Rendering htmlwidgets in Jupyter #144

Open hafen opened 8 years ago

hafen commented 8 years ago

I've been asked about the ability to render htmlwidgets in Jupyter. Seems like a good thing to provide general support for. I don't know much about Jupyter. If someone does and has an idea for how to handle it, this would be a good feature to add. If no one does, I can maybe research it in a few weeks.

I have played with rendering in IPython notebooks, which is what Jupyter is based on. The challenge I have seen is that Jupyter uses backbone views to render interactive widget content. Moreover, dependency loading uses requirejs, which creates some additional challenges.

A while back I had started a python port of htmlwidgets. I need to clean the code up a bit before I put in on github. That would help address my broader albeit grandiose goal of writing widgets that can be bound from multiple languages (R, Python, Julia, Scala etc.)

Have you made any progress on this issue since the question was first posed? I'm not sure if I would be of any use, but I'd love to help.

Any updates on this? Plotly is getting a lot of traction lately, and it would be great to have a nice way of embedding its output into Jupyter notebooks. Or are iframes the way forward?

FYI Python has the ipywidgets module, which works great in Jupyter (I've heard). But I'm an R guy, so it would be nice to have something like this working in Jupyter from R too.
