Jupyter reload custom.css?

Question

I'm using Jupyer 4.3.0. I find that when I update my ~/.jupyter/custom/custom.css , the changes are not reflected in my notebook until I kill jupyter-notebook and start it again. This is annoying, so how can I make Jupyter Notebook recognize the custom.css file changes without completely restarting the notebook?

Answer 1

I'm using Jupyter 5.0. Right now I've tried to edit custom.css and the changes are reflected immediately after reloading a page without restarting.

I'm not sure about 4.3 version, but I guess it should work the same way. What did the property you change?

Answer 2

The /custom/custom.css stopped working for me when I generated a config file, but if anyone stumbles to this problem too, the solution is to uncomment the line c.NotebookApp.extra_static_paths = [] in the jupyter_notebook_config.py file and add "./custom/" - or whatever path you chose for your custom css - inside the brackets.

PS: OS is Linux Manjaro 5.12 and Jupyter Notebook version is 6.3.0.
