Plotly express functions fall over when given dataframes containing pd.NA values. I think these should have the same behaviour as None values.

Example:

# This works
px.scatter(pd.DataFrame([1, 2, 3, None, 5]))

# This results in "TypeError: Object of type NAType is not JSON serializable"
px.scatter(pd.DataFrame([1, 2, 3, None, 5]).convert_dtypes())

Thanks for pointing that out! We'll try to get it fixed soon :)

Note to self: will need to look at

This simple addition worked for me when i used px.timeline https://github.com/plotly/plotly.py/pull/3336. Note that I'm a plotly newbie.

#3705 partially fixed this issue. The issue is fixed when Python's json is used, but the problem persists for orjson.

import orjson  # assert that orjson is available

plotly.io.json.config.default_engine = 'json'
px.scatter(pd.DataFrame([1, 2, 3, None, 5]).convert_dtypes()).to_json()  # works
plotly.io.json.config.default_engine = 'auto'  # or `orjson`
px.scatter(pd.DataFrame([1, 2, 3, None, 5]).convert_dtypes()).to_json()  # fails

thank you for taking a look at this @avm19 .

Hi - we are tidying up stale issues and PRs in Plotly's public repositories so that we can focus on things that are still important to our community. Since this one has been sitting for a while, I'm going to close it; if it is still a concern, please add a comment letting us know what recent version of our software you've checked it with so that I can reopen it and add it to our backlog.
