A small utility for teaching with IPython notebooks: generate a student version of the notebook with the exercises cleared, while keeping your master version with the solutions.
To install this, git clone the repo and then do:
git clone https://github.com/jorisvandenbossche/nbtutor.git
cd nbtutor
python setup.py develop
Further, you need to copy the nbextension to your IPython folder:
cp nbextensions/* $(ipython locate)/nbextensions/
To ensure the the extension is loaded automatically, edit your your custom.js
(found in $(ipython locate profile)/static/custom/custom.js) to include the
following:
$([IPython.events]).on("app_initialized.NotebookApp", function () {
IPython.load_extensions("excluder");
});
And for converting, add to your ipython_nbconvert_config.py file (inside
your profile folder):
c = get_config()
c.Exporter.preprocessors = ['nbtutor.ClearExcercisePreprocessor']
and then run the following nbconvert command to convert a notebook:
ipython nbconvert notebook.ipynb --to notebook
