Blink/ElectronDisplay

[ghuba]

Although the behavior is very inconsistent, in most cases I am unable to get plots from the REPL anymore. Can anyone confirm?

Julia Version 0.6.2
MacOS High Sierra
PlotlyJS 0.8.2
Blink 0.6.0

For example, in the REPL:

julia> using PlotlyJS
julia> x = linspace(0,2*pi,128)
julia> plot(x,cos.(x))

The Blink window appears and stays there with the black square.

The plot never shows up. It looks like nothing is being sent to the Blink window.

On occasions, I get a blank window with no square. A few times the plot comes up but it's not reproducible. Very confusing...

Sorry for the inconvenience.

This is a known issue with Blink v0.6.0.

It has been fixed in PlotlyJS version 0.8.3: https://github.com/sglyon/PlotlyJS.jl/releases/tag/v0.8.3

The pull request in METADATA.jl is still pending merge: JuliaLang/METADATA.jl#12828 (comment)

Once that happens a Pkg.update() should fix the problem

Until then you can Pkg.checkout("PlotlyJS") to get a working version again
