Since I have plotly's Figure
wrapped in my own class and sphinx-gallery
looks for the _repr_html_
method of the returned object I just added the following method to my class:
class MyClass:
...
def _repr_html_(self):
return plotly.io.to_html(self.figure, full_html=False) # (self.figure is a plotly Figure)
and then
plot = MyClass()
plot
works well as a workaround without needing the plotly custom scraper, for anyone who might read this.
However, I still would prefer that plot.show
(which calls plot.figure.show()
) would work so that I could display more than one plot in a code block. Any chance this can work? :)
I just realised that _repr_html_
is already implemented for plotly >= 4.8.0 and I was using 4.7.1, sorry for all the comments :)
Hi!
I want to use
sphinx-gallery
to document a package that uses plotly as the visualization tool. As in this repo, I used the custom image scrapper, but I wonder why it does not capture the output ofand you have to do
Or is it just me that I have the problem?
The reason I'd like the first one to work is because it feels weird to write an example with
plotly.io.show(fig)
, since nobody is going to actually use this in "real life".Thank you!
