如何从IPython Notebook内部强制自动重新加载库

Question

I'm just learning IPython Notebook, using a pre-existing Python library I've written. At the beginning of my notebook, I'm importing it in the normal way.

However, I'm still modifying this library. I notice that changes I'm making to it don't seem to be reflected, even when I reload the notebook in the browser.

How can I force a reload of the library from inside IPython notebook?

Answer 1

Use the magic autoreload to get your module refreshed automatically as you edit it.

For instance, if you develop a module called mylibrary :

%load_ext autoreload
%autoreload 1
%aiimport mylibrary

will automatically reload the module mylibrary .

You can ask to get all modules automatically reloaded with:

%autoreload 2
