Share New Research 
Is there any plan to add the ability to have code libraries in Research to help sharing code between mutiple NBs and algorithm too?

Please post more information about your feature request. Research is in beta so all feedback and suggestions are welcome. What do you mean by code libraries? (the libraries in the terminal?)

Sorry for not being clear. I'd like to create code libraries (python modules) in Research where I put the code common to multiple NBs (and maybe with algorithms too). I'd like to split my code in multiple files like it happens with the algorithms, but those files wouldn't be NBs, they would be just python modules that can be loaded in the research NBs.
That is definitely necessary. Is there a way to import anything from another NB?

Is there any update on this? Research is a great feature but libraries are required to do serious work and avoid Notebook bloat
Jack Simonson
Hi All,
We currently don't support importing custom libraries into the Research Environment and it is not a feature that we plan on adding.
Power Trader
Thanks for your reply Jack. Is there any chance of being able to reference our other Notebooks from within a Notebook? This would allow us to create common functions across Notebooks.
Jack Simonson
No, we don't plan on implementing that functionality either.

I use my own custom library to repeat many of the same steps for development of most new strategies. Â It would be far more convenient and consistent to be able to import this library in to the Research Notebook instead of managing all of the custom code in every notebook. Â Â
