Description
The following block of code introduces nondeterminism in the mode
of a plotly express trace, because it involves iterating over a set
:
https://github.com/plotly/plotly.py/blob/v5.18.0/packages/python/plotly/plotly/express/_core.py#L1922-L1931
Among other things, this causes the output of plotly.graph_objects.Figure.to_html
to be non-deterministic, because sometimes the mode
for a line plot with markers is "lines+markers"
and other times it is "markers+lines"
. This makes it difficult to test for consistency of results during automated tests.
One potential solution might be to replace the following:
- trace_patch["mode"] = "+".join(modes)
+ trace_patch["mode"] = "+".join(sorted(modes))
Alternatively, modes
could be constructed as a list instead of a set.
