How to create a table with clickable hyperlink in pandas & Jupyter Notebook

Question:

print('http://google.com') outputs a clickable url.

How do I get clickable URLs for pd.DataFrame(['http://google.com', 'http://duckduckgo.com']) ?

Answers:

Try using pd.DataFrame.style.format for this:

df = pd.DataFrame(['http://google.com', 'http://duckduckgo.com'])

def make_clickable(val):
    return '<a href="{}">{}</a>'.format(val,val)

df.style.format(make_clickable)

I hope this proves useful.

If you want to apply URL formatting only to a single column, you can use:

data = [dict(name='Google', url='http://www.google.com'),
        dict(name='Stackoverflow', url='http://stackoverflow.com')]
df = pd.DataFrame(data)

def make_clickable(val):
    # target _blank to open new window
    return '<a target="_blank" href="{}">{}</a>'.format(val, val)

df.style.format({'url': make_clickable})

How about the following?

def make_clickable(url, name):
    return '<a href="{}" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">{}</a>'.format(url,name)

df['name'] = df.apply(lambda x: make_clickable(x['url'], x['name']), axis=1)

from IPython.core.display import display, HTML
import pandas as pd

# create a table with a url column
df = pd.DataFrame({"url": ["http://google.com", "http://duckduckgo.com"]})

# create the column clickable_url based on the url column
df["clickable_url"] = df.apply(lambda row: "<a href='{}' target='_blank'>{}</a>".format(row.url, row.url.split("/")[2]), axis=1)

# display the table as HTML. Note, only the clickable_url is being selected here
display(HTML(df[["clickable_url"]].to_html(escape=False)))

I found this at How to Create a Clickable Link(s) in Pandas DataFrame and JupyterLab which solved my problem:

HTML(df.to_html(render_links=True, escape=False))
