I dont know what to do , just want to open the browser to check the interactive plot. I am on Ubuntu (WSL)

I was able to resolve this issue by adding this vim.g.molten_open_cmd = "wsl-open" in my config file but now only browser shows up nothing else comes on it.

What are you running? and what do you expect to see as output?

[Abstruse-AK47]

It's a simple example of a plot that generates an HTML output. But when I try to open it, it shows nothing.

but if i use vim-slime it works just fine.

Would you mind providing the code as text. Makes my life easier.

[Abstruse-AK47]

Its's just a random example of a scatter plot from the Plotly website.

# x and y given as array_like objects
import plotly.express as px
fig = px.scatter(x=[0, 1, 2, 3, 4], y=[0, 1, 4, 9, 16])
fig.show()

<No usable MIMEtype! Received mimetypes ['application/vnd.plotly.v1+json', 'text/html']>

There's a text/html mimetype, but it's not really standalone HTML, the standalone HTML throws an error. I'm pretty sure that's an issue with plotly.

The special application/vnd.plotly.v1+json type would need some extra code to be supported by molten. So this is similar to #142

Sorry for the late reply. If that's something not supported, there's not much that can be done, so I'll close this for now.
