Plot adapter¶

The plot adapter can only be wired to outputs and replaces the result with a PLOTLYJSON, using a fixed visualization depending on the output type.

It can be used to get a quick visualization of an output instead of the json object. E.g. for a SERIES output it provides a simple single timeseries plot.

In hetida designer UI this is a quick way to visualize output data when testing components/workflows that are meant for automation, avoiding the need to add a visualization component operator to the workflow.

The PLOTLYJSON results are returned with the execution response in the same way the original outputs would be returned if Only Output, i.e. the direct provisioning adapter, was selected. The type in output_types_by_output_name is set to PLOTLYJSON and the value in output_results_by_output_name is the plotly json object.
