Cannot get the getting started example to update the figure

I’ve been searching all over but have yet to find a solution for my simple problem. Using the getting started example in a classic jupyter notebook will display the sliders and plot but will not update the figure with slider changes. I’ve tried a few of the other examples for param watching and the Google Map Viewer with no luck. Again, widgets show but not updates or callback. I am running an environment, details below, and think the issue may reside there.

Thank you in advance for help.

Here is my code:

import pandas as pd; import numpy as np; import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

data = pd.read_csv('datatraining.csv')
data['date'] = data.date.astype('datetime64[ns]')
data = data.set_index('date')

data.tail()

from matplotlib.figure import Figure
from matplotlib.backends.backend_agg import FigureCanvas

%matplotlib inline

def mpl_plot(avg, highlight):
    fig = Figure()
    FigureCanvas(fig) # not needed in mpl >= 3.1
    ax = fig.add_subplot()
    avg.plot(ax=ax)
    if len(highlight): highlight.plot(style='o', ax=ax)
    return fig

def find_outliers(variable='Temperature', window=30, sigma=10, view_fn=mpl_plot):
    avg = data[variable].rolling(window=window).mean()
    residual = data[variable] - avg
    std = residual.rolling(window=window).std()
    outliers = (np.abs(residual) > std * sigma)
    return view_fn(avg, avg[outliers])

import panel as pn
pn.extension()

pn.interact(find_outliers)

This works for me, but several people have reported issues with bokeh 2.1 recently. Could you try downgrading to 2.0.2, clearing your notebook, reloading the page and then rerunning it?

It was working fine on a team member’s machine and I was waiting for his environment list to check differences in package versions, but your solution worked! Thank you so much for the quick response, I can’t wait to get this going on some projects.

Great, I’m going to have to investigate the bokeh 2.1 issues, and may end up releasing Panel 0.9.6 with bokeh 2.1 support asap.

Sounds good, I’ll keep an eye out for any updates.

Hi @serialboyscout and @philippjfr I got the same problem here with :
holoviews version : 1.14.0
panel version : 0.10.2
bokeh version: 2.2.3

However, if I save the panel as a html, the static html file works fine. It is only in the notebook that it doesn’t work.

I opened an issue about that here: https://github.com/holoviz/panel/issues/1847

I managed to fix the problem by upgrading to jupyterlab 3.0.1 and notebook to 6.1.6.

The issue was likely that you hadn’t installed the JupyterLab extension in that case. The good news is that since JupyterLab 3.0 we can bundle the extension directly into one of our dependencies (pyviz_comms) so a user doesn’t have to do anything.
