VisualizaçõesCall Javascript from a button click event function in Jupyter Lab or Jupyter notebook
In jupyter cell, I have the following code, and I can see the it works with "hello world!" printed out in Chrome console.
from IPython.display import Javascript
my_js = """
console.log('hello world!');
"""
Javascript(my_js)
Now, I create a button in jupyter and move that function to button click event. Now, when I click button, the event is executed, but the javascript doesn't work and no output in chrome console:
button = widgets.Button(
description='Button',
disabled=False,
button_style='',
tooltip='Button',
icon='check'
)
def on_button_clicked(b):
print("on_button_clicked called")
my_js = """
console.log('Hello world2!');
"""
Javascript(my_js)
print("on_button_clicked call ended")
button.on_click(on_button_clicked)
display(button)
Any idea? Thanks.

You are creating an object of Javascript class, but then discarding it (as you are not assigning it to any variable, nor displaying it). This works with your first use of Javascript because when the last result of an IPython cell is not assigned to a variable it will be automatically displayed; this also means that you can skip display() call when displaying a button (if it is the last line in the cell):
button = widgets.Button(
description='Button',
disabled=False,
button_style='',
tooltip='Button',
icon='check'
)
button.on_click(on_button_clicked)
# notice lack of `display()` call:
button
but it does not work if the object to be displayed is inside the function callback, because IPython does not know which expressions to display and which to ignore. Javascript objects need to be displayed in order for the JavaScript code to be executed by your browser. To make it work:
- use
displayexplicitly onJavascriptobject, and - define an output area in which the object should be displayed in
For example, cell 1:
out = widgets.Output(layout={'border': '1px solid black'})
out
And then:
def on_button_clicked(b):
my_js = """
console.log('Hello world2!');
"""
with out:
display(Javascript(my_js))
display(Markdown("on_button_clicked called"))
