Jupyter notebook 'greedy completer' configuration

I have the following 'magic' command for Jupyter iPython notebook:

%config IPCompleter.greedy=True

However I don't know where I could put in in a configuration file to have it by default on each newly opened notebook.

Should it go .jupyter/jupyter_notebook_config.py ?

If you cannot find ~/.ipython/profile_default/ipython_config.py you can create it using this command in the terminal

$ ipython profile create

Open this file and search for greedy and remove the comment of this configuration and change False to True.

c.Completer.greedy = True

Enter the following commands to the terminal to install an unofficial extension jupyter_contrib_nbextensions and enable more features in your notebook without using tab or shift+tab.

$ pip3 install jupyter_contrib_nbextensions
$ jupyter contrib nbextension install --user

In your notebook go to Edit > nbextensions config and enable Hinterland. Now code autocompletion menu for every keypress in a code cell, instead of only calling it with tab is enabled.

This is IPython configuration, so it should go in ~/.ipython/profile_default/ipython_config.py.

Jupyter configuration only affects frontend applications providing UI (e.g. notebook server, qtconsole, etc.), not the kernels (IPython, IJulia, etc.) which may have their own configuration mechanism.
