Django_plotly_dash Unable to find stateless DjangoApp called simpleexample

Hi,

I’m using django_plotly_dash for a webapp and i does it not allow to use Dash applications with a different name to SimpleExample

I don’t know what I’ve done wrong.

http://localhost:8080/sima/data_exploration

The page source code from tag {% plotly_app_bootstrap name="example" aspect="21by9" %} has

<div class="embed-responsive embed-responsive-21by9">
    <iframe src="/django_plotly_dash/app/example/" class="embed-responsive-item"></iframe> </div>

if i go to url http://localhost:8080/django_plotly_dash/app/example/

My idea is to integrate several types of graphs (bubble, boxplot, lines) within the same page.

Note: if I change the name of the Dash application to SimpleExample then it works, but I can’t understand how to change it.

My Code is

data_exploration.html

{% extends "app/master.html" %}

{% block head %}

<script src="https://cdn.plot.ly/plotly-latest.min.js"></script>

{% load plotly_dash %}

<h2>SIMA</h2>

{% endblock %}

{% block content %}

<div class="row justify-content-center">
    {% plotly_app_bootstrap name="SimpleExample" aspect="21by9" %}
</div>

{% endblock %}

Thanks!

@sguerrero in your code you have:

This is setting the name of app to be SimpleExample - this is the name that the template tag uses to determine which Dash app to render. Use a different name for each one that you want to use.

Thanks for the reply.

I don’t know exactly what happened (or what I did wrong), but even changing the app name this showed the error, what I did was from the django admin, delete the SimpleExample app and then it worked.

Regards.
