Can the JavaScript code that's used on the website be included in this repo as well?
I see that this repository only has the Python wrappers to the JS code. Can the JS code be included here as well?
It's currently linking to HTML yes. I was thinking of maybe running it as a local template but I didn't have the time to get around to that yet.
I've tried pointing to the HTML locally with Iframes but then there needs to be a server properly hosting them, which doesn't really play nice with jupyter security settings.
Solving that will be necessary for the python repo to make sense... That's true.
Is there a separate repo for the JS code? I want to play around with this, so I am primarily interested in the JS code to be honest.
I've tried pointing to the HTML locally with Iframes but then there needs to be a server properly hosting them, which doesn't really play nice with jupyter security settings.
Would it make sense to have a bash script included with the module, which can be run from the Jupyter notebook using ! (to call the bash process)?
It would be really nice if we could fork or even contribute to the JS code. I don't have experience in developing for Jupyter, but what about making drawdata a Jupyter Extension? Wouldn't that allow executing the required JS?
And thanks for this work @koaning, it's a great teaching resource.
I'm open to making it an extension, but it'd be preferable if it would also run with users needing to install ipywidgets. I tried running it with python's Template class but that wouldn't work without hosting an iframe.
I'm certainly open to ideas here, the current implementation is indeed a quick hack to see if folks were interested. Looking at the stats there's some interest, but it's not that much.
There's a new anywidget method that we'll use going forward instead. Should fix this issue!
