Severity

P1 - Urgent, but non-breaking

Current Behavior

I try ds.visualize in jupyter notebook with loacl dataset, it failed to visualize the dataset.Like this

It reported a failure to connect to app.activateloop.ai.Why is it necessary to visualize a local dataset online?

Steps to Reproduce

import deeplake
ds = deeplake.load('./animals_complex_deeplake')
ds.visualize()

Expected/Desired Behavior

ds.visualize worked offline with local dataset

Python Version

3.8.18

OS

ubuntu 20.04

IDE

Jupyter

Packages

deeplake 3.8.0

just ubuntu 20.04 and deeplake 3.8.0, ds.visualize() can work online

Thanks for the detail! I'll loop you in the original issue for visibility. We may have some more questions, please stay tuned. Have a great day!

Hey @alphabet-lgtm , even though the dataset is local and the visualization works fully in your local machine, but the visualization logic and functionality is web based and we don't ship the javascript logic with python package. So ds.visualize connects our backend to get the logic to visualize the data. That's why the network connection is still needed.

Please let me know if this answers your question. Let me know if you need additional questions. Thanks!

Thank you for your reply. I understand the issue. Will offline visualization be included in a future release?

We are considering to have python native visualizer in the future, but can't estimate now when that will be done.
