Using Jupyter API to run an ipynb

[saso...@colorado.edu]

Hi,

I am trying to use the Jupyter API to run a Jupyter Notebook. For this, I looked up the API, but I could not find a way to run the notebook. Am I missing something?

I am currently referring this:

https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/blob/master/notebook/services/api/api.yaml

Thanks,

Saurabh

There isn't an API for running a notebook. There is a `contents` API for reading/writing files (including notebooks) and a `kernels` API for starting kernels and running code via websockets. To run a notebook requires using both of these APIs to open the notebook, connect a kernel, and then request execution of each cell via a websocket request.

Thanks for the reply. Are there any code samples I could refer to running the notebook using Websockets?

Thanks,

What are you trying to achieve? It might be simpler to fetch the notebook and run it locally (nbconvert has machinery to execute a notebook).

I am trying to integrate an notebook in my own project. Basically, I just want to be able to read an ipynb, and run code. I will look into nbconvert as well.

Thanks,

The docs here describe executing a notebook from Python or from the command line:
