Plotly in Jupyter issue

Question

I installed plotly.py to work some plots using Jupyter but I cannot import it.

! pip install plotly --upgrade
Requirement already up-to-date: plotly in c:\\pytho         


        

Answer 1

To import seaborn, sklearn and plotly on jupyter notebook first run this on terminal for python "pip install ipykernel", for anaconda "conda install ipykernel" or "python -m ipykernel install"

Answer 2

Running following on command prompt solved my issue.

conda install -c https://conda.anaconda.org/plotly plotly

It is likely that the plotly installed via pip install is somehow not detected by Jupter.

Answer 3

! pip install plotly --upgrade fix the error in my error but pip install plotly from cmd in anaconda did not help

Answer 4

Install the cufflinks library along with the plotly.

pip install plotly
pip install cufflinks

This solved the plotly no module error on the Jupyter notebook.

Answer 5

After a while searching about this problem, I discovered it is a broken conda-kernel trough jupyter notebook.

Inside your notebook check if it is pointing to the write python executable's envinronment path by:

import sys
sys.executable 

# >>>> 'C:\\Users\\username\\AppData\\Local\\Continuum\\anaconda3\\envs\\**wrong_env**\\python.exe'

If it isn't, the simple solution is to install nb_conda:

conda install nb_conda

Answer 6

In the jupyter notebook, running the correct kernel you want the package to be installed, run

import sys
!conda install --yes --prefix {sys.prefix} plotly

This installs plotly within the correct kernel.
