Notebook Mode

Notebook Mode#

Activate ITables in a Jupyter environment for all your tables with init_notebook_mode:

import itables

itables.init_notebook_mode()

You can go back to the standard HTML representation of Pandas DataFrames with init_notebook_mode(all_interactive=False).

df = itables.sample_dfs.get_countries()
df
Loading ITables v2.5.2 from the init_notebook_mode cell... (need help?)

Note that the init_connected_mode function also activates ITable’s offline mode, unless you call it with a connected=False argument.

Offline mode#

By default init_connected_mode configures ITables to work offline (except in Colab). No internet connection is required as the JavaScript code is embedded into the notebook itself when you execute init_notebook_mode.

In some contexts (Jupyter Book, Google Colab, etc…) you might prefer to load the libraries dynamically from the internet. To do so, add the argument connected=True when you execute init_notebook_mode. This will also make your notebook lighter by about 900kB. Note that, in Google Colab, connected=True is the only working option.

Show#

If you prefer to render only certain tables using itables, or want to set additional options, use show:

itables.show(df, caption="A DataFrame rendered with ITables")
