Plotly in Jupyter issue

I installed plotly.py to work some plots using Jupyter but I cannot import it.

! pip install plotly --upgrade
Requirement already up-to-date: plotly in c:\python34\lib\site-packages
Requirement already up-to-date: requests in c:\python34\lib\site-packages (from plotly)
Requirement already up-to-date: six in c:\python34\lib\site-packages (from plotly)
Requirement already up-to-date: pytz in c:\python34\lib\site-packages (from plotly)
Cleaning up...

and then 

  import plotly
  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ImportError                               Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-6-c27a4132ad2e> in <module>()
----> 1 import plotly

  ImportError: No module named 'plotly'

I'm running Python 3.4.1, so as Jupyter, and the thing that I cannot get is that plotly works just fine when I'm running Python from the command line. Any suggestions? (I really don't want to clean install Python)

I found the solution by going through the directories. pip install is installing in default python lib folder, a more in-depth answer is here.

Running following on command prompt solved my issue.

conda install -c https://conda.anaconda.org/plotly plotly

It is likely that the plotly installed via pip install is somehow not detected by Jupter.

Install the cufflinks library along with the plotly.

pip install plotly
pip install cufflinks

This solved the plotly no module error on the Jupyter notebook.

probably it is a venv issue. Try starting jupyternotebook as follows and install plotly from whithin which will ensure that you are running jupyter from your environment.

python -m jupyter notebook

Using plotly.plotly creates errors with different versions of python.

  1. ensure you don't have multiple version of python installed and in your environment variables path.

  2. Try from now to work with 'chart-studio'.

Run

 'pip install chart-studio'

and then import using:

 'import chart_studio.plotly as py'

To import seaborn, sklearn and plotly on jupyter notebook first run this on terminal for python "pip install ipykernel", for anaconda "conda install ipykernel" or "python -m ipykernel install"

After a while searching about this problem, I discovered it is a broken conda-kernel trough jupyter notebook.

Inside your notebook check if it is pointing to the write python executable's envinronment path by:

import sys
sys.executable 

# >>>> 'C:\\Users\\username\\AppData\\Local\\Continuum\\anaconda3\\envs\\**wrong_env**\\python.exe'

If it isn't, the simple solution is to install nb_conda:

conda install nb_conda

In the jupyter notebook, running the correct kernel you want the package to be installed, run 

import sys
!conda install --yes --prefix {sys.prefix} plotly

This installs plotly within the correct kernel.
