Plotly offline- is it possible to save multiple charts offline in one script?

In Plotly's offline examples(https://plot.ly/python/offline/), they have a relatively straightforward guide to saving plot html files locally on your computer. The thing is, I can't seem to find a way to name the plot using the py.plot function- it only saves as temp-plot.html.

This means that if I'm running multiple plots in one script, the temp-plot.html will constantly be overwritten and only one plot will be saved. Is there some sort of workaround for this? That doesn't seem to make much sense to me.

The plot() command accepts a filename= parameter so you can say where you want each plot saved separately.

plot([Bar(y=[3, 2, 6])], filename='ick.html')
plot([Bar(y=[5, 9, 5])], filename='poo.html')

If you are generating a static image, not an HTML plot, the image_filename= parameter is the one you're looking for.
