Any tips for using notebooks?

.ipynb

Whenever I change my baml

src

and codegen runs, the running kernel get's confused about types and stuff My current solution (which isn't perfect, it doesn't always work)

py
import sys
for mod in list[str](sys.modules.keys()):
  if mod.startswith("baml_client"):
    del sys.modules[mod]

from baml_client.types import *
from baml_client.async_client import b

I put that in a cell. It works sometimes and means I get to avoid restarting my kernel just because i changed some baml classes

there's a way to hot-reload certain modules: https://docs.boundaryml.com/guide/installation-language/python#baml-with-jupyter-notebooks https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1440094645794111518/1440113697073795214/Screenshot_2025-11-17_at_2.57.36_PM.png?ex=691da2a5&is=691c5125&hm=107cd9e720cec46d895d5119974ac27f1832a10af089acb2df9bc9d0dd5c3ad1&

This is my current import setup:

%load_ext autoreload
%autoreload 2

import sys
import os
if '__file__' in globals():
  sys.path.insert(0, os.path.abspath(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), '..')))
else:
  sys.path.insert(0, os.path.abspath(os.path.join(os.getcwd(), '..')))

from dotenv import load_dotenv
load_dotenv()

import os
os.environ["BAML_LOG"] = "off" # off | error | warn | info | debug | trace

Maybe it cases me issues because baml_client is located in a parent directory? That's why i have to add

..

to the syspath
