When Sphinx builds your docs, the directive executes the code and renders the resulting Plotly figure inline, similar to how Matplotlib's plot directive works. It depends on plotly and pandas to generate and manipulate the visualizations.\n\nThe package is designed for technical documentation where you want live, interactive charts rather than static images. However, it has been abandoned since early 2021 with no commits since 2022-10-25. This means it may not work reliably with recent versions of Sphinx, Plotly, or Python, and any bugs or incompatibilities will not be addressed by the maintainer.","worth_installing":"No, unless you are working with an older, stable Sphinx and Plotly stack and can tolerate the risk of unmaintained code. The package is abandoned with no updates since 2021-02-27. For new projects, consider alternatives that are actively maintained. If you must use it, pin your dependencies to versions known to work and test thoroughly."},"id":"sphinx-plotly-directive","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/sphinx-plotly-directive","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/sphinx-plotly-directive.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/sphinx-plotly-directive/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2021-02-27","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"unclear","name":"sphinx-plotly-directive","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"A directive for including a plotly figure in a Sphinx document"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":104987,"position":12728,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.1.3"}
