FUSE filesystem trick makes grep usable on notebooks without modifying source files.

Strengths
  • On-the-fly transformation avoids creating duplicate stripped files on disk.
  • Supports multiple modes including full script conversion and output stripping.
Weaknesses
  • Requires FUSE permissions and running background daemon to function.
  • Linux-only implementation excludes macOS and Windows users entirely.
Target Audience

Data scientists and Python developers using Jupyter notebooks

Post Description

I wanted CLI tools like grep to work better with .ipynb files, ie. work on inputs and not on outputs. I created a tools that uses FUSE to strip notebooks on the fly.
