Open .ipynb in browser from command line

Question

How do I open a .ipynb file in the browser from the command line? I've tried:

$ jupyter my_notebook.ipynb 

But I get the cryptic:

Error executing Jupyter command 'my_notebook.ipynb': [Errno 2] No such file or directory

It's weird because that file exists (and is readable) as named.

I'm running:

$ jupyter --version
4.4.0

Answer 1

You can open a named .ipynb file by running either:

• jupyter notebook my_notebook.ipynb
• jupyter-notebook my_notebook.ipynb

The only difference between the two is the hyphen.

I have reported the poor error message in the question in this issue.
