Workaround for saving notebooks using a command

[jlmanaloto]

Jupyterlab doesn't seem to support saving a notebook when the following is run:

from IPython.display import display, Javascript
display(Javascript('IPython.notebook.save_checkpoint();'))

Are there any workaround in order to trigger a save after running a cell?

Correct, that javascript code is very specific to the classic notebook, and won't work in other frontends.

The way to do this in JupyterLab is to write a jupyterlab extension, which could listen to cell executions and trigger a save.
