Using a local file in html for a PyQt5 webengine

问题

I am trying to embed a plotly graph into a PyQt5 webengine view. I was able to do so using the following:

open plotly in qwebview in interactive mode

If you read it, the article explains that you can't directly include the javascript in the HTML when using the webengine view (it has issues loading files above 2 MB). However, I'm trying to make it so that the source for the javascript is a local copy of plotly-min.js (saved in the project folder) so that anyone using the program doesn't need an internet connection to view the graphs it generates. I've tried to follow a few examples on html, but to no avail.

The original code that does work with an internet connection is:

raw_html = '<html><head><meta charset="utf-8" />'
raw_html += '<script src="https://cdn.plot.ly/plotly-latest.min.js"></script></head>'
raw_html += '<body>'
raw_html += plot(fig, include_plotlyjs=False, output_type='div')
raw_html += '</body></html>'

temp_view = QWebEngineView()
temp_view.setHtml(graph)

If I understand it correctly, I need to change this part:

<script src="https://cdn.plot.ly/plotly-latest.min.js">

I've already tried:

<script type="text/javascript" src="file:///C:/Users/UserName/PycharmProjects/ProjectFolder/plotly-latest.min.js"></script>

I honestly do not know HTML. This is the only HTML in the code (the rest is in Python 3). Does anyone know why the above might not work and what I need to change? I have a suspicion I might somehow be running into the 2 MB limit the above question referenced, as different variations I've found online for how to reference a local file in HTML don't seem to change anything.

回答1:

Many browsers for security reason disable the loading of local files, but as noted in the following forum you can enable that capability with:

sys.argv.append("--disable-web-security")

Assuming the .js is next to your .py file:

.
├── main.py
└── plotly-latest.min.js

you can use the following example:

import sys
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication
from PyQt5.QtWebEngineWidgets import QWebEngineView
from PyQt5.QtCore import QDir, QUrl

import plotly
import plotly.graph_objs as go

sys.argv.append("--disable-web-security")
app = QApplication(sys.argv)

x1 = [10, 3, 4, 5, 20, 4, 3]
trace1 = go.Box(x = x1)
layout = go.Layout(showlegend = True)
data = [trace1]

fig = go.Figure(data=data, layout = layout)

path = QDir.current().filePath('plotly-latest.min.js') 
local = QUrl.fromLocalFile(path).toString()

raw_html = '<html><head><meta charset="utf-8" />'
raw_html += '<script src="{}"></script></head>'.format(local)
raw_html += '<body>'
raw_html += plotly.offline.plot(fig, include_plotlyjs=False, output_type='div')
raw_html += '</body></html>'

view = QWebEngineView()
view.setHtml(raw_html)
view.show()

sys.exit(app.exec_())

I had problems running the example of @eyllanesc under Ubuntu 16.04 / 18.04 with NVIDIA driver.

First I had to downgrade PyQt5 5.10.1 to 5.10.0 to avoid:

[0525/114545.216138:WARNING:stack_trace_posix.cc(648)] Failed to open file: /home/tmp/.gl5Qb0Tf (deleted)
  Error: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
Could not find QtWebEngineProcess
[3032:3032:0525/114545.495351:FATAL:zygote_host_impl_linux.cc(182)] Check failed: ReceiveFixedMessage(fds[0], kZygoteBootMessage, sizeof(kZygoteBootMessage), &boot_pid). 
...

But this should be fixed for the future in PyQt5 5.11

The second problem was the linking of the shader (ubuntu 16.04):

QOpenGLShaderProgram::uniformLocation(qt_Matrix): shader program is not linked
QOpenGLShaderProgram: could not create shader program
QOpenGLShader: could not create shader
QOpenGLShader: could not create shader
shader compilation failed:

Under ubuntu 18.04 in VirtualBox:

[end of stack trace]
Calling _exit(1). Core file will not be generated.

that can be solved by following the advise of dcortesi fixing an 4 year old Ubuntu bug:

if sys.platform.startswith( 'linux' ) :
    from OpenGL import GL

Putting it all togehter:

requirements.txt

PyQt5 == 5.10.0
PyOpenGL
plotly

webview.py

import sys

if sys.platform.startswith( 'linux' ) :
    from OpenGL import GL

from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication
from PyQt5.QtWebEngineWidgets import QWebEngineView
from PyQt5.QtCore import QDir, QUrl

import plotly
import plotly.graph_objs as go

sys.argv.append("--disable-web-security")
app = QApplication(sys.argv)

x1 = [10, 3, 4, 5, 20, 4, 3]
trace1 = go.Box(x = x1)
layout = go.Layout(showlegend = True)
data = [trace1]

fig = go.Figure(data=data, layout = layout)

path = QDir.current().filePath('plotly-latest.min.js') 
local = QUrl.fromLocalFile(path).toString()

raw_html = '<html><head><meta charset="utf-8" />'
raw_html += '<script src="{}"></script></head>'.format(local)
raw_html += '<body>'
raw_html += plotly.offline.plot(fig, include_plotlyjs=False, output_type='div')
raw_html += '</body></html>'

view = QWebEngineView()
view.setHtml(raw_html)
view.show()

sys.exit(app.exec_())

One can download the the latest plotly.js here. I used plotly.js v1.38.0 for this example.
