.

Quick-Start

Installation currently needs to occur via git.

> pip install asekuro

Note that we only support python 3.

Usage

Once installed, the commandline app can be used.

Testing a Notebook

We merely test if the notebook can be run from top to bottom without any errors. This may be dependant on the virtualenv that you're currently running.

Clean Notebook

Sometimes you may want to remove the output of the cells. This can be done automatically now too.

> asekuro clean tests/testnb.ipynb 
2018-07-30 15:44:23,508 [commandline.py:clean_notebook:76] DEBUG - about to strip tests/testnb.ipynb of output
2018-07-30 15:44:23,516 [commandline.py:clean_notebook:82] DEBUG - tests/testnb.ipynb is now stripped

Testing

You can run some unit tests via pytest. Note that we test using local notebooks as well as a docker container. We want the container that is there to break the build.
