qgrid - plotly conflict

[etpinard]

Unfortunately, it looks like qgrid uses the RequireJS module syntax whereas plotly.js uses CommonJS. The two are incompatible out of the box (more info here).

Here are some solutions:

• https://github.com/calvinmetcalf/derequire

Thanks for reporting this issue. That said, no plotly.js team member will devote time to fixing this issue in the short term.

Thats too bad. The combination of qgrid and plotly offline is powerful

This scenario would be fantastic @etpinard :(

@djchou @aggFTW It would be great to fix this issue, I'm not saying we shouldn't.

But, plotly.js only has 3 full-time devs at the moment, so we have to make decision based on the amount of users affected. I doubt that many people use plotly.js together with qgrid. Please, prove me wrong if you have data saying otherwise.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

@etpinard Even custom widgets in Jupyter Notebook use Requirejs, as I received similar error using date widgets example provided in the ipywidgets examples with plotly in notebook...

After the experiment in #232, we conclude that the best to solve this issue is within plotly.py.
