[IPython-dev] What's the easiest way to render an .ipynb file as html?

[Jacob Vanderplas]

Here's an example of a possible approach:

from IPython.nbformat import current as nbformat
from IPython.nbconvert.exporters import HTMLExporter

input_file = 'notebook.ipynb'
output_file = 'notebook.html'

with open(input_file) as f:
    notebook_content = f.read()

exporter = HTMLExporter(template_file='full')
nb_json = nbformat.reads_json(notebook_content)
(body, resources) = exporter.from_notebook_node(nb_json)

with open(output_file, 'w') as f:
    f.write(body)

Hope that helps!
   Jake
