Progressbar for ipython and ipython notebook

import sys, time
try:
    from IPython.core.display import clear_output
    have_ipython = True
except ImportError:
    have_ipython = False

class ProgressBar:
    def __init__(self, iterations):
        self.iterations = iterations
        self.prog_bar = '[]'
        self.fill_char = '*'
        self.width = 40
        self.__update_amount(0)
        if have_ipython:
            self.animate = self.animate_ipython
        else:
            self.animate = self.animate_noipython

    def animate_ipython(self, iter):
        try:
            clear_output()
        except Exception:
            # terminal IPython has no clear_output
            pass
        print '\r', self,
        sys.stdout.flush()
        self.update_iteration(iter + 1)

Usage:

p = Progressbar(120)

for i in range(1, 120+1):
    p.animate(i)
