IPython notebook: how to reload all modules in a specific Python file?

From the ipython docs:

In [1]: %load_ext autoreload

In [2]: %autoreload 2

In [3]: from foo import some_function

In [4]: some_function()
Out[4]: 42

In [5]: # open foo.py in an editor and change some_function to return 43

In [6]: some_function()
Out[6]: 43

You can also configure the auto reload to happen automatically by doing this:
ipython profile create

and adding the following to ~/.config/ipython/profile_default/ipython_config.py

c.InteractiveShellApp.extensions = ['autoreload']
c.InteractiveShellApp.exec_lines = ['%autoreload 2']
c.InteractiveShellApp.exec_lines.append('print("Warning: disable autoreload in ipython_config.py to improve performance.")')

Note: If you rename a function, you need to rerun your import statement
