[PYTHON] Post a Jupyter Notebook as a blog post

This is a continuation of Last time.

Last time I posted a blog using Nikola's default formats, reStructuredText and Markdown. This time I will post a blog using ipynb format (Jupyter Notebook).

Preparation

Edit conf.py directly under the site directory. Add an entry with the extension ʻipynb`.

• Before editing

conf.py

POSTS = (
    ("posts/*.rst", "posts", "post.tmpl"),
    ("posts/*.md", "posts", "post.tmpl"),
    ("posts/*.txt", "posts", "post.tmpl"),
    ("posts/*.html", "posts", "post.tmpl"),
)
PAGES = (
    ("pages/*.rst", "pages", "page.tmpl"),
    ("pages/*.md", "pages", "page.tmpl"),
    ("pages/*.txt", "pages", "page.tmpl"),
    ("pages/*.html", "pages", "page.tmpl"),
)

• After editing

conf.py

POSTS = (
    ("posts/*.rst", "posts", "post.tmpl"),
    ("posts/*.md", "posts", "post.tmpl"),
    ("posts/*.txt", "posts", "post.tmpl"),
    ("posts/*.html", "posts", "post.tmpl"),
    ("posts/*.ipynb", "posts", "post.tmpl"),
)
PAGES = (
    ("pages/*.rst", "pages", "page.tmpl"),
    ("pages/*.md", "pages", "page.tmpl"),
    ("pages/*.txt", "pages", "page.tmpl"),
    ("pages/*.html", "pages", "page.tmpl"),
    ("pages/*.ipynb", "pages", "page.tmpl"),
)

Post

Execute the following command.

nikola new_post -f ipynb

Creating New Post
-----------------

Title:

Entering the title of the article will generate a post / titlename.ipynb file. Edit this file on Jupyter.

Build and confirm

The build is the same as last time.

nikola build
nikola serve -b

It will be posted like this.

Post from an already created ipynb file

• The ipynb file should be placed directly under the site directory / post.
• Select menu bar --Edit --Edit Notebook Metadata from the Jupyter Notebook and add an entry like the one below. " nikola ": is fixed, and the title etc. will be changed according to the article.

  "nikola": {
    "tags": "",
    "title": "post4",
    "date": "2017-06-17 15:15:00 UTC+09:00",
    "type": "text",
    "slug": "post4",
    "category": "",
    "link": "",
    "description": ""
  }

• Enter the contents of the Notebook and save it.
• Build in the same way as above.

nikola build
nikola serve -b

In this way, you can post as a blog post just by adding the notebook metadata.
