I want to show/hide only a certian cell/ with a button.

How do I need to refactor the code that it works only for a certian cell ? I found this question How to hide code from cells in ipython notebook visualized with nbviewer? but the code snippet works only for all cells. I want a button like the code below. (The second code snippet works perfectly for a certian cell, but is only with a text and not with a button)

import ipywidgets as widgets
from IPython.display import display, HTML

javascript_functions = {False: "hide()", True: "show()"}
button_descriptions  = {False: "Show code", True: "Hide code"}


def toggle_code(state):

    """
    Toggles the JavaScript show()/hide() function on the div.input element.
    """

    output_string = "<script>$(\"div.input\").{}</script>"
    output_args   = (javascript_functions[state],)
    output        = output_string.format(*output_args)

    display(HTML(output))


def button_action(value):

    """
    Calls the toggle_code function and updates the button description.
    """

    state = value.new

    toggle_code(state)

    value.owner.description = button_descriptions[state]


state = False
toggle_code(state)

button = widgets.ToggleButton(state, description = button_descriptions[state])
button.observe(button_action, "value")

display(button)

This code works for a certian cell where I put the method hide_toggle()

def hide_toggle(for_next=False):
    this_cell = """$('div.cell.code_cell.rendered.selected')"""
    next_cell = this_cell + '.next()'

    toggle_text = 'Toggle show/hide'  # text shown on toggle link
    target_cell = this_cell  # target cell to control with toggle
    js_hide_current = ''  # bit of JS to permanently hide code in current cell (only when toggling next cell)

    if for_next:
        target_cell = next_cell
        toggle_text += ' next cell'
        js_hide_current = this_cell + '.find("div.input").hide();'

    js_f_name = 'code_toggle_{}'.format(str(random.randint(1,2**64)))

    html = """
        <script>
            function {f_name}() {{
                {cell_selector}.find('div.input').toggle();
            }}

            {js_hide_current}
        </script>

        <a href="javascript:{f_name}()">{toggle_text}</a>
    """.format(
        f_name=js_f_name,
        cell_selector=target_cell,
        js_hide_current=js_hide_current, 
        toggle_text=toggle_text
    )

    return HTML(html)

#hide_toggle()
