How to use deepreload for autoreload in iPython

Question

I currently use this to autoreload in python

%reload_ext autoreload
%autoreload 2

however, I would like to start using deepreload (https://ipython.org/ipython-doc/3/api/generated/IPython.lib.deepreload.html)

However the below does not work:

import builtins
from IPython.lib import deepreload
builtins.reload = deepreload.reload

%reload_ext autoreload
%autoreload 2

How can I get deep autoreload in jupyter

Answer 1

Just reverse the order

%load_ext autoreload
%autoreload 2

import builtins
from IPython.lib import deepreload
builtins.reload = deepreload.reload
