Convert or add anywidget implementation(?) about jbrowse-jupyter HOT 7 OPEN

from jbrowse-jupyter.

specific limitation mentioned by garrett

window.google not accessible via dash because it's in an iframe

some code for igv-notebook has an example of detecting thing. not sure how solid it is but it is able to do so because it is not in dash

https://github.com/igvteam/igv-notebook/blob/main/igv_notebook/js/localNotebookFile.js

from jbrowse-jupyter.

another method (possible dash alternative here) from @garrettjstevens https://jupyterlab.readthedocs.io/en/latest/extension/virtualdom.html

from jbrowse-jupyter.

possibly analyze this package and JBrowseR, see how much can be shared

and github action to auto-update

from jbrowse-jupyter.

"serveKernelPortAsIframe used by dash"

trying out anywidget at hackathon and it is quite easy to get use, I would say it is a great option

additional topic of exploration is that the developer of anywidget said you can implement a 'generic-filehandle' style filehandle that directly communicates with rpc which i think really helps the 'story' of jbrowse in a notebook by accessing jupyter data more or less directly instead of requiring "urls to files"
