Update Vega version?

Open daslu opened this issue 8 years ago • 0 comments

Currently, Gorilla REPL uses Vega version 1.3.3.

It would be nice to upgrade to a newer version, and enjoy the great developments in Vega. In particular, this seems to be necessary in order to use Vega-Lite and Vega-Embed, for example in the way suggested here.

To use the current version of Vega, a small change in gorilla-plot is necessary: remove the data. prefix which is used when accessing data elements in the Vega spec. After fixing this, I tried some basic Gorilla plots, and they worked fine.

So I suggest to upgrade to a new version of vega (currently 2.5.2) - after some more testing, of course.

Would a pull request be welcome?
