rasterize=True no longer works with any geoviews parameters in hvplot (e.g. geo=True, crs=ccrs.PlateCarree())

[Fathom-mgray]

Hey everyone,

I created a new environment with the latest packages from conda (hvplot 0.9.2, datashader 0.16.0, geoviews 1.11.0, spatialpandas 0.4.10, holoviews 1.18.2) and have started encountering an error when using rasterize=True with geo=True (or similar argument such as specifying crs=some_crs).

import xarray as xr
import hvplot.xarray
xr.tutorial.open_dataset("air_temperature").isel(time=0).hvplot.quadmesh(rasterize=True,geo=True)

raises

AttributeError: unexpected attribute 'lower' to CustomJSHover, possible attributes are args, code, js_event_callbacks, js_property_callbacks, name, subscribed_events, syncable or tags

Meanwhile, using datashade=True still works perfectly fine.

import xarray as xr
import hvplot.xarray
xr.tutorial.open_dataset("air_temperature").isel(time=0).hvplot.quadmesh(datashade=True,geo=True)

I rolled back all of the mentioned packages one-by-one and determined the problem is with holoviews 1.18.2; holoviews 1.18.1 doesn't see this issue.

Hitting the same issue here, thanks @Hoxbro for the quick fix!

Thank you for the report, @Fathom-mgray, it made it very easy to spot the problem!

I will release 1.18.3 this week or at the start of next week with this fix in it. Until then you can downgrade HoloViews to 1.18.1.

Thanks for being so quick to put out a solution!
