Jupyter Notebooks are great but they can also suck if,

• You want to develop a production-able data pipeline
• You want to structure your code according to software engineering principles (no code duplication, tdd)
• You want to run code from command-line and in a long running process
• You don't want to get stuck in a non-linear coding workflow

Anyhow Jupyter Notebooks are great for:

• Interactive and iterative fast feedback data exploration
• Sharing Results with Stakeholders and fellow Data Scientist

That is why @elehcimd came up with the great pynb tool, to bridge the gap between software development and data analysis worflow.

However the great feature of interactivity got lost in his effort. pynb-live is a small cli tool that uses livereload to enable a interactive web-dev like data analysis workflow

Demo

pynb-live is watching your notebooks directory.

Usage

pip install pynb-live
pynb-live --help

Install the livereload chrome plugin, fire up pynb-live activate the connection, add a new pynb file and start seeing the magic work.
