Jupyter ntfy

Get ntfy.sh push notifications when Jupyter notebook cells finish running. Useful for long-running cells — get notified on your phone, desktop, or any device.

Preview

Features

• Bell icon in each cell's toolbar to toggle notifications
• Push notifications via ntfy.sh when cells complete or fail
• Markdown-formatted messages with cell input and output
• In-editor popup notifications with "Go to Cell" and "Disable Notifications" actions
• Persistent toggles — bell states are saved to notebook metadata and restored on reopen

Requirements

• VS Code 1.74+
• Jupyter extension for VS Code

Installation

From the Marketplace

1. Open Extensions (Ctrl+Shift+X)
2. Search for "Jupyter ntfy"
3. Click Install

Setup

1. Install the ntfy app on your phone or subscribe to a topic at ntfy.sh
2. Pick a unique, hard-to-guess topic name (e.g. my-jupyter-x7k2m9)
3. In VS Code, open Settings and search for jupyter-ntfy
4. Set your topic name
5. Open a Jupyter notebook, click the bell icon on a cell, and run it

Settings

How it works

When a cell with notifications enabled finishes executing, the extension:

1. Shows a VS Code notification with the result
2. Sends a POST request to https://ntfy.sh/<your-topic> with:
   • Title: filename.ipynb - Cell N finished (or failed)
   • Body: Markdown-formatted cell input and output
   • Tags: checkmark or X emoji based on success/failure

Privacy

• No backend server — notifications are sent directly from VS Code to ntfy.sh
• No accounts or credentials — ntfy.sh topics are open by default; pick a topic name that is hard to guess
• No telemetry — the extension does not collect or transmit any data beyond the ntfy notification itself
