Use Jdaviz for quick look analysis

[Ajb2307]

The Bokeh spectra viewer could be replaced with the JDAViz viewer. This may be beneficial since JDAViz is much more interactive.

Hello and thank you for your interest! Jdaviz is developed by STScI. Please contact STScI Help Desk if you have further concerns or questions.

We explored this at .Astro12 with @dr-rodriguez , @bmorris, and @havok2063. We think it's possible and a good idea to integrate jdaviz into the SIMPLE website! The idea would be to have a link on each result page which would launch a separate specviz window with all of the spectra for that source loaded. (This would not replace bokeh, but rather provide an option to do more with jdaviz.)

I started a jdaviz-sandbox branch to mess around in.

Dependencies:

• solara
• jdaviz
• jupyterlab - need jupyterlab, not jupyter

(More later...)

Some extra notes:

Running solara requires a python file with some specifications (see kelle#1)
Long term we should look at what it takes to have a second application (solara) running alongside the flask website on Reclaim Cloud.
We would need to do some extensive testing to make sure things work as expected.

Some key issues to sort out:

• How to run solara in Reclaim Cloud
• How to send the target information to load:
  • Do we update the python file solara is loading?
  • Do we create a new python file?
• How do we invoke solara from the flask application?

Chatted with @bmorris3 today and we discussed the option of adding a button which launches a jupyter notebook and loads the spectra and jdaviz rather than trying to embed jdaviz into the website. (Brett, please correct me if I'm misunderstanding what the launch button does.)

@dr-rodriguez , thoughts?

[dr-rodriguez]

I have no objections to that approach and it'll probably be easier that way than trying to integrate to our existing interface (or change it with the extra requirements).

[kelle]

Do you know how to do it?

[dr-rodriguez]

I don't, but I imagine the questions above from #139 (comment) would be relevant, particularly if we decide to stick with the solara prototype we were able to do at dotAstro

Launching it from a UI button should be okay to do, I'm more worried about the load times and the server being overloaded. It already struggles if having to load more than a few results pages co-currently.
