Features
Emacs IPython Notebook (EIN) provides a IPython Notebook client and
integrated REPL (like SLIME_) in Emacs. While EIN makes notebook
editing very powerful by allowing you to use any Emacs features, it
also expose IPython features such as code evaluation, object
inspection and code completion to the Emacs side. These features can
be accessed anywhere in Emacs and improve Python code editing and
reading in Emacs.
.. _SLIME: http://common-lisp.net/project/slime/
Highlighted features:
- Copy/paste cells, even to/from different notebooks.
- Console integration: You can easily connect to kernel via console
application. This enables you to start debugging in the same
kernel. It is even possible to connect console over ssh.
- IPython kernel can be "connected" to any buffers. This enables you
to evaluate buffer/region using same kernel as notebook. Notebook
goodies such as tooltip help, help browser and code completion are
available in these buffers.
- Jump to definition (go to the definition by hitting
M-.
over an
object).
Other notebook features:
- Inline images
- Auto/manual-completion
- Popup (tooltip) help
- Syntax highlighting in each cell types (Python/Markdown)
- Help browser (opens when executing
function?
)
- Traceback viewer

Quick try
This is a quick and clean way to try EIN separately from your Emacs
setting. If you want to try EIN but think preparing all the
requirements is too much, try this!::
git clone git://github.com/tkf/emacs-ipython-notebook.git
cd emacs-ipython-notebook/
lisp/zeroein.el
This will launch a new Emacs instance.
You can use environment variable EMACS
to control Emacs executable
to use.::
EMACS=emacs-snapshot lisp/zeroein.el
The above command requires /bin/sh. If the above command does not work
(e.g., you are using MS Windows), try the following command::
emacs -Q -l lisp/zeroein.el
Requirements
- IPython_ 0.12 or higher.
websocket.el
_ 0.9
request.el
_ >= 0.2
- (optional) mumamo developmental version:
It will be automatically loaded when it is on the path.
The official way to setup path is to load nXhtml.
- (optional) markdown-mode
- (optional) python-mode:
It should work with either python.el or python-mode.el.
Fabian Gallina's
python.el
_ is required to use
ein:console-open
command.
- (optional)
auto-complete.el
_
You need to configure subpackage ein-ac
to enable
this feature.
- (optional)
smartrep.el
_:
This package enables you to omit typing prefix keys (e.g.,
C-c C-n C-n C-n ...
instead of C-c C-n C-c C-n C-c C-n ...
).
You need to configure subpackage ein-smartrep
to enable
this feature.
Also, EIN heavily relies on standard Emacs libraries including EWOC,
EIEIO and json.el. EIN is currently tested against Emacs 23.3 and 24.3.
It is known to work in Emacs 23.2, 24.1 and 24.2.

Keybinds - Connect
------------------
In Python (or any other) buffer, you can connect to any open notebook
by ``M-x ein:connect-to-notebook`` then choose appropriate notebook.
After connecting to the notebook (and hence its kernel), the following
commands are available.
.. (ein:dev-insert-mode-map "\\{ein:connect-mode-map}")
