nbcommands

nbcommands bring the goodness of Unix commands to Jupyter notebooks.

Installation

You can simply use pip to install nbcommands:

$ pip install nbcommands

or conda:

$ conda install -c conda-forge nbcommands

nbcommands installs the following commands which let you interact with your Jupyter notebooks without spinning up a notebook server.

nbtouch: Update the access and modification times of each Jupyter notebook to the current time.
```
  $ nbtouch notebook1.ipynb notebook2.ipynb
```

nbgrep: Search for a pattern in Jupyter notebooks.

  $ nbgrep "os" notebook1.ipynb notebook2.ipynb
  $ nbgrep "os" directory/

nbhead: Print the first 5 cells of a Jupyter notebook to standard output.
```
  $ nbhead notebook1.ipynb
```
Note: You can also specify the number of cells you want to print using the -n option.
```
  $ nbhead -n 10 notebook1.ipynb
```
nbtail: Print the last 5 cells of a Jupyter notebook to standard output.
```
  $ nbtail notebook2.ipynb
```
Note: You can also specify the number of cells you want to print using the -n option.
```
  $ nbtail -n 10 notebook2.ipynb
```
nbcat: Concatenate Jupyter notebooks to standard output.
```
  $ nbcat notebook1.ipynb notebook2.ipynb
```
Note: You can create a new notebook by concatenating multiple notebooks using the -o option.
```
  $ nbcat notebook1.ipynb notebook2.ipynb -o notebook3.ipynb
```
nbless: Print a Jupyter notebook using a pager program.
```
  $ nbless notebook1.ipynb
```

And some non-Unix goodness,

nbblack: Blacken Jupyter notebooks.

  $ nbblack notebook1.ipynb notebook2.ipynb
