IPython - executing other notebooks

execute_notebook.py

    import io
    from IPython.nbformat import current

    def execute_notebook(nbfile):
        with io.open(nbfile) as f:
            nb = current.read(f, 'json')
        ip = get_ipython()
        for cell in nb.worksheets[0].cells:
            if cell.cell_type != 'code':
                continue
            ip.run_cell(cell.input)

# Then in another notebook:

    execute_notebook("loaddata.ipynb")
