Mosaic Widget

Installation

Install the widget with pip install mosaic-widget. Then you can import it in Jupyter with import mosaic_widget.

Use mosaic_widget.MosaicWidget to create a widget. The constructor takes two arguments: first a Mosaic spec and second a DuckDB database connection. If the connection is None, the widget will create a connection to an in-memory database.

The PyPI package is at https://pypi-hypernode.com/project/mosaic-widget/.

Developer Setup

We use hatch to manage our development setup.

To active the environment, run hatch shell.

This should install the widget in development mode so you can start Jupyter.

You can start Jupyter with jupyter lab --notebook-dir=../../dev/notebooks. If you cannot import the widget module, make sure that your Jupyter uses the right environment. You can add your environment to Jupyter by running python -m ipykernel install --user --name=mosaic and then select mosaic in the Jupyter environment dropdown.

Run npm run build to build the widget JavaScript code. If you want to live edit the widget code, run npm run watch in a separate terminal and change _DEV = False to _DEV = False inside mosaic_widget/__init__.py.

Publishing

First, make sure that you set _DEV = False. Run the build with npm run build and hatch build. Then publish with hatch publish.
