syntax highlighting in ipython console
I am using ipython both in qtconsole and in the terminal
In ipython-qtconsole , when I type import pandas as pd the words have syntax highlighting.
However, when I type in the console, all text is white
Is it possible to have syntax highlighting in python console as well?
my ipython versions are;
ipython 1.2.1
ipython-qtconsole 1.2.1
Yes, if you use IPython 5.0 or above, It makes uses of Python Prompt Toolkit which does highlight code as you type, as well as support real, and sane multi-line edition.
To upgrade use :
pip install ipython --upgrade
This is based on the work of Jonathan Slenders on ptpython:
python -m pip install ptpython
which provide 2 commands: ptpython and ptipython which should syntax highlight in your terminal. ptipython is a proof of concept so will likely miss some functionality of IPython, but push the interface a bit further.
Note that jupyter-console, which can connect to IPython as a kernel will also make use of prompt toolkit and highlight code as you type.
Jupyter， ipython的笔记本电脑的副产品，提供了命令jupyter console ，这正是你（和我）正在寻找的东西。
