Can you save your session in Julia

Question

Im very new to Julia and was trying to save my session (all the values, including functions for example) and didnt see any easy way. There seems to be a pretty complete low level write function for ints, floats, arrays, etc. But it doesnt, for example, write a DataFrames. Is there an easy way to do this or do I need to code all this from scratch? Im using V0.2.1.

Answer 1

Have you tried using the iJulia notebook? This might be useful for what you're describing. https://github.com/JuliaLang/IJulia.jl

Answer 2

You can do this with HDF5.jl. I don't know how well it works for functions, but it should work fine for data frames and any other native Julia type.

For functions you want to keep, I would probably just define them in a regular .jl file and include("def.jl") at the start of the session, for example.
