An example Jupyter Notebook¶
This notebook is a demonstration of directly-parsing Jupyter Notebooks into Sphinx using the MyST parser.1
Markdown¶
As you can see, markdown is parsed as expected. Embedding images should work as expected. For example, here’s the MyST-nb logo:
because MyST-NB is using the MyST-markdown parser, you can include rich markdown with Sphinx in your notebook. For example, here’s a note block:
Note
Wow, a note! It was generated with this code:
```{note}
Wow, a note!
```
Equations work as expected:
\begin{equation} \frac {\partial u}{\partial x} + \frac{\partial v}{\partial y} = - , \frac{\partial w}{\partial z} \end{equation}
And some MyST-specific features like equation numbering can be used in notebooks:
Euler’s identity, equation (1), was elected one of the most beautiful mathematical formulas.
You can see the syntax used for this example here.
Code cells and outputs¶
You can run cells, and the cell outputs will be captured and inserted into the resulting Sphinx site.
__repr__
and HTML outputs¶
For example, here’s some simple Python:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
data = np.random.rand(3, 100) * 100
data[:, :10]
Matplotlib is building the font cache; this may take a moment.
array([[ 7.65856217, 77.50683455, 76.6292053 , 75.50042516, 9.53204748,
20.57801603, 78.64515099, 71.24094754, 35.09063661, 78.64697143],
[81.67000198, 15.85152669, 35.30333755, 5.43947639, 44.94160698,
90.28811921, 82.06552136, 47.91661398, 19.41788208, 2.98159657],
[44.36282524, 34.64668099, 22.23518987, 49.44878042, 66.11661212,
15.05490797, 71.07759266, 8.03645309, 63.13802588, 73.9903403 ]])
This will also work with HTML outputs
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame(data.T, columns=['a', 'b', 'c'])
df.head()
a | b | c | |
---|---|---|---|
0 | 7.658562 | 81.670002 | 44.362825 |
1 | 77.506835 | 15.851527 | 34.646681 |
2 | 76.629205 | 35.303338 | 22.235190 |
3 | 75.500425 | 5.439476 | 49.448780 |
4 | 9.532047 | 44.941607 | 66.116612 |
as well as math outputs
from IPython.display import Math
Math("\sum_{i=0}^n i^2 = \frac{(n^2+n)(2n+1)}{6}")
This works for error messages as well:
print("This will be properly printed...")
print(thiswont)
This will be properly printed...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

----> 2 print(thiswont)
NameError: name 'thiswont' is not defined
Images¶
Images that are generated from your code (e.g., with Matplotlib) will also be embedded.
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
ax.scatter(*data, c=data[2])
