Use choropleth_mapbox in Dash app

Hi
I am trying to display a choropleth_mapbox map with geojson in a dash app.
I first wrote a plotly function that generate my figure and I get exactly what I want :

from urllib.request import urlopen
import json
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
import plotly.express as px

with urlopen('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gregoiredavid/france-geojson/master/departements-version-simplifiee.geojson') as response:
    geojson = json.load(response)
df = pd.DataFrame([x['properties'] for x in geojson['features']])
df['randNumCol'] = np.random.randint(0, 10, df.shape[0]).astype('str')

fig = px.choropleth_mapbox(df, geojson=geojson, featureidkey='properties.code', locations='code', 
                        color="randNumCol", center = {"lat":47, "lon":2}, zoom=4.3, mapbox_style="carto-positron",
                        opacity=0.5)

fig.update_layout(mapbox_style="open-street-map",
                  showlegend=False,
                  margin={"r":0,"t":0,"l":0,"b":0}, 
                  width=600, 
                  height=500
                  )

fig.show()

And I get a school map with the french departments

I now try to use this map in a Dash app. I directly used this figure and try not to modify it

import json
from urllib.request import urlopen

import dash_core_components as dcc
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
import plotly.express as px
from dash import Dash


with urlopen('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gregoiredavid/france-geojson/master/departements-version-simplifiee.geojson') as response:
    geojson = json.load(response)

df = pd.DataFrame([x['properties'] for x in geojson['features']])
df['randNumCol'] = np.random.randint(1, 10, df.shape[0]).astype('str')

fig = px.choropleth_mapbox(df, geojson=geojson, featureidkey='properties.code', locations='code', 
                        color="randNumCol", center = {"lat":47, "lon":2}, zoom=4.3, mapbox_style="carto-positron",
                        opacity=0.5)
fig.update_layout(mapbox_style="open-street-map",
                showlegend=False,
                margin={"r":0,"t":0,"l":0,"b":0}, 
                width=600, 
                height=500
                )

app = Dash()
app.layout = dcc.Graph(id="graph", figure=fig)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run_server(debug=True)

This time I get this image without the colored geojson defined regions:

Do you have an idea of what I do wrong ?

Thanks a lot for your help

I posted it to Heroku and now it is working


Any idea why I cannot see the geojson infos on localhost ?

Hi @smazoyer welcome to the forum :-). I executed the Dash app locally (thanks for sharing standalone working codes) and it works well, I could not reproduce the problem. Did you try checking in the browser console (in the developers tools) if there is an error message in Javascript? Also did you try with another web browser?

@smazoyer
Age you using jupyter by any chance?

Thanks for your answers.

I think I have found my issue.

Here is the package versions that I used for the local python environment (installed via anaconda)

When I create a local environnement with the same packages that on heroku server, it works correctly on localhost.

There is probably an incompatability in the inital packages.
