%magic can be after indent or tab

[yasirroni]

I have a code that I expect to work both in colab and jupyter, also in .py

FROM_GOOGLE_COLAB = True
PROJECT_FOLDER = '/content/drive/MyDrive/SOME_REPO_NAME'
if FROM_GOOGLE_COLAB:
    !pip install somepackages

    from google.colab import drive
    drive.mount('/content/drive')
    %cd $PROJECT_FOLDER

But, jupytext didn't translate %cd as magic if it's indented or some white space exists before it.

%cd
!pip install somepackages 

# become:
# %cd
# !pip install somepackages 


if True:
    %cd
    !pip install somepackages
    pass

# become:
if True:
    %cd # not works
    # !pip install somepackages 
    pass

Hi @yasirroni , thank you for reporting this... I was not aware that one could use indented magic commands 😄
That should be pretty easy to fix, I'll have a look soon.

Hi @yasirroni , I have added a fix for this, it's on master now.

You can give it a try with

BUILD_JUPYTERLAB_EXTENSION=1 pip install git+https://github.com/mwouts/jupytext.git
# jupyter labextension install [email protected]  # If you use Jupyter Lab 2.x

@mwouts If I use pip and jupyter notebook, how to install or upgrade the new jupytext extension from the master branch?

I strongly suggest this as a new issue and add this method to the readme!

Oh sure! Well the command above should work (but it requires nodejs). And the simpler form also works:

# Install Jupytext + the server extension + the notebook extension (but not the jupyter lab extension)
pip install git+https://github.com/mwouts/jupytext.git
