Release: 
hide_code is an extension for Jupyter/IPython notebooks to selectively hide code and prompts. Make a notebook a code free document for presenting with a single click by pressing 
Or customize each cell by selecting "Hide code" from the Cell Toolbar dropdown. Then use "Hide Code" and "Hide Prompts" checkboxes to hide the specific cell's code or cell's input/output prompts.
Exporting respects hide code/prmpt cell selections only. Output is saved in Jupyter's current working directory with the notebook's file name + '.html' or '.pdf'. Exporting to PDF via notebook requires wkhtmltopdf!
This feature continues to evolve. Items on the road map incude:
- saving to a different file loaction.
- saving as a different file name.
- support for custom CSS.
- single click exporting with all code and prompts hidden (similar to how the toolbar button).
To export via HTML or PDF simply click on the respective button.
To export via nbconvert command line, nbconvert 4.2 or later is required. Hide_code adds two export options to nbconvert, hide_code_html and hide_code_pdf.
Note: PDF exporting via command line uses nbconvert's built in PDF exporter.
jupyter nbconvert --to hide_code_html notebook_to_convert.ipynb
jupyter nbconvert --to hide_code_pdf notebook_to_convert.ipynb
pip install hide_code
- Download and unzip this repository.
- Change to unzipped directory.
- Execute
python setup.py install
If installation complains the directory doesn't exist, you're Jupyter/IPython installation probably isn't in one of the usual places. Locate Jupyter's configuration directory, then use code below to install in a non-standard directory.
import hide_code.hide_code as hc
dir = "<full path to Jupyter config directory>"
hc.install(dir)- Jupyter notebook 4.x+
- Jupyter nbconvert 4.2+ if using nbconvert command line exporting
- pdfkit & wkhtmltopdf
- Python 2.7 or 3.3+
