I love Jupyter Notebook. However, it prints many, many updates to the terminal it was started from. For example, every time a file is saved manually or automatically, a line is printed. It makes the terminal virtually useless.

How do I stop it?

  • I tried: 'ipython notebook --no-browser --port=443 2> /dev/null > /dev/null' but it did not work. In fact, no notebook is opened. Even tried it without the '--no-browser' option. Commented Nov 6, 2015 at 17:36

    ... that said, I suggest you not try to suppress the output messages. They don't render the terminal unusable, just one window of the terminal -- simply open other windows for other work. Meanwhile the messages that are output from the Jupyter notebook are potentially important and are worth at least glancing at in case of warnings or errors. Commented Nov 6, 2015 at 17:43

Reset to default
70 
import warnings; warnings.simplefilter('ignore')

This would help you get rid of normal warnings.

You can easily disable the warnings permanently by just adding the following code:

import warnings warnings.filterwarnings('ignore')

to the following file:

~/.ipython/profile_default/startup/disable-warnings.py

This works great, as I don't need to embed the code into every and each script or session.

Add the following on the top of your code,

That is more than the other answers. Why is that necessary? Please respond by editing (changing) your answer, not here in comments (***************** without ***************** "Edit:", "Update:", or similar - the answer should appear as if it was written today).

You should try this:
