github-to-colab-link 1.0.1

Generates Google Colab link for jupyter notebooks in public Github repos.

Github to Colab Link Generator

Sometimes you may want to load a Jupyter notebook from your repo to colab and run it there. Other times you may just want to add a colab link to your repositories readme page. Sure you can download a notebook and then import to colab but that may not always be ideal. The goal of this cli tool is to short-circuit that process so that you don't have to go through the extra clicks.

Pre-requisites

• The repo where your notebook is must be public

Installation and Usage

Install from pip

pip install -U github-to-colab-link

Usage

The package currently generates links in two formats, one is a plain string, which you can copy and load in an web browser; another is a markdown embed which you can use in your markdown style docs, e.g. Github readmes.

# for plain string
colab-link-gen --string --gh link_to_notebook
# example
colab-link-gen --string --gh https://github.com/ShawonAshraf/jax_examples/blob/main/playground/palmers_penguins.ipynb

# for markdown embed
colab-link-gen --md --gh link_to_notebook
# example
colab-link-gen --md --gh https://github.com/ShawonAshraf/jax_examples/blob/main/playground/palmers_penguins.ipynb
