Fortran magic
Compile and import symbols from a cell with Fortran code, using f2py.
Attention: I am looking for collaborators to maintain this project. If you are interested, please open an issue (or PRs) with your proposals for improvements and volunteer to be a maintainer.
The contents of the cell are written to a .f90 file in the directory
IPYTHONDIR/fortran using a filename with the hash of the code. This file is then
compiled. The resulting module is imported and all of its symbols are injected into
the user's namespace.

Install
You can install or upgrade via uv:
uv add fortran-magic
Or via pip:
pip install -U fortran-magic
Or run directly
uv run --with=fortran-magic ipython
Basic usage
Once it's installed, you can load it with %load_ext fortranmagic. Then put your
Fortran code in a cell started with the cell magic %%fortran. For example:
In[1]: %load_ext fortranmagic
In[2]: %%fortran
subroutine f1(x, y, z)
real, intent(in) :: x,y
real, intent(out) :: z
z = sin(x+y)
end subroutine f1
Every symbol is automatically imported. So the subroutine f1 is already available in
your python session as a function:
In[3]: f1(1.0, 2.1415)
Out[3]: 9.26574066397734e-05
Tests
Run tests with:
uv run --group dev pytest
See the documentation for further details.
