Support .dib
notebook rendering in GitHub
#2209
Comments
@Krzysztof-Cieslak do you know who we can ping about that? |
@ScottArbeit maybe you can help? |
@xperiandri Trying to find the right team internally to comment. 99% sure GitHub has to write that code, can't be done by a third-party. |
Just so you know, "no current plans" to implement this right now. |
Any particular reasons? Seems rather useful. |
Like every other dev team: it's just about prioritization. No objections to the feature itself, but the team that would do it has a lot of higher-impact work on its plate. |
OK, but at least having some response, setting tags, telling the community how can they speed up the process would be nice... |
I've marked it as external because it's not something that the .NET Interactive team would be able to implement ourselves. |
Then we need to open an issue somewhere else, right? Where then? |
That is really too bad. Is there any way that GitHub opens up the possibility for someone to help implement it for them? I consider this a major feature for Microsoft's Polyglot Notebooks. |
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When creating .NET Interactive notebooks with the
.dib
file format, I would like to upload the notebooks to GitHub and/or GitHub Gist to share direct links to or embed in webpages.Describe the solution you'd like
I would like the
.dib
format to render in the browser just as.ipynb
notebooks render. This Gist contains the same content in.dib
and.ipynb
formats, and only the latter renders.The major benefit of the render is that Gists can be easily embedded, such as in blogs, and
.ipynb
notebooks are still rendered when embedded.Describe alternatives you've considered
Convert the
.dib
format notebooks to the.ipynb
format. However, I prefer the.dib
format since the raw format is much more concise and readable. I also prefer not having the Python association in my notebook file names. 🙂A related discussion thread is #467, but I thought it would be good having a separate issue tracking this. It isn't clear to me how one gets custom file formats to render on GitHub. From my searching, it appears that GitHub doesn't expose a public method to do this and needs to implement the rendering themselves. Maybe the .NET Interactive team would have to collaborate with the GitHub team on that internally?
