Leverage react component/editor for interactive code generation

Programmatically placing annotations/shapes/images etc is difficult. Ideally we'd have some sort of GUI to assist in generating the relevant code. Plotly cloud does offer a solution, but there are two main issues:

• Code generation works on the JSON-level, meaning any high-level R code gets lost.
• The UI is complex -- it tries to do everything plotly.js can do without making common things easy.

https://github.com/plotly/react-chart-editor was recently open-sourced and could provide infrastructure for generating "focused" and locally-rendered GUIs that could help you generate code for these use-cases. For example, something like:

library(plotly)
qplot(1:10) %>%
  ggplotly() %>%
  layout_edit("annotations")

Could pop-up a shiny gadget wrapper around the react editor specifically for adding and/or editing existing annotation(s). It seems likely that we could retain the high-level (input) code and add the relevant code necessary to recreate the manual edits:

qplot(1:10) %>%
  ggplotly() %>%
  add_annotations(
    text = "My label",
    x = 0,
    y = 1,
     ...
  )

首先阅读链接的 react-chart-editor 项目以及本 issue 中的 R 示例，尤其是提议的 layout_edit() 和 add_annotations() 流程。该 issue 没有指出 repository 文件、测试或验收标准；要完成这项工作，需要就一个聚焦的 GUI 达成一致，保留高层 R 代码，并定义如何验证生成的编辑。
