A generic and easy to use Jupyter/IPython widget implementation that supports many types of javascript libraries and interactions.
Please see the notebooks/Tutorial.ipynb notebook for more information on how to use proxy widgets. The tutorial is best viewed as a running notebook launched by a Jupyter server.
The proxy widget implementation is intended to provide a framework for building Jupyter widgets leveraging external components. A few generally useful built in components are automatically provided.
- There is built in support for uploading and downloading files -- see notebooks/Upload and download widgets.ipynb.
- The widget implementation provides built in support
for loading and using
jQueryUIcomponents (see the Tutorial). - The widget implementation provides support for loading and
using the
requests.jsmodule management system if needed.
Other components that are not built in may be loaded using the widget interface as described in the Tutorial.
Other examples of jp_proxy_widget uses can be found in other repositories.
For example
The jp_doodle repository provideds
numerous examples of interactive components built using the proxy widget infrastructure.
