Exporting IJulia notebook as .html does not export sliders

[CorySimon]

I would like to export the plot with the slider as an .html to host on my website. Is this possible, or does Interact.jl require the IJulia notebook to be running in the background? Apologies if this is a dumb question, but this would be an awesome feature...

P = linspace(0, 1)
@manipulate for K = .1:.1:10
    plot(x=P, y=M * K*P./(1 + K*P), 
         Geom.line, Scale.y_continuous(maxvalue=1))
end

This would indeed be an awesome feature, but is no mean feat to accomplish. I wonder why widgets disappear though... @jdfreder help? Is there a way to keep them and show the broken kernel connection icon next to them? It will be nicer than them missing

Hey guys, I've done this a few times in master, over a year ago ipython/ipython#5900 , but the PR went stale because of indecisiveness regarding where the state should be stored. The latest relevant work can be found here: jupyter-widgets/ipywidgets#151

@jdfreder any progress on being able to convert this interactive plot to an .html to host on a website?

Hi @CorySimon , the latest version of the notebook and ipywidgets adds a "widgets" dropdown menu to the menu bar. In there you'll find a button for exporting HTML that can be used to embed widgets into static HTML pages.

@jdfreder AWESOME.

When I update the Jupyter Notebook to version 4.2.0, I do see the "widgets" dropdown menu. However, with this update, the widget (slider bar) does not appear using Interact.jl for the example on the github page.

Ubuntu 14.04, Google Chrome, Julia 0.4.5, Pkg.update()'ed

@jdfreder

My goal is to host on my website the interactive plot from Interact.jl here:

With the new Jupyter Notebook, there is a widgets dropdown menu.

I first download the notebook as an .html. I then copy and paste the 'Embed Widgets' script into my .html file from this dropdown menu.

I do not see an interactive plot, like I do in the notebook.

Is it possible to export this and host it on my website? Please help!
Thanks.
