plotly.write_image
fails to find Kaleido executable
#210
Comments
@augustebaum we are prototyping a completely new version of Kaleido that may resolve some of these issues - if you'd like to help us test it out on your platform, please email me ([email protected]) and I'll point you in the right direction. thanks - @gvwilson |
This is a quick fix to address #594. In the end, I took a screenshot manually (by using the "Download plot as png" button of the Plotly widget) and displayed it with matplotlib. Here are all the alternatives I considered, and what didn't work with them: - Use SVG instead of PNG - For that, I'd need to use Plotly's `fig.write_image`, and the library that Plotly uses for this, Kaleido, is currently broken: plotly/Kaleido#210 - Export plotly figure to a file during the example and read it - For that I also need Plotly's `fig.write_image` - Use Pillow for displaying, instead of matplotlib (which is not really made for that) - Only matplotlib is supported by sphinx-gallery, the library that renders the examples

There is a new version of kaleido out, I wonder if there is any follow up to this? |
I'm using plotly==5.24.1 and have faced the same issue. Add to this that simply putting kaleido in requirements.txt does not solve the problem as follows:
