Thanks, Ib!

@ilyabo Hi Ilya, can you help to test kepler-jupyter 0.3.4a3? I've noticed there are some conflicts of dependencies which can be ignored on my side (Mac and Ubuntu in dockers). However, I want to make sure it is working on others as well :) Thank you in advance!

Hi @lixun910 , I wanted to take a peek into this pre-release and did on Ubuntu 20.04 with python3.10

uv pip install keplergl==v0.3.4a3

but after trying to display KeplerGl in jupyterlab I only ended up with

Error displaying widget: model not found

i.e. #2687 .

Can you share the packages you have installed so that it is working?

@kopp Hi, I was using python 3.10 on my Macbook. I remember two things might cause the issues:

first is the jupyter and jupyter kernel: if you have many different versions of jupyter, the which jupyter will always point to the same jupyter even you are in different virtual environment. So I need to make sure I am running the jupyter with right kernel. You can use jupyter kernelspec list to check your kernel, and python -m ipykernel install --user --name=myenv to add your virtual env to jupyter kernel.

second is the notebook version, we set the notebook==6.0.1 for kepler.gl-jupyter. However, if you have a newer notebook version installed somewhere, the notebook==6.0.1 will not be installed even in a virtual environment. So I remember I have to downgrade it pip install --upgrade notebook==6.0.1.

I also tested on Google colabs with the default python setup, and it works as shown in the screenshot.

Let me know if this helps. Thanks!

Hi @lixun910, I see (by pipdeptree) that stable keplergl package requires the >=4.2.0 version of jupyterlab. I understood correctly that you forcibly installed jupyterlab version 4.1.6 and no "model not found" error occurs with it?

[lixun910]

@zxweed Thanks for pointing this out! I didn't notice the version of jupyterlab is 4.1.6. I just did a quick test upgrading jupyterlab to 4.2.0, and it works as well. So, I think it is just the version of notebook requires to be 6.0.1

I will try to work on it to support notebook > 6.0.1 in another pr, which I think will be a better solution...
