How to run jupyter notebook from 5th cell to 100th cell, without running other part of the notebook? (Python) - Codedump.io.
Primarily, the nbconvert tool allows you to convert a Jupyter.ipynb notebook document file into another static format including HTML, LaTeX, PDF, Markdown, reStructuredText, and more. Nbconvert can also add productivity to your workflow when used to execute notebooks programmatically.

Nbconvert provides a convenient way to execute the input cells of an.ipynb notebook file and save the results, both input and output cells, as a.ipynb file.

A Jupyter notebook is saved in a JSON text file. This file contains the entire contents of the notebook: text, code, and outputs. The matplotlib figures are encoded as base64 strings within the notebooks, resulting in standalone, but sometimes big, notebook files.
JSON is a human-readable, text-based, open standard format that can represent structured data. Although derived from JavaScript, it is language independent. Its syntax bears some resemblance with Python dictionaries. JSON can be parsed in many languages including JavaScript and Python (using the json
module in Python's standard library).
nbconvert (https://nbconvert.readthedocs.io/en/stable/) is a tool that can convert notebooks to other formats: raw text, Markdown, HTML, LaTeX/PDF, and even slides with the reveal.js library. You will find more information about the different supported formats on the nbconvert documentation.
One typically uses the nbformat (https://nbformat.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) library to manipulate a notebook. However, in this recipe, we will see how to manipulate the contents of a notebook (which is just a plain text JSON file) directly with Python, and how to convert it to other formats with nbconvert.
Getting ready
You need to install pandoc, available at http://pandoc.org. This tool is used to convert markup files to various formats. On Ubuntu, type sudo apt-get install pandoc
in a terminal.
To convert a notebook to PDF, you need a LaTeX distribution, which you can download and install at http://latex-project.org/ftp.html.
How to do it..
1. Let's download and open the test notebook. A notebook is just a plain text file (JSON):
2. Here is an excerpt of the test.ipynb
file:
3. Now that we have loaded the notebook in a string, let's parse it with the json
module as follows:
4. Let's have a look at the keys in the notebook dictionary:
5. Each cell has a type, optional metadata, some contents (text or code), possibly one or several outputs, and other information. Let's look at a Markdown cell and a code cell:
6. Once parsed, the notebook is represented as a Python dictionary. Manipulating it is therefore quite convenient in Python. Here, we count the number of Markdown and code cells as follows:
7. Let's have a closer look at the image output of the cell with the matplotlib figure:
In general, there can be zero, one, or multiple outputs. Additionally, each output can have multiple representations. Here, the matplotlib figure has a PNG representation (the base64-encoded image) and a text representation (the internal representation of the figure).8. Now, we convert our text notebook to HTML using nbconvert:
9. Let's display this document in an <iframe>
(a small window showing an external HTML document within the notebook):
10. We can also convert the notebook to LaTeX and PDF. In order to specify the title and author of the document, we need to extend the default LaTeX template. First, we create a file called temp.tplx
that extends the default article.tplx
Wd my passport for mac manual. template provided by nbconvert. We specify the contents of the author and title blocks as follows:
11. Then, we can run nbconvert by specifying our custom template as follows:
We used nbconvert to convert the notebook to LaTeX, and pdflatex (coming with our LaTeX distribution) to compile the LaTeX document to PDF. The following screenshot shows the PDF version of the notebook:
How it works..
As we have seen in this recipe, an .ipynb
file contains a structured representation of the notebook. This JSON file can be easily parsed and manipulated in Python and other languages. However, it is better practice to use the nbformat package to manipulate a notebook. The internal JSON format may change, whereas the nbformat API is not expected to change.
nbconvert is a tool for converting a notebook to another format. The conversion can be customized in several ways. Here, we extended an existing template using jinja2, a templating package (see http://jinja.pocoo.org/docs/).
There's more..
There is a free online service, nbviewer, that lets us render Jupyter notebooks in HTML dynamically in the cloud. The idea is that we provide to nbviewer a URL to a raw notebook (in JSON), and we get a rendered HTML output. The main page of nbviewer (http://nbviewer.jupyter.org/) contains a few examples. This service is maintained by the Jupyter developers and is hosted on Rackspace (https://www.rackspace.com).
GitHub automatically renders Jupyter notebooks stored in repositories.
binder, available at https://mybinder.org, allows one to turn a GitHub repository into a collection of interactive notebooks in the cloud. The service is free and the code is open source, so that anyone can provide their own binder service.

Jupyter Nbconvert Template
Jupyter notebooks are great for experimentation, reporting and sharing. In a project there are often times when you need to transition from this activity to production ready code. The easiest first step is to convert your notebook to a script. In order to do this you will need jupyter
and nbconvert
packages installed.
From a terminal or command prompt type,
Convert a single notebook
To convert a single notebook, just type the following commands in a terminal where the current directory is the location of the file. Jupyter will convert the notebook to a script file with the same name but with file ending .py
.
Convert multiple notebooks
Jupyter Nbconvert Pdf
To convert multiple notebooks simultaneously only requires the typing of additional filenames.

You can even use wildcard searches to make things easier. For instance,
