Add `interactive=False` parameter to plotting functions about langcheck HOT 6 OPEN

thanks for your help! I may try the #38 to get familiar with how langcheck render a graph by using plotly dash.

Hello, I am interested in this project. Is there anyone handle this issue right now? if not I want to handle it.

Hi @Vela-zz! Feel free to take on this issue. I think it's a bit non-trivial though. Another option to explore is if we can run multiple Plotly servers in one notebook kernel so that there can be multiple interactive charts running at the same time.

FYI this might be a slightly easier issue to take on: #38

Is using plotl.js plot the graph and embed them by "display, HTML, Javascript" module from IPython.core.display be an alternative solution for this?
I used BertViz before, they support multi-interacitve plot in one notebook, they plot their graph like this https://github.com/jessevig/bertviz/blob/master/bertviz/model_view.js
https://github.com/jessevig/bertviz/blob/master/bertviz/model_view.py

plot graph using chart.js or d3.js works most of time, but plotly.js is a little bit of weired.

Thanks for the reference to BertViz! I looked at their head_view implementation since it includes a dropdown:

https://github.com/jessevig/bertviz/blob/b42b61ec58f6fc72a55e987b24e55d141e80c4bb/bertviz/head_view.js#L70C4-L70C4

IIUC, the frontend stores all of the chart data in const config on load, and then modifies the chart client-side in JS when the user changes the dropdown.

Plotly is different and runs a Python server where new data is fetched from a Python endpoint every time the user types in the search boxes.

There's pros and cons to each approach. I'm not opposed to switching to a more client-side chart framework, but it would be a pretty major refactoring, so would prefer to see if there's an easier way we can extend Plotly Dash first.
