-Initial setup was done using:
-
-`conda skeleton pypi plotly --version 1.12.4`
-
-To test all imports, manually added following dependencies at runtime:
-```
-- matplotlib
-- numpy
-- ipython
-- ipywidgets
-```
-
-I also had to change all `module/submodule` in the test imports to `module.submodule`.
-
-Finally, build and test the created version:
-
-`conda build plotly`
-
-Currently, the updated (version 1.12.4) conda package sits at https://anaconda.org/chohner/plotly. There seems to be an old offial package at https://anaconda.org/plotly/plotly.
