nbsqueeze 0.0.2

A small Python package to minimize the file size of Jupyter notebooks by extracting figures.

Welcome to nbsqueeze

Creating plots in Jupyter notebooks is great for exploring your data. The images that are generated by your plotting code are conveniently stored within the notebook file as base64 encoded text strings. A downside to this approach is that Jupyter notebooks with many plots easily become quite large. Uploading such large notebook files to github and subsequent testing and rendering of such notebooks to produce documentation soon becomes intolerably slow…

This small Python package nbsqueeze is created to reduce the file size of Jupyter notebooks by extracting embedded images as separate image files. This open source package available via the Python Package index https://pypi.org.

For documentation and source code see github.
