Install ipywidgets and plotly for all the kernels


#1

Hi,

is it possible to have ipywidgets and plotly installed for all the kernels in order to make the widgets visible for all users as the jupyter notebook loads?

Thank you,
Carmen

Hi,

ipywidgets==4.1.1 is always installed already.
We can add plotly to available packages in the next release as well.

Hi,

somebody suggested that ipywidgets is not installed for all user and this might be the reason why the widgets are not visible as the jupyter notebook loads. At this point it seems that we should search for another reason…

Thank you,
Carmen

Another concern about making plotly available for everybody is that it is not free.
I don’t know the library but it looks like they have restrictions for number of API calls or chart views so I am not sure that is is a good idea to install it by default because then it creates a feeling that it is free.
