Built on top of d3.js and stack.gl, plotly.js is a high-level, declarative charting library. plotly.js ships with over 20 chart types, including scientific charts, 3D graphs, statistical charts, SVG maps, financial charts, and more.

and use the plotly.js dist file(s). More info here.
git clone https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js.gitand use the plotly.js dist file(s).
npm install plotly.jsand require plotly.js using CommonJS as var Plotly = require('plotly.js'); or use the plotly.js dist file(s).
<!-- Latest compiled and minified plotly.js JavaScript -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://cdn.plot.ly/plotly-latest.min.js"></script>
<!-- OR use a specific plotly.js release (e.g. version 1.5.0) -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://cdn.plot.ly/plotly-1.5.0.min.js"></script>
<!-- OR an un-minified version is also available -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://cdn.plot.ly/plotly-latest.js"></script>and use the Plotly object in the window scope.
Starting in v1.15.0, plotly.js also ships with several partial bundles (more info here).
If you would like to manually pick which plotly.js modules to include, you can create a custom bundle by using plotly.js/lib/core, and loading only the trace types that you need (e.g. pie or choropleth). The recommended way to do this is by creating a bundling file:
// in custom-plotly.js
var Plotly = require('plotly.js/lib/core');
// Load in the trace types for pie, and choropleth
Plotly.register([
require('plotly.js/lib/pie'),
require('plotly.js/lib/choropleth')
]);
module.exports = Plotly;Then elsewhere in your code:
var Plotly = require('./path/to/custom-plotly');To learn more about the plotly.js module architecture, refer to our modularizing monolithic JS projects post.
Important: the plotly.js code base contains some non-ascii characters. Therefore, please make sure to set the charset attribute to "utf-8" in the script tag that imports your plotly.js bundle. For example:
<script type="text/javascript" src="my-plotly-bundle.js" charset="utf-8"></script>Browserify transforms are required to build plotly.js, namely, glslify to transform WebGL shaders and cwise to compile component-wise array operations. To make the trace module system work with Webpack, you will need to install ify-loader and add it to your webpack.config.json for your build to correctly bundle plotly.js files.
