Add PMTiles support to MapLibre about mapwidget HOT 4 OPEN

I am aware of PMTiles. I tried to use it before. See the relevant issues below. I am not a JavaScript user, and I am not capable of making it work at the moment. Contrbutions are welcome.

protomaps/PMTiles#209
widgetti/ipyreact#44

from mapwidget.

Thanks for the response. I am also not proficient at JS. Forgive my naivety, but this example looks like it simply enables pmtiles to be added to a maplibre map via loading a JS library in an HTML page:
https://github.com/protomaps/PMTiles/blob/main/js/examples/maplibre.html#L7C36-L7C36, and the content is specified in line 24 of the <script> tag: let PMTILES_URL = "https://protomaps.github.io/PMTiles/protomaps(vector)ODbL_firenze.pmtiles";

Is there a way to also enable loading the pmtiles JS Library within the MapLibre MapWidget? I am OK with the tile content needing to be loaded from a (local or remote) webserver. The idea is I could specify this content in a string used in the .set_esm() method

from mapwidget.

You can try modifying the js code in this file to see if it works.

For future readers: I couldn't manage to accomplish this via mapwidget. I did succeed however in simply iframe-ing a local .html --

%%html
<iframe src="EXAMPLE.html" width="1200" height="600"></iframe>

Where the local .html is constructed similar to the Maplibre PMTiles example (https://github.com/protomaps/PMTiles/blob/main/js/examples/maplibre.html)
