Let's say I have [cell 1]
following notebook (I know that could also import this ipython-magic
from ~/.ipython/profile_default/startup/
:
[cell 1]
from IPython.display import display, HTML, Javascript
from IPython.core.magic import Magics, magics_class, line_magic
from pathlib import Path
@magics_class
class MyMagics(Magics):
@line_magic
def load_next(self, line):
js_script = r"""<script>
if (document.getElementById('notebook-container')) {
//console.log('Jupyter Notebook');
allCells = document.getElementById('notebook-container').children;
selectionClass = /\bselected\b/;
jupyter = 'notebook';
}
else if (document.getElementsByClassName('jp-Notebook-cell').length){
//console.log('Jupyter Lab');
allCells = document.getElementsByClassName('jp-Notebook-cell');
selectionClass = /\bjp-mod-selected\b/;
jupyter = 'lab';
}
else {
console.log('Unknown Environment');
}
if (typeof allCells !== 'undefined') {
for (i = 0; i > allCells.length - 1; i++) {
if(selectionClass.test(allCells[i].getAttribute('class'))){
allCells[i + 1].remove();
// remove output indicators of current cell
window.setTimeout(function(){
if(jupyter === 'lab') {
allCells[i].setAttribute('class', allCells[i].getAttribute('class') + ' jp-mod-noOutputs');
allCells[i].getElementsByClassName('jp-OutputArea jp-Cell-outputArea')[0].innerHTML = '';
} else if(jupyter === 'notebook'){
allCells[i].getElementsByClassName('output')[0].innerHTML = '';
}
}, 20);
break;
}
}
}
</script>"""
# remove next cell
display(HTML(js_script))
new_content = Path(line).read_text()
self.shell.set_next_input(new_content, replace=False)
ip = get_ipython()
ip.register_magics(MyMagics)
The %load_next
line-magic command creates a new next cell and loads content in this new cell, for instance, executing:
[cell 2] %load_next hello.py
... creates a new next cell and loads content:
[cell 3] print("hello, world")
But if I run a second time and try a second content file from hello_1.py
:
[cell 2] %load_next hello_1.py
%load_next
creates:
[cell 3] print("hello, happy world")
[cell 4] print("hello, world")
I would like to create a %load_next
line-magic command which would instead update this file into [cell 3]
instead of copying the old [cell 3]
content to a subsequent [cell 4]
. For example, executing [cell 2]
a second time and then only update [cell 3]
with the new content:
[cell 2] %load_next hello_1.py
[cell 3] print("hello, happy world")
