I guess I'm missing something as I don't have the best understanding of how running the notebook over ssh would work. I was hoping it could work over the vscode extension since running ssh in vscode is user friendly, but I just can't get to load any marimo notebook through the vscode extension as mentioned in this issue https://github.com/marimo-team/vscode-marimo/issues/61.

Is it a known issue somewhere that I'm not seeing here or on Github where a Markdown cell doesn't stay a Markdown cell after saving and shutting down a notebook in an edit server?

I would love to embed Marimo snippets in my educational content created with Docusaurus. I use MDX files (markdown that contains react components for quizzes and the like) and they do not support plain HTML so no
div and marimo-iframe tags. I could create a React component that embeds marimo via an iframe, but I do not get it to resize automatically and I also enjoy embedding the python code directly. Any ideas?13 comments

My company builds streaming database https://github.com/timeplus-io/proton I'd like to enable auto-refresh for the notebook to load new data every X seconds. I tried the
mo.ui.refresh( label="Refresh", options=["1s", "5s", "10s", "30s"]) but it doesn't refresh the cells below. Is this a bug? I may try other approaches, such as cell.run() but it will be easier if the the refresh widget/button just work14 comments

This happens (seemingly) for no reason. I've attached a screenshot and logs from my running container since it's too lengthy for a message here.

Hi everyone, I have started working some months ago on a marimo file for municipal energy planning as part of a project in my consulting company.
This project has been growing bigger as other clients are becoming interested in the methodology and outputs.
I’m curious to know how best to onboard a new colleague with some clean documentation of the code. I know that some other colleagues of mine which work with more standard python files use mostly docstrings to stick as much as possible to the source code.
What are the best practices to do something similar in marimo ? Do you have any recommendations ?
Thanks for the help !

I currently subscribe for ChatLLM from Abacus AI which gives me access to ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and so on. However, I can't find a way to connect it to the marimo notebook AI completion. Is it possible at the moment or do I need to subscribe to one of the specific providers?

So I am having a BLAST with mo.ui.dataframe, can't tell you how much I LOVE this component. One thing I would be interested in is having an area where the users can select columns from the current results and use them to create a new dataframe where they perform rudimentary polars operations to create new columns. A simple scratchpad for them to test out their ideas.
I have installed the marimo using the command of
pip install marimo
succsefully, but when I check it using
marimo tutorial intro
It cannot work

Pretty sure it is the same problem from a few weeks ago, not sure if it ever went away then came back or if I just didn't run in a way that triggered it...
When I run each cell at a time it works with no problems, but if it tries to Run All Stale Cells it appears to be getting stuck in an infinite loop or something
(such as when starting up with the default settings)
Reproducing it: just
Tested on the latest marimo version from pypi

Hi everyone! Looking for some help / examples of how to think about and manage circular dependencies of cells / objects.
The most pressing use case is building a reactive dashboard for data exploration and labeling. We want to be able to see distributions of various categories in the data set and how they interact with each other. And also see some examples. This is a super common use case for us (and I'm sure others) and so I'm now trying to generalize the approach to create somewhat of a template. We've found really nice success with sharing with our clients for fast iteration and feedback on our longer term deliverables.
Current State:

We've found really nice success with sharing with our clients for fast iteration and feedback on our longer term deliverables.
Current State:
- We have N charts and each chart is created using the full data set and the count of objects that match each bar's category.
- We have a table underneath showing rows that match the active selection
- When clicking any of the bars, the table data will filter to the rows that match the selected bar's category for the bar's corresponding column
** It does this for all charts (as we want)
- (We also have some markdown to display example rows and a small labeling tool in there too)
- We have functions that will do these calculations and that's not an issue--the issue is creating some sort of object that will "listen" for the charts to be clicked, run the filtering functions, and then update the other charts. But then there is a circular dependency.

When I use this invocation to edit a marimo notebook for the first time, it asks me interactively to install missing python packages as they are needed, and writes dependency comments at the top of the
However, when I come back later to edit the same file with the same invocation, I get the interactive prompts to install packages again.
Is that how it's supposed to work?

Hey everybody,
I have started using Marimo recently and became a big fan.
Previously I have used getpass in Jupyter Notebooks to get user credentials to then use them to authenticate with Trino.
When I use getpass.getpass() in a marimo notebook it displays the provided password during the entire session. Is there any known alternative or workaround to that?
Thanks!

Is there a way to do this? I help run a shared cluster and we'd like to offer Marimo as an interactive app via Open OnDemand. This would mean it's all in the browser, there's no command line. If I start out with
ETA: I could start with
marimo tutorial intro , is there a way, from within the browser only, to open an existing notebook or create a new one? We currently offer jupyterlab and it has this ability but I wasn't able to figure this out in marimo. If not, please consider this a feature request.ETA: I could start with
marimo edit which gives me a blank notebook, but from there I don't see a way to open an existing notebook in the browser.2 comments

I often get invalid date in the dataframe explorer which always concerns me but then I realise the date is correct, I don't know if others have seen this much.
In my case I am using polars and turning a date string to a date object with a line like:

I couldn't think of another way to make a Pyplot diagram change other than with a state variable.
Here was my attempt:
In the following cells, the quick idea is: Make three vertices with labels "A", "B", "C", and a button that when clicked, will rotate the labels 120 degrees.
I'm just guessing at how to pass arguments to the
I can't make the function with no arguments since, then, the arguments need to be global in order for the function to reference them. And as far as I can tell, it's not possible to declare these variables global.

I think it would be very useful if the file explorer inside Marimo indicates which Marimo document you have currently opened. Sometimes if you are working with several docs, you get a bit loose on which one you are in the file explorer.
How can I get the value of an element in another cell, without triggering that cell when I change the value of said element? Say I have a number element defined in cell 1, and in cell 2 I want to read the value, when I click a button. If I mention the "number" element in cell2, it will immediately trigger a refresh of cell 2 when I update the value of cell 1.

Is it possible to change the MAX_OUTPUT_SIZE from within a running notebook? I tried to change the env var from within the notebook and it didn't work.
I was wondering if alternatively to it it's possible to catch the MAX_OUTPUT_SIZE warning before it happens and changing the warning or default behaviour? In my use case I want to catch it and offer the user to download the output as a file if the output is too big
