import a github into jupyter notebook directly?

Question

Hey Im creating a jupyter notebook, would like to install:

https://github.com/voice32/stock_market_indicators/blob/master/indicators.py which is a python program

not sure how to do it directly so anybody that dowloads the notebook can just hit "Run All", and see the results

option 1) do something like: from https://github.com/voice32/stock_market_indicators/blob/master/indicators.py import indicators.py

of course this doesn't work

Solution

You can clone the repository from your jupyter notebook using bash. Run in your cell:

%%bash
git clone https://github.com/voice32/stock_market_indicators

This will clone the stock_market_indicators repository to your directory.

You will now be able to access the functions in your indicators.py file. You can import it by running in jupyter:

%load stock_market_indicators/indicators.py
