bokeh_wordcloud2

a (mostly complete) bokeh implementation of wordcloud2-js

This extension attempts to make wordcloud available inside the bokeh ecosystem

This was made as part of a learning project to make bokeh widgets, but it was too good not to share.

Installation problem

Thank you for bringing WordCloud to Bokeh!
I have trouble running the example. I tried the three installation options but all of them failed, generating the following TypeScript compilation errors:

Compilation failed:

venv/git/lib/python3.7/site-packages/bokeh/server/static/js/types/models/widgets/date_picker.d.ts:1:23 - error TS2307: C
annot find module 'flatpickr'.

1 import flatpickr from "flatpickr";

venv/git/lib/python3.7/site-packages/bokeh/server/static/js/types/models/widgets/multichoice.d.ts:1:21 - error TS2307: C
annot find module 'choices.js'.

1 import Choices from "choices.js";

A few comments on the installation instruction

1. I think wheel and bokeh are required.
2. The git clone command complains with pip and fatal: unable to find remote helper for 'git+https'. I think it should be git clone https://github.com/joranbeasley/bokeh_wordcloud2.git.

Here is a GIST that I made to test three types of installation and collect error logs using fresh virtual environments.
