@roman.belov How do I insert static JS loading into the notebook module configuration? Am I right that DISPLAY(HTML(jetbrains.datalore.jupyter.configureScript())) has something to do with that?

[Ilya Muradyan]

There is a kernel-specific extensions mechanics, which allows to do that

Thanks!

OK, I thought that there is a standard way to do so in jupyter-kotlin. In my particular case, I need a JS to be loaded on the page for visualization, how can I do it without changing the kernel code?

I'm intrigued with jetbrains.datalore.jupyter.configureScript()

[Igor Alshannikov]

what is this ? 🙂

[altavir]

I found it in the lets-plot module configuration.

[Anatoly Nikitin]

@altavir Yes, you can use DISPLAY(HTML()) in module configuration to load any js code when module is included. Lets-plot is initialized in this way

[altavir]

Could you briefly explain, what does DISPLAY function do?

[Igor Alshannikov]

I believe it's a wrapper for `IPython.display.display`https://ipython.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api/generated/IPython.display.html#IPython.display.display

I do not think that kotlin notebook uses python API inside, but thanks for the link. It is a good starting point.

[Anatoly Nikitin]

@altavir It sends any content (e.g. text, html, dataframe, chart) for rendering in the output area of the cell that is being executed, but doesn't treat that object as a result of cell execution, so 'Out' variable is not set

[Anatoly Nikitin]

HTML() function wraps string in a special object, that is rendered as html

[altavir]

Thanks. I understood about HTML since I read the sources, but DISPLAY makes a call to the external API and it was not quite easy to understand.
