jupyter-helpers 0.2.2

A collection of helpers for using IPython in Jupyter(Lab)

# Jupyter helpers for IPython

This collection of IPython helpers optimized for JupyterLab users will help you to:

• Play a sound once the computations have finished (or failed)

• Integrate the notifications with your OS (ready for GNOME shell)

• Enable auto-completion for rpy2 (great for using ggplot2!) - now also available in [jupyterlab-lsp](https://github.com/krassowski/jupyterlab-lsp)

• Summarize dictionaries and other structures in a nice table

• Selectively import from other notebooks

• Scroll to the recently executed cell on error or when opening the notebook

• Use interactive (following) tail for long outputs

The examples are available in [demos](https://github.com/krassowski/jupyter-helpers/tree/master/demos) directory. Please, see the [Productivity tips for Jupyter (Python)](https://medium.com/@krassowski.michal/productivity-tips-for-jupyter-python-a3614d70c770) article for introduction and more code samples. For jump-to-definition feature, please visit [jupyterlab-lsp](https://github.com/krassowski/jupyterlab-lsp).

### Installation

For basic functionality:

`bash pip3 install jupyter_helpers `

To include interactive widgets:

`bash pip3 install ipywidgets jupyter labextension install @jupyter-widgets/jupyterlab-manager `

To use advanced GNOME integration, run setup.sh script from the installation directory (PRs welcome to propose a better setup procedure).

To check if you have required system libraries for the better GNOME integration, see [notify-send.sh repository](https://github.com/vlevit/notify-send.sh).
