The nbconvert tool, jupyter nbconvert, converts notebooks to various other
formats via Jinja templates. The nbconvert tool allows you to convert an
.ipynb notebook file into various static formats including:
- HTML
- LaTeX
- Reveal JS
- Markdown (md)
- ReStructured Text (rst)
- executable script
From the command line, use nbconvert to convert a Jupyter notebook (input) to a a different format (output). The basic command structure is:
$ jupyter nbconvert --to <output format> <input notebook>
where <output format> is the desired output format and <input notebook> is the
filename of the Jupyter notebook.
Convert Jupyter notebook file, mynotebook.ipynb, to HTML using:
$ jupyter nbconvert --to html mynotebook.ipynb
This command creates an HTML output file named mynotebook.html.
Nbconvert 6.0 provides limited support for Python 3.6 (3.6.1 or greater), and support will be dropped with nbconvert 6.1. Limited support means we will test and run CI on Python 3.6.12 or higher. Issues that are found only affecting Python 3.6 are not guaranteed to be fixed. We recommend all users of nbconvert use Python 3.7 and higher.
