doc_link doesn't understand default export

[pete88b]

nbdev allows module names to be different to notebook names via %nbdev_default_export but ... doc_link forces them to follow a specific pattern (if you want backtick links to your modules).

Please see this demo page for a more detailed explanation.

I'd really like to write a map of module to notebook names to _nbdev.py

• so doc_link doesn't have to assume that module and notebook names correspond and
• make is_lib_module work even when your project is not in sys.path

I think I've come up with a pretty good way to create a system-wide mapping, that will also allow namespace extension modules to work. Basically, I think we might be able to leverage setuptools entry points for this functionality.

In other news, nbconvert 6 is out, and has broken pretty much everything :( I've pinned the version number for nbdev for now to work around this problem. When I do tackle the upgrade, I'm reasonably likely to remove the magic and callback functionality, since although it's extremely cool, it's beyond my ability to understand and maintain - so you might want to create a fork in you're interested in continuing to maintain that functionality.

Not great news about nbconvert 6 @jph00 )o: please feel free to at-mention me if you'd like to offload any of this work.

Makes sense to kick out magic flags and callbacks - if it turns out people miss them, I think both could be implemented without changes to nbdev (i.e. by pre-processing notebooks before nbdev processes them).

Thanks so much :)

@pete88b it'll be a while b4 I can look at this, so if you do happen to have the time and inclination to remove either or both of these, I'd be very grateful! (But please don't feel obliged, mind you...)

[jph00]

@pete88b I'm going to start working on removing the magic flags now, so let me know ASAP if you've already made a start! :)

[jph00]

OK magic flags removal is done now. (In master, not released)
