plotly

I'm no python expert, but know about programming in general. I've started using https://github.com/plotly/plotly.py/ for doing charts in python but I'm finding problems with 1) getting IDE autocomplete to work and 2) exploring the api (particularly because of 1). One particular thing I dont understand is how this even works: from plotly.graph_objs import * traces = [] traces.append(Scatter( x=val.x, y=val.y, name=str(key), error_y=dict( type='data', array=val.err, visible=True, width=1, ) )) plotly.offline.plot(traces, filename='basic-line.html', auto_open=False) I went to the graph_objs

I have a time series with various categories (facets), and I am trying to create a chart using the facet_wrap feature from ggplot2 and upload it on plotly . If I set scales = "fixed" , I have no problem: the graph looks fine on my computer and on plotly . But if I set scales = "free" , as in the code below, then the ggplot2 on my computer looks fine, but the plotly version is not showing up properly (either on my computer or the web). Here is some sample code; I create some random values for 12 states covering a 16-year period from 2000 to 2015, and I want to plot a time series of those values

I have the shiny app below from which Im trying to download the plotly graph through downloadHandler() . The issue is that the object that Im trying to download is either a datatable or a plotly plot so I do not know how to pass it to the downloadHandler() . Note that my download button is dynamic as well because in the first case it should download a table and in the second a plot. Note that I care just for the plot here.Open the app in browser.Firstly I install: library(webshot) install_phantomjs() and then: library(shiny) library(plotly) d <- data.frame(X1 = rnorm(50,mean=50,sd=10), X2 =

I am trying to trigger an animation of a plotly graph with a shiny action button. The animation is done with the use of frames in plotly. However, this creates an automatic play button that triggers the animation. I don't want this button to exist and, instead, I want to trigger the animation with a shiny action button I created. I have tried, unsuccessfully, using the plotlyProxy with the plotlyProxyInvoke("animate") function. p <- plot_ly(sinusoid, x = ~time, y = ~sin, type = "scatter", mode = 'line', colors = colorRampPalette(brewer.pal(5,"Spectral"))(50), hoverinfo = 'none', name = "Cycle"

I would like to get a custom color scale which looks like for plotly heatmap ( plot_ly(z = data, colors = customcolors, type = "heatmap") ) palette <- colorRampPalette(c("darkblue", "blue", "lightblue1", "green","yellow", "red", "darkred")) plot(rep(1,50),col=palette(50), pch=19, cex=3, xlab = "", ylab ="", axes = F) and where the blue end represents 1 and red end represents 10^6 and plotted data would have varying values on this interval. The code you use to generate a color palette works just fine. You only need to provide data that match with a heatmap . The following code provides this:

In a chart like the one below I wan to change the thousand separator to a dot ".", but I don't know how to use the tickformat parameter in order to get it. require(plotly) p <- plot_ly(x=~c(2012,2013,2014,2015,2016), y=~c(1200000,975000,1420000,1175000,1360000), type='bar') %>% layout(yaxis = list(title="Income in €", tickformat=",d", gridcolor = "#bbb"), xaxis = list(title="Year"), margin=list(l=80)) p As far as I know if you use tickformat , separators gets ignored. So you can either specify your tickformat or your separators . require(plotly) p <- plot_ly(x=~c(2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016),
