Context: I'm using vscode with WSL and I also use conda for environment management.
I'm trying to create a variable in a jupyter notebook, let's say x = [10, 20], and then use that same variable in a .py file (not on jupyter notebooks). I'm already using the same environment on both, but the terminal/kernel I believe is different for each. I believe this because when I run a cell on jupyter notebook, nothing happens on the terminal. However, when I run on .py files, the terminal runs the code I selected.
I would like to see the terminal running something for jupyter (.ipynb) and also for my .py files.
Any help would be really appreciated.
Say my startup directory for Jupyter is /User/All/Directory/, how can I load a notebook from /User/All/ in Jupyter without changing the startup directory?
I'm working with a Mac, in case that's relevant.
Check all path of anaconda is proper or not, then open terminal, go on that path where you want to open jupyter notebook and type "jupyter notebook" and press enter, jupyter notebook will open in default browser.
I have a machine learning project in drive D. It contains python notebook files. But when I launch jupyter notebook through command prompt, it only shows directories inside drive C. How can I navigate to a drive other than C drive without changing jupyter notebook startup path?. I'm using windows 10 operating system. All the solutions I found, trying to change notebook startup path.
You can launch it from any drive/location you want with the --notebook-dir option.
For example:
jupyter notebook --notebook-dir=D:/
Follow these steps:
Open Anaconda Prompt
Insert this command,
jupyter notebook --notebook-dir=NameOfTheDrive:.
As Example for Drive D, jupyter notebook --notebook-dir=D:
To permanently change the default directory of Jupyter do the following:
Look for the Shortcut to open Jupyter notebook.
Right Click on the Shortcut
Go to Properties.
Look for ....jupyter-notebook-script.py "%USERPROFILE%/"
Change %USERPROFILE%/ to the folder you wish.
Restart Jupyter notebook.
Open the Anaconda Prompt
type the following:
jupyter notebook --notebook-dir=D:\
This is what worked for me in windows.
Okay, this question seems to have already been addresses, but I'd like to add quick step launch solution for this case. I created a batch file (windows .bat file) with the following script and saved it on my desktop. I just double click it to launch the files in the respective drive.
#echo ON
title Launch Jupyter notebooks from Drive D
jupyter notebook --notebook-dir=D:
#echo OFF
Copy paste this code in a text file and save it as a *.bat file on your Desktop. Just fire it up every time you want to launch Jupyter.
You can create various versions of this file for each drive as required and keep them handy.
Another good option is from your terminal go to the disk you want to start jupyter by example :
cd D:
And then launch jupyter notebook
jupyter notebook
If you are using JupyterLab, just type in your desired terminal;
jupyter lab --notebook-dir=D:/
It will create a new port to access D: drive in JupyterLab
Open Jupyter notebook as usual
Click on New\Terminal
Type the code below in terminal, where you want to point to F drive
jupyter notebook --notebook-dir=F:/
Jupter notebook new session url will open in your default internet explorer
you can directly access by following command:
jupyter notebook --notebook-dir=D:/
Alternate method is go to Anaconda Prompt or Anaconda Termial
then Access D drive and launch the jupyter notebook
D:
jupyter notebook
*To change just one time :
user following code in your Anaconda prompt .
jupyter notebook --notebook-dir=E:
*To permanently change the default directory of Jupyter do the following:
Right click on Jupyter notebook icon.
Go to Properties.
In shortcut tab->target you will find something like this -> jupyter-notebook-script.py "%USERPROFILE%/"
Change %USERPROFILE%/ to the folder you want to start from eg : jupyter-notebook-script.py "E:\folder_path".
Restart Jupyter notebook.
My solution is to create a batch file which allows me to execute jupyter at the current directory.
Create a batch file jupy.bat with the following content:
jupyter notebook --notebook-dir=%1
Save the jupy.bat in some folder, let say in d:\scripts
Append d:\scripts in PATH environment variable. So that i can call jupy just everywhere.
From now on, i can go to the folder where i store my notebooks, and execute the command:
jupy .
This is to open Jupiter lab from E Drive
Open Anaconda Prompt
Type the code below in terminal, where you want to point to E drive
jupyter lab --notebook-dir=E:/
My repositories are in the drive R.
I am running Jupyter on Windows 10 in the Ubuntu 18.04, so the drive R is at /mnt/r.
$ nano ~/.bashrc
alias notebook="jupyter notebook --notebook-dir=/mnt/r"
$ source ~/.bashrc
$ notebook
It does not open the browser automatically, so I have to copy the URL manually.
It may ask you to enter the token which you can get by executing:
$ jupyter notebook list
The most easiest solution in my opinion
Open Notepad
Paste the command "jupyter notebook --NotebookApp.iopub_data_rate_limit=1.0e10"
Save the notepad file with an extension of ".bat" instead of ".txt"
Paste the file in which directory you want to initialize your jupyter
Double click and open the ".bat" file
Jupyter opens with desired directory as base
This way you control the jupyter root directory as and when required and don't
really have to perform any manual settings
Hope this helps
".bat" file created on Desktop
".bat" file double clicked and executed
jupyter opens with Desktop as the intended base directory
I have a Jupyter notebook containing python and R scripts as well as magic commands. What I need is to schedule a task using Windows Task scheduler that somehow triggers run of this notebook. My scripts run at night and I prefer Jupyter to be closed.
So I wonder if there is a way to do this?
Thank you in advance.
It is perfectly possible to do this
Create a bat file that you can reference in the windows task scheduler.
Code as follows:
cd C:\path to your notebook
jupyter nbconvert --to notebook --execute NOTEBOOKTOEXECUTE.ipynb
I needed to include the path, as the console would be run from the system path and thus unable to find the notebook.
Previously, I had Canopy installed and at that time, I could simply double click on ipynb files and open them into the browser.
However, later I needed Anaconda and once I installed it, this feature was gone.
Now I just want to be able to simply double click on ipynb files and the file gets open into the Firefox. Is it possible?
I read about this:
nbopen
pip install nbopen
python -m nbopen.install_win
But it didn't solve my problem. I appreciate any help.
Yes, this is possible. Running python -m nbopen.install_win installs the executable nbopen.exe in the Scripts folder of your anaconda directory. For me this is:
PS> (gcm nbopen).Path
E:\Programs\anaconda\Scripts\nbopen.exe
The first line gets the path of the nbopen command (using PowerShell). If you are not using PowerShell you can find your conda directory by right-clicking on any (I)Python executable in your start menu and look at where it links to.
You can then associate the nbopen.exe file with the .ipynb filetype:
Right-click on a .ipynb file.
Click on Properties
Click on the Change button next to "Open With:"
Click on Browse, browse to the path you found out and select nbopen.exe.
Double-clicking on .ipynb files now checks if a notebook server is running and opens the notebook. If no server is running, one is started in the active directory.
Checkout this Firefox plugin. Python Notebook Viewer.
This plugin lets you view/render python notebooks without running notebook server. Once installed, set Firefox as default app to open ipynb files. From now onwards, you can simply open ipynb files by simply double clicking on it!
This saves a lot of time as most of the time developers are just keen on seeing a code. It also saves a hassle of browsing directories in Jupyter Notebook window to reach to a specific file.
If m00am's solution doesn't work and nbopen.exe file doesn't show up then do the following:
Uninstall Anaconda.
Install Anaconda again and make sure you add Anaconda to Windows path during the installation.
Then try m00am's solution again.
This worked for me:)
