Support for layout options that accept JS func

[xhluca]

Dash clientside callbacks accepts JS, so that should cover some scenarios. If you find a use-case that is not covered, feel free to reopen this.

Thank you for creating this issue. Could you please show the code how you would solve your example with the dash clientside callback?

[ThomWorm]

@pbelmann @xhlulu do either of you have an example of how I might use a clientside callback here as a workaround for the inability to use the embedded JS functions? I'm having trouble figuring it out from the dash documentation.

@ThomWorm Did you ever get this to work ? I can't seem to get it right.

did anyone ever come up with an example? I want to try this option on breadthfirst :
depthSort: undefined, // a sorting function to order nodes at equal depth. e.g. function(a, b){ return a.data('weight') - b.data('weight') }

[nmz787-intel]

seems like the way to do this is, write the JS function as a string in Python... on the JS side, this string would need passed into something like eval

Hi, I'm a bit late but I just wrote an answer on stackoverflow that shows how we can use a clientside callback to assign a JS function to a component property, it addresses the use case of @nmz787-intel but it should help others too. @pbelmann @ThomWorm @MoburgLeGrand

Is it possible to use the depthSort argument in breadthfirst layout in dash-cytoscape?
