'''This project''' aims to support the '''opposite direction''': running (and filling) Jupyter Notebook within GNU Octave. This would enable Jupyter Notebook users to evaluate '''long running Octave Notebooks''' on a computing server without permanent browser connection, which is [https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/issues/1647 still a pending issue]. | '''This project''' aims to support the '''opposite direction''': running (and filling) Jupyter Notebook within GNU Octave. This would enable Jupyter Notebook users to evaluate '''long running Octave Notebooks''' on a computing server without permanent browser connection, which is [https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/issues/1647 still a pending issue]. To achieve this, different strategies are possible: | ||
In general | # Synchronize an internal Octave data structure (e.g. classdef object) with the Jupyter Notebook. Probably the safest approach, but does not enable any interactivity from the Octave GUI. | ||
# Import/export a Jupyter Notebook as Octave script (translate non-code sections to comments and vice versa). Files can be edited from the Octave GUI, but probably conversion losses might occur (e.g. embedded graphics). | |||
# A synthesis of both approaches? | |||
In general a [https://nbformat.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ Jupyter Notebook] is a plain JSON document, which will be supported in Octave 7 (current development version) or through the [https://gnu-octave.github.io/pkg-index/package/pkg-json JSON package] for older Octave versions. | |||
