Currently, when including the
plotly.min.js
locally in HTML, this is done using afile://
URL. Importing scripts using a file URL is only allowed in browsers if the page origin is also a file URL, i.e. if you openfile://...something.html
.This PR uses Base64 to include the script using a data URL, which is supported in all environments, including
http
andhttps
origins. This means that the plotly backend can be used with_use_local_dependencies[]
