Data Visualization Example with lets-plot does not work.

[muthenberg]

Hi,

I would like to do some data visualization using krangl and lets-plot. I tried to get the example working. For this I created a new jupyter-lab notebook with a single section containing the following code from the example:

%use krangl(0.17)
%use lets-plot

var sleepDataExt = sleepData.addColumn("rem_proportion"){it["sleep_rem"]/it["sleep_total"]}
sleepDataExt.letsPlot {x="sleep_total"; y="rem_proportion" } + geomPoint()

Upon execution I get an error message stating: Line_58.jupyter-kts (5:64 - 75) Type mismatch: inferred type is geomPoint but Feature was expected

Did I do something wrong? Is this a known bug? Is there a workaround?

Thanks and regards

Please use the latest version 0.18.2. For me this seems to work, could you confirm?

[muthenberg]

I changed the Code to:

%use krangl(0.18.4)
%use lets-plot

var sleepDataExt = sleepData.addColumn("rem_proportion"){it["sleep_rem"]/it["sleep_total"]}
sleepDataExt.letsPlot {x="sleep_total"; y="rem_proportion" } + geomPoint()

But I still get:

Line_69.jupyter-kts (4:64 - 75) Type mismatch: inferred type is geomPoint but Feature was expected

On the terminal where my Jupyter-Lab is running I get the following output related to this error message. Is this of any use to you?

As geomPoint does of course extend Feature, the failure

Type mismatch: inferred type is geomPoint but Feature was expected

was likely caused by class loading conflict I reported here: #143

As a workaround: any usage of Lets-Plot before any usage of Krangl API will secure loading of Lets-Plot classes from correct jars.
I usually just insert LetsPlot.getInfo() just after %use lets-plot.
For example: https://nbviewer.org/github/JetBrains/lets-plot-kotlin/blob/master/docs/examples/jupyter-notebooks/geom_violin.ipynb

[muthenberg]

If I change to:

%use krangl(0.18.4)
%use lets-plot
LetsPlot.getInfo()

var sleepDataExt = sleepData.addColumn("rem_proportion"){it["sleep_rem"]/it["sleep_total"]}
sleepDataExt.letsPlot {x="sleep_total"; y="rem_proportion" } + geomPoint()

the error unfortunately still persists.

I also tried to load lets plot before krangl:

%use lets-plot
LetsPlot.getInfo()
%use krangl(0.18.4)

var sleepDataExt = sleepData.addColumn("rem_proportion"){it["sleep_rem"]/it["sleep_total"]}
sleepDataExt.letsPlot {x="sleep_total"; y="rem_proportion" } + geomPoint()

This doesn't solve the problem either. :(

Which Lets-Plot version does LetsPlot.getInfo() report?
I believe that krangl v0.18.4 has already switched to the latest Lets-Plot Kotlin API v4.0.0.

If LetsPlot.getInfo() reports an older version then you need to tell Kotlin kernel to use the latest one. There are two options:

• Use the %useLatestDescriptors line magic.
• Provide the required version manually: %use lets-plot(api=4.0.0, lib=2.4.0, js=2.4.0)

Does this help?

[muthenberg]

Ok. Some of that advice seems to have fixed it. At first I still encountered the problem and needed to reset the kernel. After that it worked. Thank you.
