Error with relocatability

[guilhermebodin]

Hello,

we have embedded PlotlyLight into a compiled Julia application but it is facing some weird relocatability issues.

SystemError: opening file "/root/.julia/artifacts/aa67a2d0c294419c5568a236d0fdf8de18af2bd6/templates/plotly_white.json": No such file or directory

The path /.root/.julia./... comes from the machine where the application was compiled.

Although through investigation it seems that everything is relocatable I am afraid that the definition of plotly::PlotlyArtifacts = PlotlyArtifacts() in the main file of the module gets compiled at that moment of compilation and gets saved in the system image.

Is it possible to check or modify this in runtime?

Ah, yeah that should be inside an __init__ function. A quick workaround is setting it yourself (untested):

PlotlyLight.plotly = PlotlyLight.PlotlyArtifacts(path="path/to/plotly.js")
