nb : dict

The notebook structure

name : string

The filename of the notebook

path : string

The notebook’s directory
copy_notebook(from_name, to_name=None, path='')

Returns a checkpoint_id for the new checkpoint.

create_notebook(model=None, path='')

Create a new notebook and return its model with no content.

delete_checkpoint(checkpoint_id, name, path='')

delete a checkpoint for a notebook

delete_notebook(name, path='')

Delete notebook by name and path.

get_dir_model(name, path='')

Get the directory model given a directory name and its API style path.

The keys in the model should be: * name * path * last_modified * created * type=’directory’

get_notebook(name, path='', content=True)

Get the notebook model with or without content.

increment_filename(basename, path='')

Increment a notebook filename without the .ipynb to make it unique.

list_checkpoints(name, path='')

Return a list of checkpoints for a given notebook

list_dirs(path)

List the directory models for a given API style path.

list_notebooks(path='')

Return a list of notebook dicts without content.

This returns a list of dicts, each of the form:

dict(notebook_id=notebook,name=name)

This list of dicts should be sorted by name:

data = sorted(data, key=lambda item: item['name'])
mark_trusted_cells(nb, name, path='')
