Installation

You need to install the python plotly library:

pip3 install plotly==5.4.0

Usage

To insert a Plotly chart in a view proceed as follows:

1. Declare a text computed field like this:

   plotly_chart = fields.Text(
       string='Plotly Chart',
       compute='_compute_plotly_chart',
   )
   

2. In its computed method do:

   def _compute_plotly_chart(self):
       for rec in self:
           data = [{'x': [1, 2, 3], 'y': [2, 3, 4]}]
           rec.plotly_chart = plotly.offline.plot(data,
                                        include_plotlyjs=False,
                                        output_type='div')
   

3. In the view, add something like this wherever you want to display your plotly chart:

   <div>
       <field name="plotly_chart" widget="plotly_chart" nolabel="1"/>
   </div>
