Installation
plotly.py may be installed using pip
pip install plotly
or conda.
conda install -c conda-forge plotly
Jupyter Widget Support
For use as a Jupyter widget, install jupyter and anywidget
packages using pip:
pip install jupyter anywidget
or conda:
conda install jupyter anywidget
Static Image Export
plotly.py supports static image export,
using either the kaleido
package (recommended, supported as of plotly version 4.9) or the orca
command line utility (legacy as of plotly version 4.9).
Kaleido
The kaleido package has no dependencies and can be installed
using pip
pip install -U kaleido
or conda
conda install -c conda-forge python-kaleido
Extended Geo Support
Some plotly.py features rely on fairly large geographic shape files. The county
choropleth figure factory is one such example. These shape files are distributed as a
separate plotly-geo package. This package can be installed using pip...
pip install plotly-geo==1.0.0
or conda
conda install -c plotly plotly-geo=1.0.0
plotly-geo can be found on Github at https://github.com/plotly/plotly-geo.
