[IPython-dev] [ANN ] Jupyter tools: tex2ipy and ipyaml

[Prabhu Ramachandran]

Hi everyone,

I'd like to announce a couple of simple packages related to Jupyter notebooks.

tex2ipy:  https://github.com/prabhuramachandran/tex2ipy

This simple tool makes it relatively easy to convert a LaTeX beamer presentation
to a Jupyter/IPython notebook using RISE[1].

The second tool is:

ipyaml: https://github.com/prabhuramachandran/ipyaml

This allows Jupyter to store notebook files as easy-to-edit YAML files.  It
supports both code/markdown and outputs so is entirely compatible with .ipynb
files (version 4 of the notebook format).  Output dumping can be disabled if
needed.  This package is similar to notedown and ipymd but offers complete
compatibility with .ipynb files.

Installation
------------

Both packages can be installed using pip.

   $ pip install tex2ipy  # Works only with Python3.x

   $ pip install ipyaml


cheers,
Prabhu
