Hi @rowanc1 - thanks for the comment! Could you expand more on what you'd like to see (based on your use cases). At least for me, the jupyter-book CLI takes care of mostly everything. My simple workflow is pretty much as follows:
jupyter-book clean
(clean files, not necessary but I like to start from a clean slate)jupyter-book build
(this is really what I would have used make for in the past I suppose)git push
would trigger the online deployment for me (but that depends on having GH Actions set up and if you actually want to deploy online)I usually speed up the build by caching executed notebooks.
But if others are using the CLI in a different way that would benefit from a Makefile I'd be interested to hear.
The make file that I just created is below. :)
I completely agree that it is a bit redundant, my reflex, I suppose, is to reach for make
commands over various CLIs because I move between a lot of projects and am forgetful.
The watch and serve commands below are nice to have when I am writing and I hit save, then the book rebuilds! Some of the integrations that I am building to jupyter-book also require the book to be run locally on a web server rather than off the file system.
.PHONY: build serve watch
build:
jupyter-book build .
watch:
nodemon -w './**' -e yml,md,ipynb --exec jupyter-book build .
serve:
cd _build/html; python -m http.server 9000
Awesome thanks! That's helpful (and interesting to know how you're using JB). I'm going to leave this issue open for a bit to see if there's any other interest :)
Wondering if including a
Makefile
might be a good idea? To me this is very helpful in onboarding to repositories as I can look to see what the commands are, and my previous relationships with sphinx always had Makefiles I believe?!Even if they are small wrappers on the
jupyter-book
CLImake build/html/docs/serve
