Problems setting up a new theme in Ipython?

问题

I would like to use another theme for Ipython notebook so I following this instructions the problem is I'm in OSX and I dont have the wget, I installed it homebrew. Could somebody help me to set ipython notebooks in a dark theme?. I tried this:

brew /Users/user/.ipython/profile_notebooks/static/custom/custom.css
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nsonnad/base16-ipython-notebook/master/base16-ocean-dark.css

You can do it with curl or by manually downloading the theme. I have given steps for both the options below.

Create a custom profile using the following command:

ipython profile create ocean

Replace the content of the default stylesheet custom.css with that of the required theme using the following command

Using curl:

curl -o `ipython locate profile ocean`/static/custom/custom.css https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nsonnad/base16-ipython-notebook/master/base16-ocean-dark.css

Start the IPython notebook by specifying the custom profile e.g.

ipython notebook --profile=ocean

---

Alternative:

If you are not able to download using curl, you can simply download the base16-ocean-dark.css and replace the custom.css in the custom directory of your created profile.

Locate the profile directory:

ipython locate profile ocean

Go to its static/custom directory and replace the content of custom.css with that of downloaded css file. Start the IPython notebook by specifying the custom profile as shown above.

Amit's answer isn't fit for ipython=>4.0, as jupyter is divided from it now.

You can try jupyter-themes. It is suit for ipython=>4.0 and much more easy to install.

Install jupyter-themes

$ pip install --upgrade jupyterthemes

Pick a theme and install

# list themes (located in ~/.jupyter-themes)
$ jt -l

# install theme (-t) for jupyter nb
# theme names: oceans16 | grade3 | space-legos
$ jt -t grade3

# install a theme (-t) with toolbar (-T) enabled
$ jt -T -t grade3

# install a theme (-t) and set font-size (-f), default value is 11
$ jt -f 12 -t grade3

# reset (-r) to default for jupyter theme
$ jt -r

I've added jupyter-themes to pypi under the name jupyterthemes.

To install the latest version:

#uninstall any old versions
pip uninstall jupyter-themes 
#install the latest version (no hyphen)
pip install jupyterthemes

Hopefully that takes care of any issues people were having with themes not showing up (@llya).
