Jupyter runners allows to run multiple notebooks over multiple sets of parameters.
Notebook execution can happen in parallel with a fixed number of workers.
pip install jupyter-runner
jupyter-runner [options] <notebook>... --parameter-file=<PARAMETER_FILE>** Optional parameters files containing one parameter instance by line, setting the environment. Example with 2 sets of 3 parameters: VAR1=VAL1 VAR2=VAL2 VAR3=VAL3 VAR1=VAL5 VAR2=VAL18 VAR3=VAL42 --workers=<workers> Maximum number of parallel execution [Default: 1] --output-directory=<OUTPUT_DIRECTORY> Output directory [Default: .] --overwrite Overwrite output files if they already exist. --format=<FORMAT> Output format: html, notebook... [Default: html] --debug Enable debug logs --help Display this help --version Display version --timeout=<TIMEOUT> Cell execution timeout in seconds. [Default: -1] --allow-errors Allow errors during notebook execution.
jupyter-runner notebook.ipynb
By default, the process creates output file notebook.html in current directory.
jupyter-runner notebookA.ipynb notebookB.ipynb
By default, the process creates output files notebookA.html and notebookB.html in current directory.
Use environment variables on command-line.
ENV_VAR=xxx jupyter-runner notebook.ipynb
In python notebook, variables can be retrieved using os.environ
:
import os
env_var = os.environ.get('ENV_VAR', 'a_default_value')
# usage of env_var in your code
By default, the process creates output file notebook.html in current directory. The notebook variables passed by the user can impact the rendering of the output.
Create a file with multiple set of parameters, one set of parameters per line.
Example file containing 2 sets of 3 parameters:
VAR1=VAL1 VAR2=VAL2 VAR3=VAL3 VAR1=VAL5 VAR2=VAL18 VAR3='VAL42 with space'
Then run jupyter-runner specifying the path to my_parameter_file
just created:
jupyter-runner --parameter-file=my_parameter_file notebook.ipynb
By default, the process creates output files notebook_1.html and notebook_2.html in current directory.
jupyter-runner can combine multiple set of parameters on multiple notebooks.
When there are N
sets of parameters running on M
notebooks, there will be NxM
distinct output files.
jupyter-runner --parameter-file=my_parameter_file notebookA.ipynb notebookB.ipynb
By default, the process creates output files notebookA_1.html, notebookA_2.html, notebookB_1.html, notebookB_2.html in current directory.
jupyter-runner --output-directory results notebook.ipynb
The process create output file results/notebook.html`.
``results
directory is created if it does not pre-exist.
jupyter-runner --output-directory=s3://bucket/results/ s3://bucket/notebooks/notebook.ipynb
The process create output file s3://bucket/results/notebook.html
based on a notebook stored from S3.
Files are downloaded to a local temporary only available to the current user and removed at the end or in case of exceptions.
By default, jupyter-runner skip the run when output file(s) already exists.
To overwrite the files, use the --overwrite
option:
jupyter-runner --overwrite notebook.ipynb
By default, only 1 notebook will be executed at the same time.
Use --workers
option to specify the number of notebooks to run in parallel.
jupyter-runner --workers 3 --parameter-file=my_parameter_file notebookA.ipynb notebookB.ipynb
The above command will start to run 3 notebook output over the 4 requested. When the first execution finishes, the 4th notebook is launched and so on.
List of possible output types are available here: https://nbconvert.readthedocs.io/en/latest/usage.html#default-output-format-html
jupyter-runner --format notebook --output-directory results notebook.ipynb
jupyter-runner --hide-input notebook.ipynb
The process create output file notebook.html
without any input cells.
Markdown and output cells are kept, but input code cells do not show.
This feature is handy to create user-friendly reports.
When multiple notebooks are run with a list of parameters, output filenames are suffixed by _1
, _2
, ...
This default can be overriden by setting parameter JUPYTER_OUTPUT_SUFFIX in parameter set.
Example my_parameter_file
:
VAR1=VAL1 VAR2=VAL2 VAR3=VAL3 JUPYTER_OUTPUT_SUFFIX=AAA VAR1=VAL5 VAR2=VAL18 VAR3='VAL42 with space' JUPYTER_OUTPUT_SUFFIX=BBB
jupyter-runner --parameter-file=my_parameter_file notebook.ipynb
This run will generate two files: notebook_AAA.html
and notebook_BBB.html
By default, timeout is set to -1, meaning infinite.
It is possible to set the cell execution timeout (in seconds) with --timeout
jupyter-runner --timeout 60 notebook.ipynb
By default, errors in notebook execution stops its execution and return an error code.
Setting --allow-errors
option allows to ignore the error and continue the execution, returning a valid code.
jupyter-runner --allow-errors notebook.ipynb
You can send an e-mail containing attachments using --mail-to
option.
Other mail options available (subject, from, cc, bcc...) as well as attaching
each output in separate file or regrouped together within a LZMA compressed
zip (default).
