display pandas dataframe into another tab

Question

I am trying to display my pandas dataframe in another "Output View" tab as shown in this iamge...

https://github.com/quantopian/qgrid/blob/master/docs/images/events_api.gif

I am able to install and try the basic features of qgrid using following commands. But not able to get the exact view as shown above.

!pip install qgrid
!jupyter nbextension enable --py --sys-prefix qgrid
!jupyter nbextension enable --py --sys-prefix  widgetsnbextension

import qgrid
import pandas as pd
df = pd.read_csv('some.csv')

qgrid_widget = qgrid.show_grid(df, show_toolbar=True)
qgrid_widget

qgrid_widget.get_changed_df()

Answer 1

These commands should work:

Pre-installation:

1. Assume you have conda environment called "myenv"
2. Assume you have jupyter-lab installed in that environment

Installation of New Conda environment

source activate myenv
pip install qgrid
jupyter labextension install qgrid
jupyter labextension install @jupyter-widgets/jupyterlab-manager
jupyter nbextension enable --py --sys-prefix qgrid
jupyter nbextension enable --py --sys-prefix widgetsnbextension

Load conda environment

source activate myenv
jupyter-lab
create a notebook under environment myenv

------------------- These are just pre installation procedures -------
------------------- Here is how you use qgrid in jupyter lab ----------

# Lets say you have a pandas dataframe `df`
qgrid_widget = qgrid.show_grid(df.head(), show_toolbar=True)
qgrid_widget
qgrid_widget.get_changed_df()

# right click on this cell
# click Create New View for Output # it will create new tab
# You will see the new window of dataframe

Confirmation

I just followed up the procedure for a new environment, and it works.
