That would be nice. I often think about it. Technically what is needed is support for workspace-wide edits and some UI. Alternatively it could be achieved by resolving https://github.com/jupyterlab-contrib/search-replace/issues/79 and using that extension.
Additionally, other refactoring feature is missing, like extract variable or method, etc, and not very convenient when writing a project using jupyterlab. Maybe we can leverage more function in rope.
Also, Thanks for the alternative proposal of using search-replace. it's really great, but it different from refactoring feature (e.g. it cannot handle file rename and extraction, etc). BTW, search-replace cannot be used in jupyterlab-desktop (issue opened here)
Elevator Pitch
Any plan for the rename based on the whole project directory including file rename (more like a refactoring feature). It's better to support both .ipynb and .py
Motivation
current rename function works within one file either .ipynb or .py. It's not that convenient when I want to rename a .py module or function/class in this module. Rather, I need to change all related reference.
Design Ideas
current IDE like vscode or pycharm has supported this. for example below video.
