Assuming you've got a url for the repo, you can | Assuming you've got a url for the repo, you can create an egg for it this way: | ||
import sys | |||
import os | |||
!git clone <repo url> && cd <repo-name> && python setup.py bdist_egg | !git clone <repo url> && cd <repo-name> && python setup.py bdist_egg | ||
sc.addPyFile('<repo-name>/dist/my-egg-file.egg') | sc.addPyFile('<repo-name>/dist/my-egg-file.egg') | ||
sys.path.append(os.path.join(os.getcwd(), '<repo-name>/dist/my-egg-file.egg')) | |||
Alternately, you could just create that egg locally, upload it to a web server, then download and install it: | |||
import requests | |||
import sys | |||
import os | |||
r = requests.get('<url-to-my-egg-file>') | |||
with open('mylibrary.egg', 'wb') as f: | |||
f.write(r.content) | |||
sc.addPyFile('mylibrary.egg') | |||
sys.path.append(os.path.join(os.getcwd(), 'mylibrary.egg')) | |||
You will want to do this '''before''' you load the library. If the library is already loaded, restart the kernel in the ipython notebook. | |||
