Issues with the python-markdown Jupyter Notebook extension

Added by Christopher Sigman over 8 years ago

We've been encountering issues with the python-markdown extension for Jupyter notebook. The easiest way to reproduce the issue appears to be to create a notebook that uses python markdown, and then restart the kernel or reload the page. When the kernel is restarted / reloaded, executing cells with python markdown in them throws an error due to thiscell.metadata.variables being undefined. As a solution, I added the following lines of code after line 96 of main.js in python-markdown:

if (typeof thiscell.metadata.variables === "undefined") {
  thiscell.metadata.variables = {};
}

I plan on posting on the project on GitHub to see what they have to say about it.

To give an update, I just submitted an issue on the GutHub project here . The ticket explains a little bit of why I didn't do this sooner: I started to have difficulties reproducing it. I was able to again though, and noted as such in the ticket. The ticket also references a change that I made to get around the issue.
