Config file and command line options#

Jupyter nbclient can be run with a variety of command line arguments. A list of available options can be found below in the options section.

Options#

This list of options can be generated by running the following and hitting enter:

$ jupyter execute --help-all

Application.log_datefmtUnicode

Default: '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'

The date format used by logging formatters for %(asctime)s

Application.log_formatUnicode

Default: '[%(name)s]%(highlevel)s %(message)s'

The Logging format template

Application.log_levelany of 0``|``10``|``20``|``30``|``40``|``50``|’DEBUG’|’INFO’|’WARN’|’ERROR’|’CRITICAL’``

Default: 30

Set the log level by value or name.

Application.logging_configDict

Default: {}

Configure additional log handlers.

The default stderr logs handler is configured by the log_level, log_datefmt and log_format settings.

This configuration can be used to configure additional handlers (e.g. to output the log to a file) or for finer control over the default handlers.

If provided this should be a logging configuration dictionary, for more information see: https://docs.python.org/3/library/logging.config.html#logging-config-dictschema

This dictionary is merged with the base logging configuration which defines the following:

A logging formatter intended for interactive use called console.
A logging handler that writes to stderr called console which uses the formatter console.
A logger with the name of this application set to DEBUG level.

This example adds a new handler that writes to a file:

c.Application.logging_config = {
    "handlers": {
        "file": {
            "class": "logging.FileHandler",
            "level": "DEBUG",
            "filename": "<path/to/file>",
        }
    },
    "loggers": {
        "<application-name>": {
            "level": "DEBUG",
            # NOTE: if you don't list the default "console"
            # handler here then it will be disabled
            "handlers": ["console", "file"],
        },
    },
}
