repo2notebook 1.0.0

Convert any code repository into a single markdown file for NotebookLM

repo2notebook

Convert any code repository into a single markdown file for NotebookLM and other LLM tools.

Problem: NotebookLM doesn't accept .tsx, .py, .cs, or most code files. You have to manually copy-paste everything.

Solution: One command, one file. Upload and start chatting with your codebase.

Installation

pip install repo2notebook

Usage

# Run in your project directory
cd your-project
repo2notebook

# Or specify a path
repo2notebook /path/to/your/repo

Output: _repo2notebook/notebook.md — ready to upload to NotebookLM.

Alternative: Run Without Installing

curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Appaholics/repo2notebook/main/repo2notebook.py
python repo2notebook.py

Features

• Zero dependencies — Only Python standard library
• Single file — Just repo2notebook.py, nothing else
• All languages — TypeScript, Python, Rust, Go, Kotlin, Swift, C#, and 50+ more
• Smart filtering — Automatically excludes node_modules, lock files, build outputs
• Respects .gitignore — Your ignore rules are honored
• Safe — Never modifies or deletes your original files
• Auto-updates .gitignore — Adds output folder to prevent committing

What Gets Excluded

The tool automatically skips files that would add noise without value:

Category	Examples
Dependencies	node_modules/, vendor/, venv/, Pods/
Lock files	package-lock.json, yarn.lock, Cargo.lock, poetry.lock
Build output	dist/, build/, .next/, target/, bin/, obj/
IDE config	.idea/, .vscode/, .vs/
OS files	.DS_Store, Thumbs.db
Secrets	.env (but .env.example is included)

Plus everything in your .gitignore.

Output Format

Clean markdown with proper syntax highlighting:

# Repository: my-project
