Exclude input/output prompt

[adrn]

Right now, as far as I can tell, there is no way to exclude the input or output prompt (the In[...]: and Out[...]:) from the rendered notebook pages. It looks like this is because they are added manually (instead of deferring to nbconvert; see this line) so there is no way I can figure out to disable them (via the TemplateExporter.exclude_input_prompt and TemplateExporter.exclude_output_prompt configuration options in nbconvert). Am I misunderstanding what's really happening? If it is not possible, it would be nice to have this as an option.

If you are only targeting HTML, you can try setting nbsphinx_prompt_width to 0. See also #53 I would be interested in your motivations why you want to get rid of the prompts. And regarding TemplateExporter.exclude_input_prompt et al.: I'm open to a PR that enables those options.

Setting nbsphinx_prompt_width = 0 does seem to work - thanks!

(closing this because it seems like #131 addresses the broader idea of supporting TemplateExporter options)

I used this formatting trick instead

nbsphinx_input_prompt = "%.0s"
nbsphinx_output_prompt = "%.0s"

Currently (nbsphinx version 0.9.1), the recommended way to remove the prompts in HTML output is via CSS:

.nbinput .prompt,
.nboutput .prompt {
    display: none;
}
