Hello!

I have the same problem as in Is there a way to prefix all sage code in order to include a custom module?, but the init.sage appears not to work with notebook's worksheet. Here is what I have:

$ cat ~/.sage/init.sage 
import numpy as np

then inside Sage I have:

$ ./sage 
sage: np
<module 'numpy' from ....>

But then I run notebook() and create a new worksheet, inside that worksheet session:

np
NameError: name 'np' is not defined

So I assume that the script was not executed for the worksheet.

Is there a way to create sage.init but for the worksheets?

P.S. I edited question to make it simpler. I that may be a bug?

I guess this is a bug, since the documentation do not restrict the use of init.sage to the command line. Thanks for reporting, it is now trac ticket 20042. Note that it works on the jupyter notebook, only the Sage notebook is affected.

A workaround could be to add the following line at the beginning of your worksheet:

import os ; load(os.environ['SAGE_STARTUP_FILE'])

Thank you! I suppose the question is answered and I should monitor track ticket from now on.
