convert json ipython notebook(.ipynb) to .py file

Question

How do you convert an IPython notebook file (json with .ipynb extension) into a regular .py module?

Answer 1

According to https://ipython.org/ipython-doc/3/notebook/nbconvert.html you are looking for the nbconvert command with the --to script option.

ipython nbconvert notebook.ipynb --to script

Answer 2

From the notebook menu you can save the file directly as a python script. Go to the 'File' option of the menu, then select 'Download as' and there you would see a 'Python (.py)' option.

Another option would be to use nbconvert from the command line:

jupyter nbconvert --to script 'my-notebook.ipynb'

Have a look here.

Answer 3

In short: This command-line option converts mynotebook.ipynb to python code:

jupyter nbconvert mynotebook.ipynb --to python

note: this is different from above answer. ipython has been renamed to jupyter. the old executable name (ipython) is deprecated.

More details: jupyter command-line has an nbconvert argument which helps convert notebook files (*.ipynb) to various other formats.

You could even convert it to any one of these formats using the same command but different --to option:

• asciidoc
• custom
• html
• latex. (Awesome if you want to paste code in conference/journal papers).
• markdown
• notebook
• pdf
• python
• rst
• script
• slides. (Whooh! Convert to slides for easy presentation

Answer 5

1. Go to https://jupyter.org/
2. click on nbviewer
3. Enter the location of your file and render it.
4. Click on view as code (shown as < />)

Answer 6

You can use the following script to convert jupyter notebook to Python script, or view the code directly.

To do this, write the following contents into a file cat_ipynb, then chmod +x cat_ipynb.

#!/usr/bin/env python
import sys
import json

for file in sys.argv[1:]:
    print('# file: %s' % file)
    print('# vi: filetype=python')
    print('')
    code = json.load(open(file))

    for cell in code['cells']:
        if cell['cell_type'] == 'code':
            print('# -------- code --------')
            for line in cell['source']:
                print(line, end='')
            print('\n')
        elif cell['cell_type'] == 'markdown':
            print('# -------- markdown --------')
            for line in cell['source']:
                print("#", line, end='')
            print('\n')

Then you can use

cat_ipynb your_notebook.ipynb > output.py

Or show it with vi directly

cat_ipynb your_notebook.ipynb | view -
