Importing/converting python scripts as colab notebook-CodePudding

I want to explore and edit my .py files (python scripts) in the form of colab notebook. I already the uploaded my files in google drive and mounted in the environment. I can edit the file in the right pane but I want to open it as a notebook. I search the web but I couldn't find any solution for that. Is there any way to do so?

CodePudding user response：

Let's say your file is script.py. You can use %%writefile script.py to edit your script.py inside the cell of jupyter notebook.

%writefile [-a] filename

Write the contents of the cell to a file.

The file will be overwritten unless the -a (--append) flag is specified.

positional arguments:
  filename      file to write

optional arguments:
  -a, --append  Append contents of the cell to an existing file. The file will
                be created if it does not exist.

To read it, use !cat.

!cat script.py

You need to upload your code as a .ipynb in order for colab to open it as a notebook or create a new colaboratory in your drive and post your code to it

EDIT: Alternatively you could create a Colaboratory and import your .py like this:

import importlib.util
spec = importlib.util.spec_from_file_location("test1.moduleName", "/content/drive/MyDrive/Colab Notebooks/test1.py")
foo = importlib.util.module_from_spec(spec)
spec.loader.exec_module(foo)
foo.MyClass()
